/who/ - Doctor Who General

From previous thread:

>>87086503
Cloister and 4
FNA and 5
Cats and 6
Rob and 7
McGanon and 8
Lymerence and 9
Edge and 10
Neo and 11
Immigrant and 12
Guy and 13

The rest are paired with 1, 2 and 3, because they're dead.

>>87087927
Sure, especially Capaldi Who, but...I think 11 would be a handful to be a companion to. I don't want to get turned into a plastic robot, or pregnant woman, or splintered time girl.

>>87092858
I believe you.

Which Classic Who story, other than The Horns of Nimon, is the most genuinely hilarious in its awfulness?

>>87088157
I agree that Moffat's Mary Sue bullshittery needs to be retconned (as does RTD's, for that matter). Everything else is him being an edgy kid.

>>87093006
Nothing "needs to be retconned"

If Chibnall hates a story that much he can ignore it and the effect will be the exact same.

>>87091396
I think it'll be cancelled relatively soon but not because of Whittaker.

>>87095856
>not liking zagreus

>>87095856
Yeah, you need to abandon all expectations of it being a proper multi Doctor story now. Your only hope of enjoying any of it is to just accept it as a weird lore story with them all guest starring.

>>87095856
I do. Why should every anniversary be the exact same? We have so many indulgent fanwank anniversaries. The Light at the End is right there when we just want a comfy reunion special. Zagreus has a lot of flaws but I applaud Big Finish for actually pushing boundaries and trying something different. Change is the essence of Doctor Who.

>>87095878
>liking Zagreus
This is a new level of contrarianism.

>>87094348
/who/ wants no part of this either.

I rewatched Dinosaurs on a Spaceship. And I liked it. I know Nefertiti and hunter and Soloman are barely sketched, but if you watch this ep as a blockbuster - which it's supposed to be - it's entertaining.

>>87095898
Trouble is, not every new idea is automatically a good idea.Something can be new AND misconceived.

Merci beaucoup, monsieur Neo. I'm rather relieved that most people seem to have agreed with what I said, last thing I'd want to do is to seem like I trying was speaking for /who/ (not that I was attempting to do that) without having a fucking clue what was going on.

>>87099976
"Technically, it shouldn't be possible that he remembers. Each time he burns himself up to power the teleport, he prints a new version of the man he was, with only the memories he had on arrival. So what does he mean, when he says he remembers, when he clearly can't? Well first, memory is a funny thing - we manufacture memories all the time. Stories your parents told you about you when you were a baby become memories you can't really have. The party you remember going to at school, and then discover you could never have attended. Memories become stories, the Doctor tells us. But I think stories become memories, too. So in that moment when the Doctor figures out the only way to break through the wall is to keep making new versions of himself, and puts it together with the fact that seven thousands years have passed without time travel, and realises that, oh dear God, he's been doing that very thing for a long time, it feels like he remembers. In that plunging moment, he feels the weight of the centuries behind, and the horror of the millennia ahead. In other words, he makes a memory where one can't exist.

That's 1 explanation. Personally, I think there's more to it. Remember, he's trapped inside his own confession dial. The castle chambers, and the monster slouching towards him, are composed of his own worst nightmares, and his nightmares are composed of his worst memories. In a world designed to suck your bad dreams from your mind and feed them back to you, isn't it possible that his worst day - the one he's living right now, again and again - is hanging in the air around him? He's trapped in the Wi-Fi of his bad dreams, and he can't shut them out.

So, yes, I suppose he has 4.5 billion years worth of memories in his head. But loads of the details are identical, so for the Doctor's sake, let's assume that a lot of data compression is possible! He's the Doctor - surely he's as clever as a digital download (especially as he sort of is one now)."

I really, really, really wish we could get "An Adventure in Space and Time" type docudramas of not only every actor for the Doctor, but all the major players in Doctor Who history, like Holmes and JNT and RTD and Moff and all the rest. There's so much crazy stuff and stories to tell.

>He's trapped in the Wi-Fi of his bad dreams, and he can't shut them out.

I wrote a shit trip around it

In Heaven Sent, after the Doctor gets out of the water he sees a copy of his clothes waiting for him, dry, in front of the fire, and as we learn later this was from the previous version of him to go through the Confession dial. Since it was left by the last version, I love to imagine the first time the Doctor arrived in the confession dial, with the last three quarters of the episode him being completely nude

>>87100050
Ah, so I catastrophically misunderstood the episode! Oh well, I still enjoyed the majority of the Moffat era unlike him, so I'm still winning overall

Nah I don't think you misunderstood it, Moff is just offering a different interpretation. If he wanted it to only be taken one way, he wouldn't have written it in a way you could take it different ways.

>>87100219
I'm pretty sure Moff has offered a clever explanation for this too, but I prefer the idea of naked 12 scrambling around the castle.

Yeah, I got bored last night and since the wiki doesn't have any proper EDA pages yet, I figured I might as well take on the insurmountable task. Just gotta get caught up with where I am in the books right now, then I can make a page for each as I go along. (Glad you liked it, as well. I didn't intend for it to end up so long, but writing it all out was a lot more enjoyable than I thought it'd be!)

>>87100355
Physically, no. Mentally... Yes? Sort of? It's up to the viewer, really. But since all that time was spent doing the exact same thing over and over and over, the years are kinda null and void because nothing new was really learned over the course of them. Aside from what was figured out within the actual episode, of course.

I love pics of McGann/Fisher so much, really helps conceptualise their audios. They were so, so amazing.
Nice to see the Brig there too. I know they got him in those first sessions they got McGann for, cause they weren't sure McGann would come back again, they wanted to give the Brig a story with 8 while they had the chance, and they already had that old Minuet in Hell script from the Audio Visuals.
LITTLE DID THEY KNOW...McGann would never leave! :D

To be fair, while I genuinely love Moffat's Wi-Fi Heaven Sent explanation, I do have to laugh at how he kinda forks in Wi-Fi metaphors to other things that don't always work as well. The Bells of Saint John's "I DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM!" thing is pretty funny.

Yeah, I couldn't really find the right word, since it's all after each other. I sort of meant that it CREATES different timelines FOR the Doctor, but all takes place within the same timeline in general.

I don't even understand the machine in that episode, was it just a cloning device or did it transplant his mental consciousness from the first version onto each subsequent version? I can't help but think that the "real" doctor died first and that each doctor after that is a clone. So the original doctor is technically dead.

There's multiple ways to explain what actually happened in Heaven Sent. Ultimately, as with everything, it's up to you to decide. I don't personally have strong feelings on it either way, I like reading everyone's theories on just who, exactly, the Doctor is by the time he exits that confession dial.

>>87100680
>I love pics of McGann/Fisher so much, really helps conceptualise their audios.
Yeah, they seem to have so much chemistry in general, you can really properly imagine the chemistry that Eight and Charley have, when you see them together.

>they weren't sure McGann would come back again
Imagine what a genuinely dark timeline we'd be living in if he hadn't. A world without Eight's audios is a world scarcely worth living in.

>>87100947
I agree with Moff that it's ultimately just up to interpretation, but personally...I really, really like and prefer the idea that it really is all clones, and that the Doctor who makes it to Hell Bent is just the last clone in a long, long line of them.

Heaven Sent is like a triumph of determinism - "You won't see this coming!" the Doctor repeats billions and billions of times. He's a finely-tuned machine. He repeats (virtually) the same actions every time, exhibits the same love, honour, tenacity every time. We're all machines in the end, whether organic or mechanical. To me personally, that's a really beautiful thing. I like the idea that his actual consciousness swims around in the air since the Confession Dial is like a repository for his soul almost, but I also really like the idea that he literally does completely die and just clones himself billions of times.

Also why I really liked the "breaking the wall" music playing in The Doctor Falls when the Doctor fights the Cybermen - he's as much a machine as them, in a way, except he's full of emotions, love, humanity. But every time, every time he fights the Cybermen, he'll do all he can for love, peace, etc.

>>87101075
It was simply a teleporter that worked how one would actually work in real life, killing you and creating an exact replica of you somewhere else, the Doctor just made another replica of himself every time he died.

And anon, the original Doctor died In 1966

>the "real" doctor died first and that each doctor after that is a clone.
The later ones are no more or less a clone than the first one. It was the same process of materialisation happening from the beginning, the only difference is that the first one happened at the same time he got zapped out of London.

Moffat's Who is known to treat consciousness a bit magically and independently of the physical body (see Rory somehow having his Auton memories and Amy knowing what happened in TWORS) so teleporter extentialism's not worth worrying about IMO.

>>87101214
I don't even really know I just wanted to make the pun desu

>>87101277
But it wouldn't be the ORIGINAL version of the 12th Doctor, it would be a replica.

>>87101356
Passing over what Moffat does, it's shit like this that makes me wonder why everyone loves that two parter so goddamn much when there are glaring holes in it.

>>87101604
>it's shit like this that makes me wonder why everyone loves that two parter so goddamn much when there are glaring holes in it.

Suspension of disbelief.

>>87101604
because they're not holes. >>87101089
>>87100050 >>87101356

all good analysis of their story purpose

>>87101604
I never said it's the original version of the 12th Doctor, the true original version never went to the confession dial since he was teleported there, he actually died on the trap street

How many times have people used teleporters in NuWho and no-one's batted an eyelid or insisted that they'd 'really died'? But one case of a character teleporting to billions of different points simultaneously, and suddenly everybody loses their minds.

>>87101809
Could be because every other teleport didn't involve the character dying and being brought back to life with no memories from before their death.

What was the comfiest 12/Bill/Nardole moment?

>>87101809
desu i never considered this, but the amount of teleporter "deaths" is insignificant to the amount of times he "died" in the confession dial.

How long did each loop last anyway?
A few hours? A day? A week? He definatly died far more than 4.5 billion times if he was there for 4.5 billion years

>>87102432
I've wondered this myself I would probably say 6 months to a year

>>87102432
>the amount of teleporter "deaths" is insignificant to the amount of times he "died" in the confession dial.
It's virtually the exact same number

>>87102541
What? I'll admit i haven't watched much of classic who, but surely the amount of times the doctor has used a teleporter over the entire course of the show doesnt come close to that figure.

Even if you count each use of the Tardis (I don't, as i thought it just moves through the time vortex and just appears to be dematerialising to the observer.)

Decent, Trust Me got me really excited for Jodie.

was bill meant to be the first cyberman created on the colony ship?

>>87104960
She's the first one created on that ship.

Not the first one ever though.

So i've been trying to write one last shit trip before the deadline. One where the Doctor visits a virtual version of /who/

but t b h it's neither fun nor written well,
the only vaguely interesting ideas i had was that [/spoiler]/tv/ was a long hallway with many doors to each thread/room and the hallway walls had CTR's and LCD's embedded in them. Also, anons were silhouettes and trips were just out of focus. Everyone started becoming trips and got locked in the thread. [/spoiler]

Can't really think of a way to satisfyingly end it, just wanted to write a fun story that captures the essences of /who/.

>>87105095
do cybermen have like codes or names or assigned things like "Cybermen B14" or anything like that?

>>87105152
The Mondasian Cybermen in The Tenth Planet at the very least had actual names.

>>87105152
Did cyber-bill say "I am Bill Potts" or "I was Bill Potts"?

>>87105275
>>87105095

wait where was the colony ship heading
was it heading TO mondas or FROM mondas?
why were there people on board?
wahts the point of the ship basically

>>87105337
>wait where was the colony ship heading
can't remember
>was it heading TO mondas or FROM mondas?
Both. It left Mondas and was going to find a new planet but got stuck near a black hole before making the return trip
>why were there people on board?
Same reason lots of spaceships have people on board? Crew mainly. All the other people were descendants of the crew that went to the fast bottom end of the ship
>what's the point of the ship basically
explration

>>87105337
I think Missy said it was heading from Mondas. A few weeks ago someone posted on here saying that the Mondasian scientists probably came up with the idea for cybermen, and gave it to all their colony ships as some sort of last resort if things weren't going well

>>87105337
From what I recal it was from mondas and it was going to rescue people? They were only a skeleton crew and when they went to the bottom they couldn't get get back up because of the black hole so they ended up living in the ship and using up the her resources. I think they're say this within the first ten minutes, anon

>>87105335
She said "I Am Bill Potts"

can anyone isolate the theme music from this
its better than the actual one imo

>>87100864

Yeh, nott to repeat the others too much, but what happened was (according to the Doctor's Dialogue) was that the Doctor let the thing kill him, but before he died he realized that all the resetting rooms meant that his own energy pattern was still in the transporter, so he used his own body as fuel to make a new copy... basically cloning himself until he could break through the wall.

Not that I'm aware of, but I don't think Paul starring in Holby City would diminish his chances of being cast in anything. He's still a great actor, no matter what show he's in.

Immigrant asked me to write something featuring 8 and a companion of my choice. Wasn't sure what to choose, but he suggested Martha, so I'm trying something with that. Kinda convenient, because Samantha Jones is one of the aliases she's been known to use in the past, and it was chosen specifically to reference the EDA companion, so I'm trying to build a bit of a story around that.

Just realized Lie of the Land would've retroactively made the entire trilogy worthwhile/ would have at least been a lot better, if the Doctor really did join the monks and it was done so so simply by saying the brainwashing was affecting him as well. Then Bill could've done whatever the fuck to get the plot back on track, honestly she should've shot him and snapped him out of it/convinced him to believe her if she was willing to kill her and trust her despite still being affected. Anything but that ridiculous fakeout scene that made the Doctor complicit in 6 months of global facism and sending people to labor camps and executions.

I can't believe I'm still so salty about the monks. How would you have fixed them, /who/?

I'm pretty sure most of us here completely agree with that.

Does anyone else here have sort of pictures they associate with the trips, like whenever you read their posts, you picture that as them? I think for me it's influenced by pictures they've attached to their posts.

Whenever I read Neo's posts, I imagine him as Missy, specifically from the WE&T dab scene.

Edgey's drawing of me is pretty close, I'd like to think I have a stronger jaw however. Hello.

I picture cats as a skelly-tier white male with short brown hair

>>87115195
I picture you as Thick of It Capaldi for some reason.

>>87115178
Is he holding that cat hostage by holding it legs? pfft

I picture you all as my friends

>>87115582
Oh man I wish. If put into a /who/ framed reference I'd be like a That's Gareth when I shave my head. Hair is actually really long at the moment and I'm graying in the right places maybe I could be a fat blue eyed delgado.

You know, in trying to join this hug chain, I realised I didn't have a hug gif with eight, so I had to go and make one. So you're the first ever recipient of this gif, anon.

I didn't realize I was sent back to 2012

>>87117248
I used to play it a lot but I moved over to Overwatch a long time ago. Other than that, I've been playing Breath of the Wild which is amazing, and also a great game to play while listening to Big Finish

Used to play TF2 years ago, but Overwatch is my go-to for that sort of gameplay now. Usually a WoW player, but I've stopped for now. Other than that, it's just RPGs and comfy shit like Stardew Valley/Zoo Tycoon 2 for me.

>>87117911
It'd all depend on how many people we could plausibly get for it. Not so hard to set something like that up, it'd just require sharing btags and for someone to make a custom game.

>>87118052
Please, anon, respect yourself and upgrade to the superior game. jk tf2's still got a bit of an upper-hand with the custom maps

>>87118107
I mean we only need six, our only problem would be getting too many people

TF2 at it's height was better than Overwatch, but that was a long, long time ago

Sadly Zelda is the only game I have for my Switch, I just got it. I'll still add you though

Well, /who/ shot down my Capaldi marathon idea. Needless to say I'm more depressed and lonely than ever.

>>87118295
I wasn't there when you posted it, sorry anon. I personally would love a Capaldi marathon though

If they'd actually be interested in it... then, yeah, I suppose so.

>>87118183
I was gonna get a switch but with uni starting soon and so much who content for me to still get through, I'd end up not really using it that much. Maybe when there's more games out for it. Splatoon's always looked really fun but I've never had a chance to play it

>>87118295
>>87118400
Agreed, it'd be fun. I think most people would be up for it.

Kek, Splatoon 2 is literally the only game I have

Shit's expensive

Here Anon, I'm usually either Kilgrave or KRILLgrave

>>87118295
I did not see it in time, but I was under the impression it was gonna be done? Either way I was going to marathon Series 9, but a Capaldi era marathon sounds better.
tl;dr: I say we do it

>>87118107
Sorry Overwatch is just too flashy for me. I feel like there is too much stuff going on, on the screen.

>>87118154
TF2 Comp Teams only need 6 persons too :^)

>>87117248
Used to play Smite a lot, even joined the 4chan clan, kinda stopped once college got harder to do.

Also the 4chan clan's Discord went full /pol/ after the US election and it turned me off party-queuing with them for good.

>>87118488
I'll add you and if I get Splatoon 2 I'll hit you up

>tfw Edge will be your only friend on the Switch

>>87118630
Splet is good, pls get

>>87118651
Yeah I was thinking about getting something like Mario Kart where I can play it with a friend so I can convince them to buy one lol

If I'm ever not active on /who/, I'm asleep.

That's ultimately up to you, I'm afraid. I'm terrible at keeping track of time-zones in general, so I'd probably be of little help in deciding.

>>87119015
I have short fluffy blue hair

>>87119020

I don't really visualise much from text usually, I'm afraid, but for some strange reason I see your face quite well, how strange.
Also I gotta say again how amused I am at you picturing me as a dabbing Missy. How did that come about??

Jodie says ''i'm playing an alien, so genders not part of that''

Did she just assume aliens can't have genders?

Also i'm pro female doctor. But it makes me sad they are trying to erase that the Doctor was a male. Like he was a fucking male, he was referenced as such by dozens of characters.

>>87119704
I would like to know your opinion on Love Live.

Do you like µ's or Aqours more, and who's your favorite from each?

>>87119704
she assumed that there are some types of aliens that don't have genders, and she'd be right

>he was a fucking male, he was referenced as such by dozens of characters.
Because of the body he was in at the time, but if you want to get into it, there's no actual guarantee the Doctor has ever viewed himself in such clear-cut terms. I mean, if you consider the novels to be at all relevant, there's even an exchange wherein Eight outright states he doesn't consider himself a man, or a woman. (And if there's any doubt about what he was referring to - species or gender - the wording "not even" confirms the latter.) Of course, that attitude may be regeneration-specific, but who knows?

Basically, as Twelve said himself in WEAT, for Time Lords, gender isn't as big a deal as it is to humans, and as much as the audience has spent all this time thinking of the Doctor as a man, the character himself probably never identified with that half as much we think he did. Sure, he uses the pronouns, refers to himself as a "man" where it's at all relevant, but that doesn't mean he had some deep internal connection to that particular gender.

Thirteen comes along and, if Chibnall handles it appropriately, she shouldn't be at all perturbed by her new regeneration - I'm hoping she'll just shrug it off like "oh, interesting, i've never had a body like this before," and that'll be that.

Anyways, Jodie presumably only meant that we're dealing with an alien race with different attitudes to gender entirely, so it shouldn't be a huge deal to us if the Doctor's now a woman, because it probably won't be one to her.

Hm, just remembered there's a few more references to the Eighth Doctor's attitude on all this stuff throughout the EDAs. The one pictured above is - obviously - from Beltempest, but out of sheer interest, I dug up two more explicit references to it from other books.

I mean, take it all as you will. Some people don't even consider the novels to be at all relevant, but the concept of the Doctor being indifferent to gender isn't a new one.

New Thread when?
