genuinely the doctor used to be vegetarian & went back to eating meat at some point during the time war. the more you know!!

[penny-anna]

more specifically the Doctor was a meat eater and then had a run in w a group of aliens who wanted to eat humans and was so freaked out he stopped eating meat and then being vegetarian was continuously part of their characterisation (mostly in the EU) up until the ninth Doctor era bcos Russell T Davies consciously decided to walk it back

[penny-anna]

my personal feeling on this on a characterisation level is that there is a logic to the Doctor going vegetarian and then at some point during or post Time War going 'fuck it' and resuming eating meat. & i do also think the Doctor being a hypocrite w inconsistent morals is simply a part of their character.

[literallyaflame]

i think they should put doctor who in the public domain and let us all start taking cracks at it on youtube

Imagine being Nyssa and spending a whole season with a woman u have a tremendous crush on who’s made it your whole teams sole objective to get to this oh so mysterious and anticipating place on earth she won’t ever shut up about and then when you finally arrive you look around and see that it’s the concrete slob of Heathrow airport damn I’d leave her ass there too

not my circus not my monkeys but my home planet has taken away my only means of leaving this circus and the monkeys here found me and took me in when I was deeply unwell and babbling about my shoe. so actually I am quite fond of the circus and I have become the monkeys' scientific advisor

Fiveainley is so funny bc they look like a poshish gay and a kinky supervillain so no one expects their dynamic is literally

The Divorce uses the definite article bc it’s haunting the narrative of the era

[ID: a picture of the Master (played by Anthony Ainley) next to a picture of the Fifth Doctor. An arrow pointing from the Doctor to the Master reads, "Pls kys im so fucking serious". An arrow pointing from the Master to the Doctor reads, "Finally! Now that I have a functional body I can legally challenge The Divorce". /end ID]

The next doctor who should be a dog (golden retriever) and hold his sonic screwdriver (it looks like a bone) in his mouth and he still goes on adventures in the tardis (all the buttons look like dog toys) and he wears a dumb collar that gives him an old fashioned robot voice so he can monologue about time and space and tragedy but he is also a dog so the cybermen would throw a ball and he would go after it

[curioscurio]

this is my vision

[snickersnek]

There's nothing in the rules that says a Time Lord can't be a dog

Update on plans for the future of Doctor Who

Doctor Who remains an important part of the BBC

the TL:DR:

Christmas special cancelled

Russell T Davies and his production company are leaving the show

RTD has confirmed on Instagram that there was never a script or proper plan for the Christmas special

The show is going out to competitive tender.

For anyone who is confused as to what 'competitive tender' means:

Caveat that my knowledge of tendering comes from a completely different industry but roughly speaking: other TV production companies will now have an opportunity to pitch their plan for making Doctor Who to the BBC and how much funding they would need and the BBC will give the show to whatever company can do it best and cheapest. Show will remain with the BBC, they are just looking for a new contractor for the production.

[penny-anna]

Essentially whether this is good or bad news really depends on the likely outcome of the tender and i have no idea what the likely outcome is.

the best case scenario here is that the BBC find a new contractor who can make an acceptable version of Doctor Who for less money and in a few years time we get a whole new version of the show with a new Doctor etc.

and then obviously the worst case scenario is that no-one wants the show or can meet the BBC's funding requirements and then you know. Wilderness Years 2!!!!

*chronic-fatigues your doctor*..... i was so fascinated with seeing a doctor in a wheelchair in the zero room story arc.... i loved that he struggled with excessive fatigue after his regeneration and couldn't get around for a while. it was interesting....5th doctor you are an ambulatory wheelchair user... in my mind.

90% of the reason The Time Meddler is so good is that they absolutely nailed the characterisation. The actual plot is very sparse and mostly consists of the TARDIS team going between the village and the monastery and farcically managing to miss each other every time. But Hartnell is at his scheming hee hee hoo hoo best, and the monk is the perfect foil for his doctor. Vicki is cheeky and assertive and doesn't let Steven take the lead just because he's a man. Steven's skeptical and brash and still kind of crazy after years of isolation. They've known each other for five minutes and already they have the cutest sibling dynamic. 'You can have some blackberries or some blackberries' I LOVE THEMMM

Couldn't find this clip anywhere on the internet, in any of the Master fancams, despite frantic searching, so I clipped it myself. It's one of my absolute favourite Three-Master interactions. This serial is full of golden moments between these two but this, I feel, is the best.
