ahhh i’ve been away for some time but i figured I should give an update so that those who care aren’t in the dark, i’ve had to take a break from tumblr due to a family emergancy, I’ll still be gone for a few more days, but i should be back on tumblr from next week! i’m so sorry i’ve just left without any notice! Hopefully that helps a tad! x
I am answering the other asks I recieved don’t worry, it’s just that one’s practically turned into a...long piece of...meta. and I need to sleep now but. I’ll get to them in the morning!
so apparently moffat wanted to leave with season 10 but old chibs didn’t want christmas to be his first episode so the bbc were like ‘aw man guess christmas is cancelled then’ but a very drunk steven moffat said NO GUYS ILL DO IT ITS FINE because its t r a d i t i o n but also because it would have meant doctor who could loose its christmas timeslot for good.
So he went and asked capaldi to do one more episode and basically wrote yet another episode after having been trying to leave doctor who since at least 2015 like what a life

Already answered that one here!
16. Favourite TARDIS interior?
Objectively? The current one is clearly the best. It’s just stunning. I mean the s9 and after version with the orange colour scheme and the extra roundels. Watching s7b and seeing that console room look so cold and mechanical and bare just feels wrong (though I know that is the point!)
This all said, my favourite is actually Matt Smith’s steampunk TARDIS from s5-7A. It’s quite madcap and cluttered but when I look at that TARDIS I see home. I see Amy and Rory chilling playing darts, while The Doctor potts away at the console on his little swing. I see them whizzing along the glass floor as they happily dash off to another adventure. I see Amy and Rory and River having a #familydiscussion about The Doctor at the base of the time rotar, or Amy and Rory sitting on the stairs leaning against the banisters asking about bedrooms. It’s mostly down to the domesticated thematicsof the Pond Era rather than the design (tho the warm colour scheme always helps) but that TARDIS just makes me feel at home. So. That one!
17. How much classic who have you seen
All of The First and Second Doctor, including the missing serials and their audio reconstructions, the first season or so of the Third Doctor and then the odd serial from other Doctors (The Time Warrior/Terror of the Zygons/The Caves of Androzani).
Honestly I adored One and Two’s era. Adored the stories, however daft, (yes that includes The Web Planet and…the ICONIQUE The Feast of Steven….and who can forget The Gunfighters like m8 let me tell u right now I had The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon in my head for weeks), all the characters, (Ian!!! Barbara!!! Susan!!! Vicky!!! Steven!!! Dodo!!! Ben!!! Polly!!! Jamie!!! Victoria!!! Zoe!!!), most importantly I loved the variety! Proper flat-out historical episodes about the Aztecs and the French Revolution and The Crusades and Rome and Troy and China. Proper alien worlds and spaceships and…fiction land…And those War Zones from The War Games. Not only hugely varried settings but hugly creative ones too.
And then Troughton regenerates into Pertww and we’re stuck on Earth with none of that varety for seasons with a Doctor I just…don’t like…so naturally I’ve stopped one episode into The Mind of Evil which is a pity bc I love Jo Grant, but I just can’t get into it. I’ll pick it up again one day but…ug.

Thoughts on the current Doctor 3. Favourite Quote
I was so so tempted to say that speech from The Doctor Falls about kindness, but then I realised what my favourite quote actually is, and I mean...it really couldn’t be anything else:
“What if you were really old, and really kind and alone? Your whole race dead. No future. What couldn't you do then? If you were that old, and that kind, and the very last of your kind, you couldn't just stand there and watch children cry....All that pain and misery and loneliness, and it just made it kind.”
I actually got a little teary just copying and pasting that quote oh. my. gosh. The Beast Below is Moffat’s most underrated masterpiece - I won’t get into that now because I’d be here for days raving about it - instead, I’ll just say that...this is it. In retrospect, this is it. This is the episode, this is the moment in which Moffat establishes his vision. His game-plan. His Doctor Who. That glorious speech in The Doctor Falls? it all comes from this, from a little (and yet...so huge) thing Amy Pond once said to The Doctor a long time away on Starship UK. It says everything we need to know about The Doctor under Steven Moffat, it says everything we need to know about not just Amy Pond (whose most shining character trait, much like The Doctor themselves, is her kidness) but about The Companion under Steven Moffat. “My friends have always been the best of me.” says The Doctor, and they have! Clara changing The Doctor’s mind about Gallifrey? Clara’s wonderful speech to baby-doc in Listen? It all comes from The Beast Below. This is where everything I hold dear about the Moffat era derives from, how could any other quote ever come out in-front!?
13. First story you saw on TV
Rose! I #SatDownWithTheFamily as a tiny eight-year-old on the 26th March 2005 at 7:00pm to watch what I assumed was...a medical show about some Doctor who lived in a house that was super big inside or...something...I had no clue what I was getting myself into, but I’d truly never seen anything like it on TV before and around 20 minutes in I was flat-out hooked for. life. I don’t think I’ve ever fallen for somthing so fast ever lol. Like..light switch fast. In the span of 45 minutes I suddenly like...had found my first ever real, proper, obsession. I can to this day remember being that person who just wouldn’t shut up about it at school that next Monday morning, I drove everyone MAD!
28. Anything you want to see in the next season
I have IDEAS.
Primarily, I want change. I know that goes against the grain of ye-olde-docteur-who-fan but the changes in the show are so so SO exciting to me. I love Moffat’s era with my whole heart, but I am so here for a new...everything. New intro, new TARDIS, new logo, new theme music, (new composer altogether?) Series 5 is seven years old now, and every time I watch it I still get that “EVERYTHING IS SO DIFFERENT OMG” feeling that I got when The Eleventh Hour first aired, it’s timeless!
In terms of like..specifics...I really would love for the show to expand it’s characters a little and give us more of an ensemble cast. A group of 4 companions + Thirteen would be perfect I think. If Game of Thrones/The Sopranos’ HBO style storytelling has given audiences anything beyond a fetish for....bleak TV, it’s an appreication for exploring how a range of fleshed-out characters interact with eachother - I’m not Game of Thrones’ biggest fan at all but even I squealed a little when Jon finally met Dany. I think Chibnall’s work on Broadchurch really lends itself to that kind of showrunning. We could have a companion from the past (@ Chibs I think Helen of Troy would make a wonderful Who companion Just Saying Just Saying), our routine Contemporary Earth Companion and then maybe a pair of siblings from a future colony or something.
If Chibs only has one companion, then I would want them to stick to a young-ish Contemporary Earth based character. The audince surrogate thing works wonderfully. and I’d like to see it stay. Contrary to popular opinion I do think this specific companion-prototype should be a male companion this time around. I think it could make for some quietly revolutionary storytelling. Just imagine a wistful 20-something London boy dreaming about space and exploring the universe Luke Skywalker style. He’s bubbly and energetic, rather than hyper-masculine and dashing. He’s in total awe of The Doctor and sees her as his role-model. Picture that, the young man being mentored and inspired and shown the wonder of the universe by the woman. That’s an exciting, fresh, and subversive dynamic, and a dynamic fully worth exploring inmy opinion.
Also, tight and expansive full-out season story arcs!!!! I know many fans want a return to flat-out standalones but gosh TV can do so much better than just an unconnected bunch of stories now. Let’s have a proper, running, story arc ala Series 5. A little like The Dalek Master Plan or The Keys of Marinus but even bigger in scope and in stakes. Let’s go Chibs don’t ltet m down!
29. Thoughts on the current Doctor
My absolute, without-a-doubt favourite Doctor. So gentle, and righteous and not the least egotistical. With a clear and defined character arc that’s simple enough for guest writers to not...fuck up and cause inconsistency. (The Lie of the Land notwithstanding)
Also, the most wonderful Doctor is so delicately and completely genuinly masterfully played by the most wonderful human being in Peter Capaldi. So...even more amazing. He’s not only a magical actor, but he’s a magical person and a magical ambassador for the show. I’m going to be so sad seeing him go.

Twelve Days of Twelve || July 27: Peter Capaldi Appreciation Day.
I was actually filming in Prague, I’m doing the BBC’s adaptation of 'The Three Musketeers’ over there, playing Cardinal Richelieu. I had my phone on silent so I missed the call. It was my dear agent. I rang her up, and said ‘It’s me’ and she said, ‘Hello Doctor.’ I just started to laugh and I haven’t stopped laughing since.
doctor who meme: [4/6] companions, amelia pond
“There’s a little girl waiting in a garden. She’s going to wait a long while, so she’s going to need a lot of hope. Go to her. Tell her a story. Tell her that if she’s patient, the days are coming that she’ll never forget. Tell her she’ll go to see and fight pirates. She’ll fall in love with a man who’ll wait two thousand years to keep her safe. Tell her she’ll give hope to the greatest painter who ever lived. And save a whale in outer space. Tell her, this is the story of Amelia Pond. And this is how it ends.”
I just cried over Amy Pond lol
It’s okay. Don’t you worry. I’ll remember it.
All I’m saying is that my #FierceScottishLove for Amy Pond is unbrokn and unfaltering and she will literally forever be my favourite Doctor Who companion of all time she is literally TheBest™
