So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad idea

Sure it could be played for laughs, but they're handling this "straight"; and it seems like a wonderful little fetishgimmick to keep the punters in wonder.

OOOrr... DEE-OH.

The Seventh Doctor feels responsible for splitting the timeline, where after there's a 1960's mirror universe Nazi Scientist who speaks fondly of Hitler now and then saddled as his side kick rather than allowing her to run free in the 1950s regular universe trying to find some way to resettle the dis-railed timeline to put Adolf back in charge of the planet...

An antihero is one thing, but this is a Nazi.

Surely a Dalek or even the Master would make a more palatable sociable companion?

Love or loath?

What?
What story was that?
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

Like I said: OOOrr... DEE-OH.

For over a decade, a company called "Big Finish" produces monthly Doctor who full cast audio plays (About 2 hours long each.) staring doctors 5 through 8, still played by the original actors, and a host of companions from the TV and freshly created for in-between times where the time travellers chronology is not precisely recorded.

This is happening right now.

Colditz (years old), A thousand tiny Wings(last month.), and Survival of the Fittist(this month).

Hello. :)

Nazi: "When are we now Doctor?"
Doctor: "Earth, 1938. Somewhere near Austria"
Nazi: "Here we go again..."

*cue title music*





Nah, can't see it working...
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

You don't get to "see" it working my dear friend. :)

it's an auditory delight.

Elizabeth Cline.

You're just supposed to think in the beginning that she is a creature of her own environment, like some one raised by hillbillies is going to have the manners of a baboon she's going to have charming little fascist doctrine that just ebbs out when you least expect it because she seems like an average normal every day cultured educated gentlewoman (think Mirror Liz Shaw).

I've only just finished "Survival of the Fittest" + "Clines Story" but I have to say she makes Katrina Kingdom's first hours in the TARDIS look like Dorothy in Oz. Well, apart form the second degree wikicide in the 2nd act.

Your workmate is bobbing off to big finish soon for a reunion episode, isn't he?

I read somethign about them putting the band back together.

[Duggan] Can anyone join in this conversation, or do you need a certificate? [/Duggan]
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

No. Just as perplexed by it now as I always was..
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

Gods!

I understand that few of us here actually listen tot he audio stories and there's always people wading in who have never heard of the audio adventures whenever I broach the subject, but gods as my witnesses this is a canon attestiment of the current continuity and not hypothetical conjecture.

THERE'S A GOOSESTEPPER IN THE TARDIS!

The 8th Doctor (sorta) is sucking face with her!

I heart Guy Gardener. :lol: :techman:
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

I thought Elizabeth Klein's time in the TARDIS was very interesting, and A Thousand Tiny Wings, Survival of the Fittest & Klein's Story, and The Architects of History were all very good stories. The "big reveal" in Klein's Story was well done. So to answer your question : Love.

I know the new Klein trilogy inside out, and still have no idea what you're getting at.

Though I would like to learn more about this Katrina Kingdom person, and the act of wikicide - presumably something to do with killing a user-generated encyclopedia?
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

Hmm?

Wiccacide?

It was Dorothy who killed the witch. Everyone goes on about how sweet and innocent Judy Garland's Dorothy was, but she killed that woman and then stole her shoes.

There's a word salad in my head which won't stop tossing.

Sara Kingdom

She was a cop following ordered to neutralize the Doctor and Steven who didn't know her boss worked for the Daleks.
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

Is it you mom? I have a nagging suspicion we've seen all that before.

Nonsense?

The Doctor is not a physician, he's just been around, turning towards truth like a sunflower turns towards the sun. A truthflower?

And yet we try again and again.

Pomegranate.
 
Re: So, frankly I thought having a Nazi Companion would've been a bad

But what does a sunflower do in a Binary Star System?

The third part is out!

I'm behind!

Klein with a "K" is it?

My bad.
