I’m upping it. The Doctor, River and Missy on some sort of adventure. There’s no way Missy is completely dead, she’s died more times than Kenny on South Park.

- Thread starter StCoop
- Start date
Sadly, I think we can safely say her most recent incarnation is definitely since Michelle Gomez has said she's not returning.
But yeah, she'll never be completely dead.

She might change her mind. Ecclestone might change his mind.
Hope springs eternal.
I would really love to see Missy and this Doctor spar. Oh, the joy.
I got the reference last week when the Doctor looked at the vortex manipulator
"Cheap and Nasty time travel" From the Magicians Apprentice
Steven Moffat wants the BBC to give Doctor Who a bigger budget.

I mean he tried to make it more cinematic with
- those series 7 opening credits
-Filming in another country( U.S, Croatia)
With Graham calling the Doctor "Doc", I kept remembering one of them not liking the term. I would've have sworn it was Colin, but I found and uploaded this bit from The Five Doctors with Hurndall. 6 was as haughty as 1, so maybe he said it somewhere too?
re-ETA: I found & uploaded the Colin clip.

Yeah, its a trait that I was bewildered to see abandoned. Ah, well.
Which itself was a re-use of Smith's Doctor calling it that in "The Big Bang".
Didn't Tennant use the term with Jack?
No, he compared it to having a space hopper whilst the TARDIS was a Porsche.
Which only really makes sense if you've seen the Top Gear ep where James chose a track-modded Porsche and found it completely useless for regular driving, to the point his spine nearly collapsed and he ended up naked.
Was that not an Aston Martin he was in?
DAMN YOU.
Yes, Hammond was in the Porsche. Which opens us up for a "smaller on the inside" joke, but I don't have the will anymore...
steven called Hartnell's Doctor "Doc" a few times in "The Time Meddler" to which he took offense
I've only ever seen one or two Hartnell stories. They must've continued that theme in The Five Doctors with Tegan.
OK, since Metro has copied the Mirror's story, and doubtless the other tabloids will follow suit... Yes there is a Dr Who Xmas Special. It's been filming, it's got internal and other documentation describing it as such (for example on the director's and editor's portfolios) and it will air in the Xmas holidays.
All the Mirror has picked up on is that Chibnall hasn't confirmed that it will air on Xmas Day - because the production team don't make the schedules, after all - that it may air on New Year's Day instead, and implied it may not be a Xmas-themed story.
The Mirror took that and went with a headline of "Xmas episode scrapped because Steven Moffat has run out of ideas for this year."
So, um, bullshit, there is a Special for the Xmas holidays.

Is that all it is? Sweet shit, the BBC has never confirmed a Christmas special will air on Christmas day until two weeks prior. This is the way it's been for the past thirteen years. Hell, with rare exceptions, the BBC never confirm their schedules until two weeks prior to airdate, and it has been this way since time immemoriam. Now suddenly it involves Chibnall and everyone gets worked up into believing there's no Christmas special?
Words fail me.

A random observation while watching this week's episode: Jodie Whitaker is really the Fifth Doctor of NuWho. Overtly nice and goes out of her way to assure people of the goodness of others.
She *is* the 5th Nu Who Doctor too...
Lol, great coincidencence, or a deliberate move on Chibs part?
