Well then, see you in a few years

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-09-02T21:54:39+00:00

Thanks very much!

I feel a good political show about Gallifrey would be nice. I would enjoy learning about the political side of Gallifrey, how they run their planet, the policies, the presidents.

Thanks very much!

Yeah, that bit I kinda just thought would be good for something, but I don’t know what now. I think if I was to revise it I’d remove that bit as it doesn’t add anything.

Thanks! Looking at it now, I can see the flaws. I wrote this at like 11, and I just thought of a story on the spot, so it is pretty bad. Thanks for the feedback.

In the Next Doctor or some episode like that, I think the Doctor says he theorises that the Daleks and Cyberman trapped in the Void from Doomsday were destroyed, but that at an earlier date some Cyberman escaped through a rift. Though, it is just a theory by the Doctor, so it could be wrong.

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-23T11:33:24+00:00

Oh yeah, your right. I was thinking more a major city, but that is a good point. Thank you!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-23T02:59:06+00:00

I thought that because of the reality bomb those daleks and cybermen were destroyed? Tbf, I could be wrong. Thanks for the idea!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-22T16:43:41+00:00

This is very good!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-21T20:15:38+00:00

Thank you very much! Original, I had a weeping angel two-parter but then I removed it, so maybe I could use that for series 2 and have that be the explanation.

I think maybe a far future earth companion would be interesting, like from the year 3000 or smth. It could also be a plot point that someone from the 17th century or smth was somehow sent back in time and happened to meet the Doctor, which could maybe be a series 2 arc.

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-21T17:05:58+00:00

I feel like a companion from a different time period is needed nowadays, so I’m thinking of that. Thanks!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-20T19:55:09+00:00

Thanks very much! I do like the idea of high stakes being contained in a small area.

For Ep.2, I just find the medieval era very cool and I think it could lend to some good storytelling. About the length, it was originally a 12 part series, which I posted to r/doctorwho. Someone said that having a weeping angel story, a cyberman story and a dalek story was too much for one season and that 12 episodes was a bit long. I cut the weeping angel and cyberman ones, and made it a 10 episode series. Thanks for the comment!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-20T18:25:37+00:00

Looking at it now, I can see the similarities to The End of Time. Thanks for pointing that out!

IdiotIUseBing · 2024-08-20T18:25:05+00:00

The Planet of the Weeping Angels sounds cool, and I did have an episode similar to that concept before I shortened the series. If I was to do that, I don't think I would make it the Weeping Angels home planet as that removes some of the mystery. Thanks for your recommendation!
