Unseen adventures that tease us

[Starkers]

You know, I have always wanted to have a "non"-episode of Doctor Who. Just one, where nothing dramatic happens as far as external conflict and all. I think that would be a great change for a show. And, like, The Doctor could just be waiting for something horrible to befall them at any moment, the entire episode. But, nothing ever does...

I can't imagine that'd ever happen, but I agree it would be a refreshing change, especially if it were somewhere in the past or an alien planet so that at least viewers had new sceneray to look at, and especially if the Doctor wandered around making revealing comments about his past.

Actually I think it'd make a great companion leaving epiosde...

"You know what, Doctor. I've found out more about you today than I have in the last six months...and I've found out that I don't actually like you. Oh it's easy to be suckered in by the running about and the saving of universes, but I finally figured you out today. You live for it, for death and destruction, and you're lost without it, pointless without it, and that scares me. At least the Daleks are honest, Doctor, are you? Now if you could drop me off back outside the chip shop in Fulham 1967 where you picked me up, I'd really appreciate it."

You know, that could be pretty fun. Have him wander round a shopping mall. Suddenly, a shop window dummy moves!. The Doctor sets of the fire alarm to evacuate the building, then spots the shop worker who has been adjusting the display!

Yeah exactly!

Still, I would love to see a 7th Doctor/Ace adventure with them trashing the weapons factories, and him acquiring the screwdriver we see him using in the '96 TVM. I would imagine McGann built/rebuilt the one Eccleston/Tennant use during The Time War. It seems to be far more powerful than the original models, and war has a tendency to push technological achievement.

Ace: C'mon, the bombs are set. Let's not hang about!

Doctor (examining computer screen): Now that's interesting....they've added a photonic shunt to the sonic disruptors...y'know, I've been meaning to rebuild the sonic screwdriver....

Ace: PROFESSOR! THE BOMBS!!

Damn near word-for-word for what I was thinking!

His "first" meeting with Queen Elizabeth. At the end of The Shakespeare Code, she remembers having met him and wants him dead. From his perspective, he hasn't met her yet. It's gotta be Ten that she's met, since she wouldn't have recognized another regeneration. I want to see that, what he did to get her so riled up.

I agree with that, it should really be a book if it never gets made for TV.

 

[Haggis and tatties]

^Wow! Didn't know that. Were they going to get Michael Gough to reprise?

Yeah the trial of the timelords box set has a fantastic documentary on all the stories that were lined up for season 23, and Michael Gough was all set up to reprise his role from the original.

^I wish I didn't know that now. It would have been damn cool. If there's one thing I'd change about Doctor Who's history, it would be the Colin Baker era. Let him have the outfit he wanted, let him play it the way he started in Twin Dilema and develop him over a three-year period. If he's still rocking at that point, we could put McCoy off until the 90's...

 

[The Badger]

^At which point, he'd be the dapper little connoisseur we get in the TVM. No question mark pullover, no mangled proverbs and definitely no Cartmel Masterplan.

Not so much unmentioned but.. the 7th doctors 'the other' storyline as alluded to in Silver Nemesis and other episodes.

also there is the theorized 6b stuff.

Both good ones!

The one where Ten is trying to save Charlemagne from an insane computer.

The Lonely Computer

Enjoy!

But, wasn't that the inference? He had been there. "Once."

The inference wasn't that he got his screwdriver there, it was that he's the one who blew it up.

Like I said previously, fair enough. Still think it could work...

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I'm curious as to the Doctor's encounter with the 'Terrible Zodin'.

I've always wanted to see that story.


While this could be an unseen adventure, this could also be a future potential story to be seen now: A future incarnation of The Doctor as Merlin as mentioned in Battlefield.

And of course there were at least two pre-Unearthly Child stories that Susan hinted at in episode 2 when she noticed the Tardis was still a police box.

 

[Stevil2001]

Also, Susan and the Doctor's first trip to the French Revolution. Any excuse for a Hartnell historical!

The origin story with the doctor stealing the tardis, etc..

Why would you link him to a painfully mediocre TV show that has very little to do with what he said?
