@indigomoose : I like the theory, but what I’m not sure I can understand is how Missy comes back in Series 9… Am I missing something here? Because I’m pretty sure she got… Exploded. Unless, as I believe she’s got some kind of transmat, along with her mind backed up, rather like River, in the Nethersphere. So where does the thirteenth come in…[Read more]

ah @indigomoose – defending shipping with head can(n)ons is another thing entirely methinks…

;¬)

btw would love to say hi and welcome to @indigomoose for introducing some rather nice bonkers.

fantastic!

I like the “ship’s log” idea for the Tardis.

I also like the idea of a head cannon, though sadly feel its only likely after Dalekisation……

@IndigoMoose    I too like the idea of an explanation that includes the Romana and Six regenerations. It would have to be a cleverly done, and we know Moffat is up for that! And like @Bluesqueakpip, I can’t believe that we are completely done with the Danny/Orson thread. For one thing, the existence of Orson is a big loose end; for another, as lo…[Read more]

@IndigoMoose

I feel that whatever explanation Moffat puts forth should bother to incorporate these instances as well.

I suspect there is some explanation forthcoming – otherwise why would Moffat have Samuel Anderson play both Danny Pink and Colonel Orson Pink?

@indigomoose — I do like the idea of a ‘senile’ TARDIS. Like it a lot. I seem to remember an old Marvel comic strip flirting with the idea of the ‘untrustworthy’ TARDIS — the Stockbridge Horror, I think.

@IndigoMoose    This is cool. We’ve rambled a lot in the past about DW as mythology, stories, fables, and related things. If the Tardis is the one telling us the stories, it could explain a lot about the Doctor as we are shown him: sometimes a hero, sometimes a buffoon, sometimes mad man in a box, depending on how the Tardis is feeling about hi…[Read more]

@IndigoMoose     Welcome to the Forum. Love both your username and your bonkers theory. I also thank you for my laugh of the day at the phrase “head cannon”, which, spelt that way, brought an inevitable picture to my mind.  🙂

@indigomoose Someone recently theorized (apologies cant recall who) that the Tardis
may also be psychically connected with all the Doctors which could be
how they all knew to arrive at the same place and time to save Galifrey.
If this is so then it would be very interesting to see the…[Read more]

@indigomoose

Actually, that it a rather cool theory–the idea (as I understand you) that the stories we see are being told (and interpreted/edited?) by the TARDIS.

It reminds me a bit of mythic sagas or of the type of storytelling in first nation cultures. I am still not sure I can quite get my head around it (possibly revealing my positivist…[Read more]

@indigomoose @JimTheFish @blenkinsopthebrave I like the Romana
concept and have even entertained this idea for a moment before we knew who Missy was
but I still cant reconcile this idea because Missy likes to kill people for fun
and entertainment purposes. That’s not how I see Romana. But as we all know
the personalities do…[Read more]

I must admit that I quite like the Romana theory and she’s definitely one of the companions who could fit into the show as it is now — I can actually see Lalla Ward as she is now and Peter Capaldi being quite a good fit.

And @indigomoose, it’s definitely a bonkers enough theory to fit in quite nicely here. Keep ’em coming.

@indigomoose

While I think we probably have to accept that Missy actually is the Master, I quite like your bonkers theory as a bonker theory! I remember at the beginning of the second season of Sherlock that many people did not want to believe that Mycroft wasn’t actually Moriarty, as the clues dropped in Season 1 seemed to point that way. And th…[Read more]

@indigomoose and @JimTheFish

I’d also like to see John Simm’s Master again – in fact, I’d like a three-way between Sir Derek Jacobi, Michelle Gomez and Mr Simm.

Hmmm… not sure that came out the way I wanted. Or, given both the Simm Master and Missy’s definite S&M tendencies, maybe it did. 😉

Regarding indigomoose’s bonkers theory that Missy…[Read more]

@indigomoose — and presumably heads off the ‘threat’ of the Doctor regenerating as a woman in the future. Am I right?
