Doctor Who Forum episode 1

I always wanted to do something cool like create my own Doctor Who episode. Yet, it seems to me, that it would be more fun to create one with friends. So this is hopefully something that we can all do and have fun with, and maybe turn into a tradition here on the forum. The rules are simple..

1. Upload 1 picture of the Doctor, his companions, group shots, villains, or a specific scene that ties into the previous pic uploaded by a fellow forum member.

2. provide a simple and short caption for the picture.

3. tie in your picture with the previous one to make a coherent story and move the episode along.

4. each member does their story extension and each member has to match their next addition as a progression, but keeping with the series the Doctor exists in. (example: characters and Doctor's Don't have to be from the same series, if a companion leaves, it must be shown, and the intro to another from that era or a similar format Black and white must be introduced.) If Hartnell era, then Hartnell characters and the scenes or additions must be in Black and White to match, you can insert other black and white pics, just make sure it feels Doctor who-ish (example inserting a Black and white pic of Robbie the Robot from forbidden planet as a character, or Nosferatu as a Villain, etc..Have fun with it and make it look like it fits!), episode two will introduce the 2nd Doctor (Troughton) and characters from his era in it along with anything we want to add. you can also change an image from colour to Black and white and insert it in.but make sure it fits the canon of the story.

This will be a fascinating read if we can pull it off, it will be like an episode of Doctor who, but with each of us driving it along one pic and caption at a time. I am curious to see if we can create our own compelling story with just one pic and one chance per member to move the story along. I'd love for us to create something we could come back to and reread sometime for some interactive forum fiction fun. :techman:

5. If you want to post another line, you must wait to do it after 1-2 members have posted after you. Post caption above the picture for a better reading and picture stimulus experience.

I will start the story off:


Doctor: "Well, Hmmm! It seems that we have materialized. All the atmospheric checks are in line, and optimal conditions. No radiation. I think we should take a look!"

First off I'd like to say this sounds like fun, can't wait! :) Although I don't think we should wait until 5 other members have posted to post again, so I suggest wait until 1 or 2 members have posted as otherwise we'll be here forever. After all if you can only post after 5 others have post, you'd have a maximum of one post for every six captions, and that would take forever.

Susan: Oh come on then, guys lets get on with this, I hope I don't get my boots dirty though.

Agreed on the 1-2 Member additions, and fundamental rule changes made to the initial post, should allow for greater range of characters, and introducing new scenes and such as long as they match the feel of the format and story.



Caption:

Doctor- "Chesterton, I don't want to alarm anyone, but this planet was once the temporary home of one of Gallifrey's worst enemies, the Great Vampires! It should be desolate, but I am picking up a sizeable energy signature about 20 meters from the TARDIS."

Ian-" I shall be on my guard, but we should probably try to not alarm Susan and Barbara."

Doctor- "Wise suggestion my boy, come let's go and investigate."

Glad you agree. :)

*The doctor and co walk out the TARDIS*
Doctor: Well this isn't quite what I was expecting.
Susan: Doctor, look over here!

Doctor: I think we'd better take a look, someone might be hurt. But make sure you don't wander off, danger might be afoot!

*Inside the ship as the quartet explores, Barbara and Ian are off discovering the control room, and the Doctor and Susan are making their way to the engines*


Doctor "Hmmm? I'm feeling a strange telepathic presence Susan, do you feel it too?"
Susan "Grandfather what do you suppose that is?"

*Meanwhile, 20 Metres from the crashed ship and the TARDIS, in an as yet undisclosed location, something Ancient stirs from it's long Sleep and arises!*

"Tiiiiiimmmmmmme Lord!!"

 
Trivoli the Caretaker "Finally, the Great Queen has arisen!"
The Great Queen (Mother of all Great Vampires) telepathically speaks- "Trivoli, Trivoli, you must prepare, we will have company soon, and I shall finally be free of this metal body! Alive once more Trivoli, and my children will rise again!
Trivoli "Yes My queen!"
