Which plot points would you like to have revisited, expanded, or resolved?

There's tons of them I would love to see some kind of resolution to my top most wanted one is the mummy episode with the 12th Doctor. I would really love to know who was the brains behind that and set all that up and who GUS really was. He or she must have had organized all that well in advance to trick the Doctor, seeing as they tried to do it twice, once before with the 11th Doctor.
 
I would have preferred an Omega follow-up that didn't involve him having turned into a cave troll. I would have preferred Omega actually getting into our universe and escaping. NuWho always seems to want to end the threat-of-the-season once and for all, even if it ends up not being that cut & dry later.

Just knowing Omega was out there would have been an interesting problem to occupy the Doctor's mind, and ours. Might have made a decent season long arc too.
 
Pretty much everything after the Twelfth regenerated. The Timeless Child, The Fugitive Doctor, The Cyber Lords, the bloody Flux, the whole Susan thing, Fantasy World Pantheon wars... It's like they realised that they don't have to resolve anything any more, follow Barnum's philosophy of a sucker born every minute,

For me it's the Sutekh thing that takes the proverbial cake. Are we supposed to believe he was hanging out there for the last 50 years on top of the TARDIS, and yet she didn't even warn the Doctor. I mean the TARDIS had a tantrum when Jack held onto it in flight so why is this suddenly different?
 
i guess revist expand and resolve all of the official doctor who audios verisons onto the tv verison

and also revist expand and resolve the inbetween of the doctor who episodes like example at the end of most episodes after the leave its like what year and or planet do they end up in next because in some of the episodes they do not show where they are next and its also the same at the beginning of some episodes like what planet and or year did they come from
 
Can you elaborate on these? Have never heard of this

Sure!

In the Seventh Doctor story “Battlefield”, a knight from another dimension that closely parallels Arthurian legend recognizes the Doctor as Merlin — even though the Doctor wears a different face now. This seemed to imply that at some future point the Doctor would be Merlin (though I guess the Timeless Child revelation means it might also plausibly have been some forgotten previous incarnation).

Before that, in the Sixth Doctor season-long “Trial of a Time Lord” sequence, the Doctor is prosecuted by a figure called the Valeyard, who’s apparently an “amalgamation of the darker sides” of the Doctor himself, from between his 12th and final regenerations. Some have simplified that to his being the Doctor’s future evil incarnation, which is pretty foreboding. The usual assumption was that the Valeyard was from between the 12th and 13th Doctors (or occasionally that he *was* the 13th Doctor). Obviously this didn’t happen in the revived series, and the thread seems to have been dropped, but theoretically they could do it at any time in the future.

Big thank you.

I didn't know about the Merlin thing.

I do remember Trial of a Timelord however
 
It's unlikely that Merlin was an unremembered past version of the Doctor as they had knowledge of events that were in the Doctor's future (well, Seven's immediate present) i.e. "PS: Morgaine has just stolen the nuclear missile".
 
I have not looked at who since the timeless child, so go back and wipe that from history, and i will come back to modern Who, that simple, you want my money and viewership BBC, then you know what to do. lol

I'm sure they'll get right on that, straight after they wipe all the Troughton episodes to accommodate the lady who complained about it becoming "Coco the Clown".
 
I figured that at some time during the Twelfth Doctor's tenure, we'd find out just how he* came to assist in the events of The Day of the Doctor, wherein thirteen Tardises (Tardes?) were enlisted to make Gallifrey disappear into safety.

Never happened.


*Or someone who'd stolen his eyebrows.

We can deduce based on his short haircut and the lack of lit roundels in the console room that it was sometime before the Doctor and the TARDIS got their new looks in "The Magician's Apprentice," if anyone's hoping to slip it into a novel, comic, or audio sometime.
