The Doctor - Current Update?

[Technobuilder]

Considering I haven't read the Voyager books, I'm just wondering what's been going on with The Doctor since he returned from the Delta Quadrant.

I'm okay with Spoilers (But including appearances would also be appreciated)

I know Seven of Nine works for Bacco's Administration now, (Or at least she did before the events of Destiny may or may not have made her advisory roll irrelevant.) So I was just wondering where the Doctor had gotten off to. I always thought he might actually get up the nerve to ask her out one day.

He isn't still on Voyager by the time of Destiny is he?

Reason I ask, is I'm looking at picking up Full Circle and I just wanted to know if he might show up there, and if not, where next he would.

In the VOY-R novels, the Doctor lived with Reginald Barclay for a while but their varied eccentricities made that cohabitation unsustainable. Afterwards, he and Seven joined a think tank whose purpose, and their function within it, have never been elaborated on. They do, however, have food fights.

Some time after Nemesis, he would testify before the Federation Judiciary Commitee that B-4 was a sentient (sapient) individual and entitled to full rights.

Or, put another way: "We know nothing. You are now up to speed."

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

Let's see if I remember it all correctly...

Homecoming through Spirit Walk: He works on a Federation Think Tank with Seven of Nine and is apart of a holographic rights movement.

Full Circle picks up here: so he's likely to be in it.

I believe it is Articles of the Federation we then see him in next where he appears as to testify in favor of B-4's sentient rights.

Full Circle is still going on here.

Destiny: Well you read that, so you know.

Full Circle is still going on here too, and then ends. I imagine he'll be represented in the book heavily (as the rest of the crew will be too).


... and it seems Trent beat me to it..

He'll be regenerating from David Tennant into Matt Smith this Christmas.



What?

Anyhow, we've seen comparatively little of the former EMH -- Trent and LS covered it -- but he'll feature prominently in Full Circle.

he appears again at Easter, with Michelle Ryan, in Planet of the Dead...

You know, it was the first thing I thought when I saw the thread's title. Funny thing is, when I was a young geek and I lived on cheerios and Star Trek, my first thought would have been to Robert Picardo's doctor. But now that I'm an old geek and I my diet has become more varied (maybe that's why Enterprise's episodes always gave me wind...), when I think of the Doctor, I think of The Doctor (or, as Rose Tyler would put it, The Doctah....)

Christmas? From what I've read the Doctor will be regenerating at the beginning of season five next Easter.

Although on second thoughts, it will probably occur at the end of the Christmas Special similar to the end of The Parting of the Ways with Eccles-cakes and David Tennant

As for the EMH, I thought he lead the Atlantis Expedition for a while

If you thought of Picardo as the Doctor as a young geek, then you are still many years from being an old geek...

Thanks for the update (Doctor Who derailment notwithstanding), I guess there's one major trek character with even less book time than LaForge.

Did "The Doctor" (EMH) ever pic a name? What do they call him?

I think it would be funny if he went with "John Smith"!

They call him... The Doctor. (Cool music sting here)

One of these days, the TARDIS is gonna land in the Voyager sickbay and a certain Time Lord is gonna have words with the EMH over stealing his name.

This is something I've been wondering for some time, and this thread has really made me curious, but a question for KRAD...since you are a connoisseur and writer of both...in an ultimate fan-boy crossover, if you could pick any of the various incarnations/regenerations, which Doctor (Who) would you team up with which Trek series and crew???

 

[HappyDayRiot]

A ship like Voyager that already runs into trouble once a week really wouldn't want the Doctor turning up - the guy's a trouble magnet.

Makes me think of the first scene of The Next Doctor actually.
"Bridge to the Doctor"
"Who, me?" *gurny smile*

 

[captcalhoun]

i invite one and all to peruse my fan-fic Doctor, Doctor featuring the Tenth Doctor and Rose meeting the EMH and Kes.

That was the first ever fan fic I've read and it was mighty good.

Well, if I was picking a Doctor to write on general principle, it'd be either Four or Nine, simply because they're my two favorites.

As for which flavor of Trek, that's tougher. See, the Doctor has the ability (as, I believe, Stephen Moffat his own self once put it, though I may be misattributing) to go from being in the brig/dungeon to being on the bridge/in total control of the situation in 20 minutes or less. The nature of a great deal of Who fiction (and a Trek crossover would fall into this category) is that he tends to take over from whoever's nominally in charge. That's harder to do in Trek fiction, because the captain really is in charge, and it's tough to supersede Kirk or Picard or Sisko or Janeway or Calhoun or Gold or whoever.

So I guess I'd do it with Enterprise.

I don't know, I think it'd be fun to see Picard having to deal with the antics of the Fourth or Tenth Doctor, and being just as frustrated as he gets with Q. Conversely, if you preferred having the Trek captain retain his or her authority, you could go for one of the more "vulnerable" Doctors, Two or Five.
