That's just what I was about to say when I saw that you'd posted again.
I do take notice of others.
Could any other Time Lords have survived in a similar way to Omega?

Could the matrix not still be active.
If so then many Time Lords would still be there.
This is only going to run for six episodes right...

Wait until he regenerates, then clone the Doctor and put the minds of the many Time Lords into each.

Dragging the thread back for just a second...
Julian Rhind-Tutt! A real Doctor vibe, almost reminiscent of Tom Baker's early days but with his own eccentricity. Plus, from my strictly heterosexual point of view, not altogether hideous to look upon.

Please note that the views expressed by Barnaby are his own opinions and do not reflect official Big Finish policy. They may also be daft.

Why not have the television adventures of the time lord go back in time! Let’s have the 2010 series with Paul McGann as the 8th Doctor before the time war!

I'm sure someone said but I couldn't find it and the next doctor should be...
Barnaby.

In a serious way, I think that the next Doctor should be Stephen Fry.

Lets hope they pick someone amazing. And ignore PC ness. I think Paterson Joseph would make a great Doctor, but please don't pick him BECAUSE he's black, that's all I ask. More to the point, its a pity the new series is totally off limits to BF cos I can see DT easily joining 5,6,7 and 8 in the audio booths for continuing adventures. CE will no doubt still be on the bench with TB but, you can't have everything. Especially since The Tenth's tenure has/will have far more gaps in it than Nine's.
Meh.

Don't you mean there's more gaps for the Ninth? By which I mean we don't know anything of the regeneration, the (infamous) Time War and turning up in Rose. IF if ever happened that the licence and CE agreed, then there's a great space there for a Ninth and Anne BF Other companion. But as there's more chance of Nick and Barnaby doing the fandango across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct than that ever happening then we'll just have to dream. :( Getting back on topic - I just really hope that it's someone who takes the role seriously. I've always had the mild niggling feeling that DT was so happy to be the actor that he slipped into the child playing at the Doctor, if you see what I mean. But that could just be the scripts he was given.

I would have to say that TV-wise, there's much more gaps in the 8th. The 9th is pretty cut and dry. In the first episode he was freshly regenerated, one scene had him quickly looking at his face for the first time since regenerating, and at the end of the season he regenerates. That tells me that the entire Time War was in the 8th Doctor's time. One thing I wonder, in the new series, has there been any mention of the 12 regeneration limit? I haven't caught any. Has CE or DT's Doctor's mentioned which incarnation number they are? That could leave open plot holes that could be exploited later, that there's incarnations we don't know about between 1996 and 2005, among other things.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I also wonder how they would address the issue were the Doctor to travel back in time further than the 20th century on Earth. smstnitc wrote:I would have to say that TV-wise, there's much more gaps in the 8th.

Not neccessarily - he could have just had a haircut recently and be thinking it does/ doesn't suit him! I can certainly think of more contrived continuity insertions in the Doctor's history. smstnitc wrote:One thing I wonder, in the new series, has there been any mention of the 12 regeneration limit?

In "School Reunion", when Sarah-Jane says to the Doctor "You've regenerated...", the Doctor (DT) replies "half a dozen times since we last met". That would be 4 to 5, 5 to 6, 6 to 7, 7 to 8, 8 to 9 and 9 to 10. I don't think the limit has been explicitly mentioned in the new series, although RTD has mentioned it frequently, as has Steven Moffat.

Well, the Master's precedent bypasses the number of regenerations the Doctor COULD have but not how many he CAN have, if you see what I mean. As the Last Timelord, as far as we know, he may not have the ability to get more than 12 regenerations himself.
(As an aside, personally I'll take most BF and BBC audio as canon along with most of the TV show, but Romana may still be in E Space according to the BBC. And she was always a clever girl.)
Uirdhein's Canon: All TV except A Fix with Sontarans and Dimensions in Time (Curse of Fatal etc NEVER counted and the Cushing films are right out.) All BBC Audio except Death comes to Time which was an experiment and not a very good one. All BF Audio except for Bernice(sorry Bernice)/certain sixth and seventh adaptations of novels into audio, and while a lot of fun, the stageplay audios are out too. And now that I've done that, I'll hide from folk proclaiming my ignorance of the "facts". I blame the BBC myself :)
I do seem to have wandered off topic. Apologies. As for the Eleventh? Me. Failing that, someone with respect for the character and show's history without being a gibbering fanboy about it, and somone with the strength to tell the writers/producer that due to this respect, they won't do any old crap that is pushed at them. Though it's a bit rich me complaining about something like River Song when placed along side the lunacy of Time and the Rani.
I'd still like to see what happened to the REAL Cybermen. They scared me as a kid, the new one's just seem clanky.

Yeah, but it's also been clearly established that Sarah Jane has no memory of The Five Doctors, hence her complaining of being left in Aberdeen, the last time she perceives she saw the Doctor. I think I read/ heard that the implication was after the Five Doctors that all the companion's memories of their time in The Death Zone were erased, which is supported by multiple other examples. And from comments from the current series production team, it's clear DT is the 10th Doctor.

So nobody wants to talk about Richard E. Grant then, huh?  (as in prior to Eccleston, not for the next Doctor) Or am I the only one that doesn't completely exclude him (since we are discussing audio here)?
