We already have a spoilers and rumours thread, this isn't that. What would you like to see? And no venting on Jodie being the Doctor, take that nonsense elsewhere. She IS the Doctor, whether you like it or not.
I'd like a little scene, shortly after regeneration, where she looks for clothes in the wardrobe, because 12's stuff hangs on her, and she goes through stuff belonging to former companions, finally settling on something belonging to Romana perhaps. With stops along the way to hold up something from Tegan or Peri or Jo and exclamations of "Oh, no, that'll never do".

I'd like a new Time Lord villain to appear or, if it has to be a Time Lord from the classic series, someone other than the Master/Missy. I'd like to see the Monk make a return or maybe Chibnall could build off Rassilon's exile in "Hell Bent" and have him return to cause havoc.
I'd love an Agatha Christie style mystery story. And, as always, I'd like a pure historical story - Chibnall's already shown he's not afraid to make some bold changes, so here's hoping that extends to storytelling.
I don't really have any preferences for the companion. Just someone different from any of the other New Who companions would be nice (possibly from a different time period).

Far less nostalgia & back referencing.

I want Nardole to stay on. This. I'm pretty easy. I just want to watch good stories. I want to see the Doctor doing exciting, noble and difficult stuff. I long to finish each episode wanting my own TARDIS to skip ahead a week so I can watch the next episode. I want new monsters that engage and frighten. I want to see old monsters in stories that are told with a different twist. I just want Doctor Who to be great. |

I'd have thought Ace would keep that. And what I'm talking about isn't 13's look, just some temporary clothes chosen until she's got time to sort herself. I'm assuming she'll be in the middle of something after all. |

Also, I wouldn't like all that many classic foes in it. One or two's fine... But, if I had to pick TWO, it would be the Sontarans and the Krynoids. Sontarans in a space sort of adventure. Krynoids for a proper Earth invasion.
The Weeping Angels might also be good cos they aren't oversaturated, unlike the Daleks and Cybermen.

They kind of are though, since they're up to a point limited. I mean you're not going to see a starship of Angels invading somewhere. |

Ideally I'd love to see 13 and whatever companion head off into space, like 4 back in the day, and just see new and amazing things. Earth is done for now.

I'd be more interested in a kind of base-under-siege story with the Angels. Or maybe something epic, such as a desomation of Earth story, like The Dalek Invasion Of Earth and The Web Of Fear. Actually, that's a story I'd really like to see done in the new series: the Doctor and Nardole arrive in Present-Day Earth and the whole place is deserted... then the plot starts to unravel itself. |

I'd personally like the occasional visit to present-day Earth, but not stuff like the Monk trilogy, which was a bit OTT for a mid-series story. And I mean like once or twice a season and only when it's needed to fulfill a story. They should have epic stories more along the lines of The Waters Of Mars, The Doctor Falls and The Caves Of Androzani. Have stories that feel very, very new and fresh. Throw the Doctor and his/her companion right into the action and put them through a lot. Or just have it be exciting and have the audience on the edge of its seat the whole time. Make the show unpredictable every week. That - I feel - was the problem with some stories this series - like The Eaters Of Light and Knock Knock - which feel lightweight. In the ever-changing TV environment, stories like that make Doctor Who rather old fashioned. Make the show an anthology series, but also make each episode feel special in some respect and have development to the Doctor and his/her companion. |

I would not mind someone else having a crack at the Weeping Angels.

A songle 12 episode story a la Children of Earth. Not as the opening season for 13. Jodie will be scrutinised to perform as the Doctor in a variety of different ways, so while I love the idea it should be for the season after. |

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Some great stories of the standard set by the last couple of years: I can cope with a little unevenness (most seasons from the classic era were up and down like rollercoasters in terms of quality stories) but as long as we get stories of the caliber of most of Series 9 and 10 (this is what I want to see, naysayers!) I'll be a happy fan.

Zero Earth stories har har har
Seriously though, I'd love for them to avoid building stories around the Doctor's genitals.

Cor, it'd certainly be a different programme if they can't achieve that latter one. ANNOUNCER: And tonight, Jodie Whittaker takes over the TARDIS in the new series debut episode "Genitals of the Doctor" |
