Hey everyone,
So, what do you think will happen in Only The Monstrous - and beyond?
I can't help but wonder if we'll see the TARDIS reject The Doctor for his activities during the Time War, only for it to take a liking to The Doctor's new companion, but still being rather tempermental about The Doctor's activities himself.

Excited about this series, hoping for more than these 12 stories, hopefully we get a second set or more. Wouldnt evem mind for them to do CCs or Short trips to explore as much of this time period as possible much like Mcgann's its wide open

It'd be nice if the Alex Macqueen Master makes a reappearance. After all, the Time Lords "resurrected" him for the purpose of fighting in the Time War, so now's the opportunity to see him in action. And if Engines of War is anything to go by, maybe Derek Jacobi for the war's latter years?

I still have this feeling that the first boxset somehow follows on from Night of the Doctor, at least for the Time Lords, I'm not sure about the Doctor himself though. All this talk of the Doctor being dead and the Time Lords being rallied in his name, the Doctor may have gone 'off-piste' for a while following the incident on Karn.
I also think that there are parts where Hurt is made to sound younger, perhaps he pulls an 'Orbis' and spends a fair while away from the war. I wouldn't blame him.
As for the future, well I think The Neverwhen may involve the 'Neverweres', so at some point I think the 'Could-Have-Been-King' may be realised. The Master might turn up, but a MacQueen to Jacobi regeneration would be brilliant.

Not sure what you mean. The Time Lords aren't in Night of the Doctor. |

Not sure what you mean. The Time Lords aren't in Night of the Doctor. In the sense that the Doctor 'dying' on Karn may be a recent thing for them, whilst the 'man with no name' himself may have disappeared off into time struggling with his identity. It's just the impression I'm getting from the trailer. |

The impression I get is that Cardinal Servelan is baiting "The Doctor of War" (according to Blogtor) when she says to his face "if only the Doctor was here".

That makes sense; NOTD acts as if the war is nearly over, yet the War Doctor fought in it for a long time, so maybe War and Eight overlap. |

Given Time Lords age slower than humans, and it was circa "Alien" Hurt we saw at the end of "Night of the Doctor", he fought for a long time.

when i heard the trailer the war doctor didnt sound very warriory . the disdain the 11th doctor showed the war doctor when we first saw him made me think he went into the time war with gun blazing. the trailer made him sound like just another doctor not a warrior not a soldier.

Highly anticipating these boxsets.
At some point down the line, I hope they'll consider doing some younger War Doctor stories. They don't even necessarily need to get Hurt for them, just someone who sounds a bit like he did when he was younger. It wouldn't even really be a recast, since we never got to see early WD.

Clara, who knows thr Doctor better than just about anyone, said the Doctor's bloody campaign of revenge would stop at the first crying child and he readily agreed. The thought of mass infanticide didn't stop the War Doctor, QED the others despise him. |

The count of kids on Gallifery. Was it children or people, though? I forget. |

Just read in the latest Vortex, there's no follow on from 'Night of the Doctor', so bang goes that theory. They didn't want to risk contradictions further down the line etc.

Wouldn't it be just wild if BF could snag Timothy Dalton to appear in one of these sets as Rassilon? Perhaps a story about the return/resurrection of Rassilon to lead Gallifrey? Now, imagine if they managed that.... and played out the story of The Master's (Macqueen?) involvement in the war. Perhaps some villainous arrangement between The Master and Lord President Rassilon, that the War Doctor is none too pleased about? *sigh* It's fun to dream  |

The count of kids on Gallifery. Was it children or people, though? I forget. It was the number of children on Gallifrey. I love the way Tennant snarls that out. The eleventh Doctor is dithering in the background and the tenth just pours out his anger in one line, and then directs it not at War (who he knows hasn't done it yet, given he remembers regenerating just afterwards) but at eleven for apparently forgetting their greatest sin. |

As for "what you'd like to hear..."
War, Leela and K9.
War meeting a past self.
War meeting Jago and Litefoot.
War pulling a "it's for the greater good" and blowing up someone's planet.
An inversion of the traditional "someone is murdered, the Doctor arrives and is blamed, and goes on to find the real culprit" where he IS the killer, because the victim was/will become a Dalek agent.
Vaarga plants.
