With the release of a new unbound set with Colin Baker I've been thinking about more unbound ideas with classic series Doctors.
What if the Fifth Doctor didn't save Peri and survived in Caves of Androzani?
What if the Eighth Doctor didn't die in the night of the Doctor and started a pacifist resistance to overthrow Rassilon and find a different way to stop the Daleks?
What if the War Doctor got to travel outside of the time war?
What if the Sixth Doctor accidently killed someone during his post regeneration trauma?
What if the Tenth Doctor convinced the Saxon Master to regenerate and kept him prisoner in the TARDIS while travelling the universe in an attempt to rehabilitate the new incarnation?

What if The Master never left Gallifrey?
With the Doctor out of the picture having left the planet with his granddaughter, I imagine The Master would steadily make his way up through the the ranks of Time Lord society manipulating and killing all those who stand in his way until he assumes the role of President.
Naturally, he would be played by Geoffrey Beevers and I suppose if you want to, you could include cameos from other known renegades. Hushed talk of their being a Time Lord who is suffering from regenerative dissonance etc.

What if the Doctor of War was the Doctor of Daleks?
The Time Lords finally crossed The Line, a loose coalition of other races stood up to them and were to a species retconned. The Doctor too died that day. A new man walked out of the ashes of dead timelines and declared war on the Time Lords alongside the one race that might conceivably stand a chance against the, -the Daleks.

I am very interested in what happened in the universe after the Time War ended. No Time Lords, no Daleks. There is big void that surely a new power would want to occupy.
Both the Time Lords and the Daleks left behind their ancient knowledge and technology that would be sort by many. Especially their weapons of war.
And there are time-locked, or similarly effected, worlds to be helped.
The above isn’t an unbound scenario as such, because I think the Doctor would have felt duty bound to try and clear up some of the mess left by the war. What makes it Unbound is that it seems Christopher Eccleston wants to play a lighter version of the Ninth Doctor and not have his adventures clouded by the aftermath of the war, therefore my Unbound idea is for the War Doctor not to have regenerated at the end of the Day of the Doctor. (Just ignore that scene of him inside the Tardis, perhaps it wasn’t a full regeneration, instead he was reenergised). He forges on, trying to make amends, the Doctor trying to heal the Scars of War.

I actually had an idea that might fit for an Unbound story shortly after I woke up today. I have no idea where it came from. Maybe because I was listening to a 5th Doctor audio right before going to sleeping preceding night?
Anyway, here's the idea: Adric Must Die! -- basically, imagine the cover of Eldrad Must Die and swap out the characters. Adric is back -- and this time he's a zombie!? Commanding an army of skeletons?!

Someone on the new Faction Paradox forum mentioned that if the Daleks had kept drilling their hole to the centre of the Earth, they'd have eventually hit the Primord goo (or Yssgaroth taint, in FP terms) and likely been transformed by it... There's probably a story in that!

What if Castrovalva was the Fifth Doctor and Peri? What if The Twin Dilemma was Sixie with Nyssa, Tegan and Adric? The latter in particular has always been a fantasy of mine. Could the regeneration get away with the same amount of trauma, strangulations and all, with a different team?

There’s persistent rumour that a certain three letter acronymned individual who works for the BBC is less enamoured with “what if …” stories and requested that BF put a stop to them. |

I think the Unbound range's reputation suffered from fans thinking it was not 'what if' but 'who if'

Who and why would not want any new unbound story's and where did this rumour start from? |

I think it's gotta be true, because it's far too baffling of a take to be made-up. Doctor Who, at its basemist essence, is nothing but What If stories.
