Jenna leaving - next compnion ?

Alien could work if he was still within 12 hours of his regeneration

I'm picturing him getting up after everyone else leaves the dining room, we see his chest glow and seal up, he shrugs and walks back to the TARDIS.

Obviously he'd have to substitute a fake body for them to bury in space!

Some sort of meta-crisis clone that didn't live long?

 

[Starkers]

yeah, well he wouldn't know what a Teselecta was at this point after all...

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, on the other hand, works perfectly fine as a War Doctor story.

I am curious now. How so?

There's nothing about Ox that suggests he couldn't be the War Doctor? Okay, maybe that he's a bit addled. That said, if you squint, you could believe that Ox/the War Doctor is involved in this adventure to make sure the Soviets don't get their hands on the Crystal Skull and ally themselves with the aliens.

Oddly that works.

Fuck, this is now an awesome way to connect the Indiana Jones universe with Doctor Who.

However... if we take the Indy TV show into account, then you could definitely spot several instances that the two overlap, sadly.

 

[Gingerbread Demon]

Oh hell even Dr Paradox in Ben 10 made me think of Doctor Who

 

[Timelord79 (he/him)]

What about Snowpiercer? I have not seen that one yet.

The class struggles of The Sunmakers, or The Happiness Patrol maybe.

Whether by intent or accident, Moffat made it so that pretty much any Jenna Coleman role is really a secret Doctor Who role.

I'm really super fine with this!

You are under a misapprehension that I said "all" John Hurt movies are War Doctor stories, when I very specifically said "a number of." Alien obviously doesn't work. Nor does The Elephant Man or V For Vendetta (though, I have sometimes imagined the Doctor in that world).

I think Chancellor Sutler is just one of those random doppelgangers that inhabit the Doctor Who universe. If the War Doctor landed in that version of England, he probably would have been recruited to try to replace Sutler, like how the 2nd Doctor impersonated Salamander in "The Enemy of the World."

And if you're going to go this route, explain Caligula in I, Claudius (incest with his sisters, killing one of them after getting her pregnant, and making his horse a senator - among many other things).

After his regeneration, he went back to Gallifrey and tried to play nice with the other Time Lords for a while and they rubbed off on him in a bad way. I think it just goes to show how horrendously corrupt & decadent Gallifrey became during the Time War.
