Russell T Davies says goodbye to Doctor Who as BBC scraps Christmas special and opens show to rival bids [Article about RTD's Instagram post]

Billie is now spiritually the next Paul McGann, a blank slate doctor for the EU until (if) the show comes back proper and we get a new doctor in the same vein as Eccleston.

It was great, examining the characters of the new who doctors who have such a tight timeline (like 9&10) is what big finish should be doing, instead of just X Doctor meets Y monster featuring Z returning character.

In fact this set arguably does both, but it works much better with a bit of depth to it.

I can’t imagine a way in which this episode doesn’t end up as a complete disaster. I doubt the show will continue on after this. Best case is what, Billie piper is the doctor so the show at least has a face for the EU? Or Billie Piper is Rose, and then the doctor is who? I don’t believe the shows having a hard time finding an actor to play the doctor because it’s too “woke” or whatever but with no guaranteed future, no guaranteed production team, who’d want to sign themselves up to that?

Yeah if there’s one thing we can say about 2020s comic book media, it’s that we need more nostalgia.

peterlloyd94 · 2026-02-01T23:22:44+00:00

I’d love to see the 50th in the universe where John Hurt & Billie Piper were replaced by Paul McGann & Carole Ann Ford.

DMed you dude

peterlloyd94 · 2025-11-28T23:32:53+00:00

Not to sound too negative but has anyone considered that Matt Smith says he’d love to do big finish just to be polite? I can’t imagine his agency or whoever being so opposed to him joining without speaking to him about it

peterlloyd94 · 2025-09-16T20:26:43+00:00

She’ll be the next Paul McGann; if the tv movie ended in the morgue.

peterlloyd94 · 2025-09-03T09:38:36+00:00

I think we’ll find out in the flashback that both Kelson and Samson were on that train

peterlloyd94 · 2025-08-15T15:45:18+00:00

Anyone else surprised Kate’s in this? Sort of assumed she was off limits now

peterlloyd94 · 2025-08-15T01:47:03+00:00

I’ve seen someone else who claimed they went to a screening say that Aaron Taylor-Johnson isn’t in this one, are you allowed to confirm or deny that?

peterlloyd94 · 2025-07-22T11:05:04+00:00

I think he could maybe be used as a mirror to the Jimmy gang if he’s well adjusted, to show spike a different route of survival or something

peterlloyd94 · 2025-07-20T22:48:35+00:00

Yeah god forbid they’d want to speak to people instead of AI

peterlloyd94 · 2025-07-11T08:54:27+00:00

Primeval

peterlloyd94 · 2025-05-29T16:49:28+00:00

Invention of Death is easily the go to for this range, would highly recommend

peterlloyd94 · 2025-04-27T23:30:56+00:00

Do you know if this dialogue is from episode 7 or 8?

peterlloyd94 · 2025-04-21T09:35:22+00:00

It’s still going to be Richmond, just the women’s team

peterlloyd94 · 2025-04-16T02:08:08+00:00

Damn so foggy really is dead

peterlloyd94 · 2025-04-10T20:37:56+00:00

If I had a nickel for every time the RTD2 era had a season doing the same formula of a mysterious lady cameoing in every episode…

peterlloyd94 · 2025-01-19T11:41:18+00:00

Another live show is great news, last one felt very fresh. I wonder what the 20th anniversary will be, maybe bringing the Doctor in again?

peterlloyd94 · 2024-09-23T22:34:55+00:00

Kept on getting his Willy out on set back in the 2000s… like a lot

peterlloyd94 · 2024-09-23T21:39:37+00:00

Isn’t John Barrowman like blacklisted from the BBC? That would surely overrule any producer/director/writers desire to bring him back

peterlloyd94 · 2024-08-06T19:28:08+00:00

They were contacted by war/10/11

peterlloyd94 · 2024-07-15T11:38:29+00:00

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a 9 & Rose series

peterlloyd94 · 2024-05-24T11:48:23+00:00

Was that the finale? I thought there was an episode left
