What Would You Like For The 50th Anniversary
What Would You Like To See For The 50th Anniversary
With the days and months ticking away to the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who what would you like to see happen to celebrate this momentous occasion.
A multi Doctor Story? Past Doctors and Companions playing other parts? anything as long as it involves Paul McGann or Doctor Who street parties perhaps?

May 8th, 2012 - 7:34pmi just want to see a return of gallifey
Jason doctorwhoone
May 8th, 2012 - 9:17pmBeen done . . . . . briefly . . . .
End of Time, part 2.
Anonymous
May 9th, 2012 - 12:59pmI think gallifrey should return. like stevan moffet said in interviews( victoriy of the daleks) that the time war was over and that the daleks should be constant in the doctors life. gallifrey should come back and so should the time lords. the doctor( aka the other) could help found the new time lord socity and his friends could be the new time lords
it could happon you knowlike with the unmande sesion 27 with the idiea that the doctor was traneing ace up to be a time lord. the 11th doctor could do the same and found a new and better gallifrey
timelordgeek16
May 8th, 2012 - 3:15pmI would like the BBC to make a film (or extended episode) of the Time War so that we watch what happened and eventually find out how the 8th Doctor regenerated during ‘The Moment’.
Some bloke
May 8th, 2012 - 4:34pmthey are never doing the time war, moffatt said
Anonymous
May 8th, 2012 - 6:36pmmiluty doctor story lot’s of monsters, the master, companions and Adric as the villian why becuase he whants revenge on the doctor for leaveing him behind Adric is behind the silance
Some bloke
May 8th, 2012 - 6:44pmadric is dead
Jason doctorwhoone
May 8th, 2012 - 9:18pmAdric is dead . . . . . thank god 😀
He was sooooooooooo irritating.
The Architect from Terserus
May 14th, 2012 - 10:50pmAdric died in Earthshock: part IV (i think in 1982)
SPOILERS IF YOU’VE NOT WATCHED IT:
to prevent the shuttle (that adric is on) crashing into the earth, by blowing it up.
The story afterwards (Time-flight) showed Matthew Waterhouse (Adric) doing a cameo as a ‘ghost’ of Adric to prevent Nyssa progressing to the next stage in the story (nearly). Earthshock was directly after Black Orchid, and before Time-flight and Arc of Infinity
Dalek Sec
May 15th, 2012 - 7:44amI would hate him more if he was behind the Silence. Also Adric can come back, only just before he died. Considering how bad the Companions were, Amy Pond in my opinion is redeemed.
Boodleoo
May 7th, 2012 - 10:25pmAll I want to know is who was standing beside rassilon in the end of time part 2 the one who wilf kept on seeing. We were given a few hints which makes me believe it’s donna but I want a good explanation and how she got there.
Jason doctorwhoone
May 8th, 2012 - 7:41amSome say, she may have been the Doctors Granddaughter Susan, others reckon she was the Doctors mothers.
Jason doctorwhoone
May 8th, 2012 - 7:41amMother not mothers.
cyber contoller
May 8th, 2012 - 9:41ami agree
Some bloke
May 8th, 2012 - 2:31pmit was his mother. Cant remember where i herad it, think it was in a moffatt doctor who magazine interview, but i think he said it was his mother. But yes it is his mother
Frankie D
May 9th, 2012 - 4:01pmIt’s obvious that the Doctor knew her. I’m not sure that it was HIS Mother. Don’t forget, Susan was his Grandaughter.
Commander Strax
May 10th, 2012 - 4:31pmrussel [i will call him the russ now 🙂 ] said that it was his mother.
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2012 - 9:10pmall the time lords from the end of time return. and set out on a trek to get revenge on the doctor
plese can you reply and telll me waht you think
Whofan#1
May 7th, 2012 - 9:38pmI think its a good idea 😀
Whofan#1
May 7th, 2012 - 7:02pmWhat if it was a Quest and The Doctor, Amy and Rory joins up with River Song to find a missing link to the whole universe and it could be a Powerful Souce within a cystal clear white stone rock but only the Doctors Enemys (Daleks, Cybermen and Sontarans etc)get in the way and stop the Doctor from getting it but why would his enemys stop him? but it isn’t the enemys who wants it, its Omega and this time he wants to take over the universe and take controll of everything! But can The Doctor stop this chaos and stop Omega?
doctor who
June 6th, 2012 - 3:17pmgood idea siminlar to mine which is the doctor and his army are summonded back in time to gallifrey by the forces of evil as today is a battle on gallifrey,the battle called trenzalore on the fields of battle,this battle will see the fall of the eleventh,a time lord group or empire ,the eleventh will fall or will it.it seems the eleventh,the time lord group have summoned him here to be forced to answer a question and no companion must speak falsely and the doctor will not fail to answer,the question.doctor who,this will see omega return as the doctor’s identity[the other]is connected to omega and he will return from his anti matter universe,this story could be set in early gallifrey or in the last days of the time war and omega will destroy the doctor and the silents could be a race who guard history and live at a mysterious gateway like void called trenzalore but the silents are really omegas time lord race created by him and the silents will have the doctor swapped with omega when the question is answered,the question being the key to the crack in time where omega is and he returns for revenge.the silents tricked the silence order in believing the question is dangerous so they can kill the doctor,erase him from time.so omega can see him just for fun of seeing the doctor dead.the doctor will return but will regenrate when he tries to escape the other side of trenzalore gateway.
doctor who
June 6th, 2012 - 3:22pmthe last bit changed they want him dead because the silents know that the doctor[the other]was at the start of time lord history with rassilon and thought he could have been involved in his death[disapperance]so try to kill him for vengence on omega even when they need him to answer the question that will release omega and the eleventh is an empire of evil time lords and silents to unleash omega
Some bloke
May 7th, 2012 - 12:30pmHey, has anyone else heard that there might be a doctor who film in the cinemas in the next couple of years? Well if you haven’t then hold on to your hats beacause there are big changes! No Matt smith, apparently starting from scratch, T. Davies nor moffatt are writing it, and they hope it will be like the next harry potter. OMG!!! This is ridiculous. My view of it is that it will end out like james bond. They’ll do a film every couple of years, and when the first actor who plays the doctor in it gets too old, they’ll replace him and that will go on and on and on. As a big doctor who fan, this is the WORST idea ever heard of, and i really hope it NEVER happens, I hate the entire idea, and from what I’ve read he majority of whovians are disgusted with the idea.
Feedback please.
booboo
May 7th, 2012 - 12:31pmif it ever happens which i doubt its years away
Some bloke
May 7th, 2012 - 12:35pmdo you like the idea booboo
booboo
May 7th, 2012 - 12:36pmI like the idea of a film but only as a continuation of the series with the currant Doctor whoever that may be
Some bloke
May 7th, 2012 - 12:37pmyes thank you
Jason doctorwhoone
May 7th, 2012 - 7:48pmI doubt we will ever see another Doctor Who movie.
All we ever get is rumour after rumour after rumour.
BUT . . . . if a Doctor Who film should ever be done, then it should be about the last great Time War –
DOCTOR WHO – THE TIME WAR CHRONICLES ;D
Some bloke
May 7th, 2012 - 8:11pmI’ve already said on this page that moffatt said that the time war is one part of the doctors past that we will never see. And apparently the bbc have given the go ahead for the ‘completely new, starting a fresh’ doctor who movie
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2012 - 9:08pmthey are making a doctor who movie but it will not be connected or attached in anyway to the doctor who sereis and episodes we watch. it will just be a one of big movie
the TARDIS
May 8th, 2012 - 5:08pmIf they did a completely new re-boot of the series for a film, people who had seen the film first and wanted to see the series would probably look at it and go “that’s nothing like what happened in the film!” and lose lots of viewers. At least make it the same as the series so that if people like it,they like Doctor Who not this weird film called “Doctor Who”.
Fox Muldor
May 29th, 2012 - 11:49pmA Doctor Who Fil should be set in a parallel universe, like Star Trek film 2009. And be independent , it should be AMERICAN and Cool. Yes Hollywood should Ruin Doctor Who with Pop a culture references and Hot Woman and a explosions, sic fI alien invasion films are Cooler than ever now. EVERYONE Watches alien Invasion a movies now. The made Star Trek popular now do it to Doctor Who.
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2012 - 11:18amall the time lords from the end of time return. and set out on a trek to get revenge on the doctor
time lord 3
May 7th, 2012 - 9:45amwhat if the doctor got sent back in time to 1963 and the only way to get back to the present is to team up with the 1st doctor and use the tardis to find all the other doctors (no tardis is powerful enough to get back to the present). on the way they have to defeat monsters from doctor whos 50 years history. once there is all 11 doctors and all 11 tardis they combine all the time travel power to send the doctor back. then the 11th doctor regenerates into the 12th doctor, being witnessed by the other doctors. then another 11th doctor comes so there is all 12 doctors and they all celebrate. This could be a feature lengh movie in 3D! Problem is that 3 of the doctors are dead and 1 or 2 of them dont want to come back.
Callum
May 6th, 2012 - 10:18pmAll the doctors meet up and send all the monsters ever defeated to skaro
Jason doctorwhoone
May 7th, 2012 - 7:45amALL the Doctors ? . . . . CAN’T be done !.
Kinda wish fan’s would stop with the idea of having all 11 Doctors on screen together would just end.
How many times do other fans like me have to remind others fans that William, Patrick and Jon are DEAD, and that Tom, Peter, Colin and Sylvester are not exactly how they looked back in the days when they was the Doctor.
Paul, Chris and David on the other hand appearing with Matt is no problem, but Chris don’t give a damn about returning, and he has made that perfectly clear, so only the 8th, 10th and 11th Doctors would be ok for a story together.
the TARDIS
May 7th, 2012 - 8:26amUnless the writer comes up with a reason for them looking different, like in Time Crash when he looked older because of the merging of the time streams. I’m writing my own idea for an anniversary story where the past doctors are all clones from the Doctor’s memory, and since the memories of the older Doctors is so poor they all look different as they get older. There can always be an explanation for them looking older.
Some bloke
May 7th, 2012 - 9:30amChris won’t do it, but i reckon sylvester’s not looking to shabby, he could pull it off, given quite a bit of make-up
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2012 - 11:16amthey could just get look alikes
or make some realisic masks andput them on the actors
melissa
May 6th, 2012 - 9:43pmthere are soo many ideas i have also, this is the 11th doctor and a timelord can only have 12 regeneration i think something should happen to him like something that happend to jack which will expand his generations, i would reallly hate for doctor who to end.
thelastgallifreyfez
May 9th, 2012 - 9:43amI’m pretty sure when River brought the Doctor back to life in ‘Let’s Kill Hitler’, all of his regenerations were restored
melissa
May 6th, 2012 - 9:26pmplease please please bring back david tennant the 10th doctor i think he has soo much to do with the 11th doctor. it says on this website amy leaves facing the weeping angels, well when the 10th doctor did the episdoe with the weeping angels he had to go in the future and get the script he was saying on the tape, and then when he went back to his time the girl went up to him and gave him the script and said ‘ youll need this for the future’ i think this links so well with the 11th doctor. i really hope you bring the 10th doctor back and cathrine tate!!
melissa
May 6th, 2012 - 9:30pmi also dont think it should e just 1 epsiode i think it should be a 3 part episode and the cybermen and daleks should have a part in it as they are a big part of the doctors past, i also like the judon:)
Jason doctorwhoone
May 7th, 2012 - 7:49amYour wrong about how the Doctor got the Manuscript from Sally, he wasint trying to find in order to acquire it, cos he didint even know her, she gave it to him and told him –
” Ok, listen. One day, your gonna get stuck in 1969, keep that with you “.
IronsideDalek
May 8th, 2012 - 10:08pmIf they do bring back past incarnations of the Doctor, it should be for the 50th Anniversery special.
the astronaut of death
May 6th, 2012 - 7:54pmdo you think moffat has got the plot for the 50th in there head yet
booboo
May 6th, 2012 - 7:55pmi think he will have some idea yes, filming will start very shortly for the second half of series 7 due to be shown in 2013 which may have some sort of lead in to whatever he has planned
Anonymous
May 6th, 2012 - 4:04pmI’d like there to be
1. The Master, with no memory of the End of Time, being used by the Silence to kill the Doctor
2. An old enemy like the Black Guardian in charge of the Silence
3. Susan Foreman
4. A cameo of Ian Chesterton
5. The return to Trotters Lane
6. The 8th Doctor
7. Another classic Doctor (5th or 7th)
8. The fact that the Doctor’s name is the key to opening the Time locked time war
9. Omega trying to use the Doctor’s name to unlock to time lock so the time war would destroy the universe
10. K9
11. An Unearthly Child being shown on the 23rd November
12. Daleks killing a lot of people again
13. UNIT
14. Either Captain Yates or Sergeant Benton alongside Colonel Mace or Captain Magambo
15. Davros
crazy guy
May 6th, 2012 - 4:51pmit is totters lane
Jason doctorwhoone
May 6th, 2012 - 5:11pmYeah, what the heck is it with some people calling it Trotters Lane ? it’s TOTTERS LANE !!.
I guess someones been watching too much Only Fools and Horses and can’t get the surname Trotter out of their heads.
Callum
May 6th, 2012 - 10:23pmGod I LOVE your idea
timelordgeek16
May 8th, 2012 - 3:17pmThat’s a g8 list. I agree with all that!!!

the astronaut of death
May 5th, 2012 - 8:27pmthe time lords return and set out on a trek to get revenge on the doctor
doctor who
May 5th, 2012 - 4:28pmthe doctor’s name could be a code to the tardis and when it is answered the tardis explodes causing crack in time and the silence don’t want this.the villian could be the black guardian or omega.the doctor is framed by the unknown villian and the silence believe this so set up war and create an alliance to get him in the pandorica when really the belief of the silence is some other villians plan and they use the doctor’s name to blow it up this villian could be the leader of the silents
doctor who
May 5th, 2012 - 4:23pmhere is another idea that the doctor’s name is going to reveal the truth that the time lords serve the silence who are being who manipulate the scenes or are from outside time or something.his name maybe the code to the truth about time lords or the time lords were at war with the silents and the silents were over thrown by time lords as they were the original time lords and the doctor’s name will tell the truth changing time and maybe erasing the silents the true controllers and they are connected to the guardians of time or something complicated.
doctor who
May 5th, 2012 - 4:18pmthe anniversary starts of with the master being resurrected from the time war by the silence in there plan to kill the doctor soon they give him an order but he has another plan up his sleeve to open the time lock so hell can wage over the universe and time lords can be released little knowing the silence are controlling him soon the time war conquers time and space.but the master under the command of the silence plans to use the time lords and daleks to hunt down the doctor and kill him to stop a terrible event at the fields of trenzalore when the eleventh falls.the eleven doctors return and we see the war against the doctor by the silence which is connected to the time war and we soon begin to see the final battle on trenzalore as the full army of silents[millions of silents]come to kill the doctor for this is the fall of the eleventh but is the eleventh more than regenration is it the truth of the silence.they believe the doctor’s name will do something to them or will reveal a dark secret that will reveal the truth of the silence or something in time lord history to do with the other and omega
djed dr who fernatic
May 5th, 2012 - 3:47pmi would personaly love david tennant to come back he is the best he is my idol maybe christopher eccleston could return aswell it would be great to see the 10th and 11th meet and join forces with rose,mickey,,donna,martha,captian jack,daleks jackie,k9,mr smith and others from christopher eccleston to now. love if bbc could take this onboard yours
Some bloke
May 5th, 2012 - 12:36pmI hate to grind everyone’s ideas about the time war to a halt, but I read in the latest doctor who magazine that in an interview with steven moffat, he said that there are certain parts of the doctors past that we will never see and that the time war was one of them. So it looks like the time war for the 50th is a no go. Sorry
Andrew
May 5th, 2012 - 6:44amI was thinking… What if there was a prequel or something to the 50th Anniversary Episode. Like a whole episode just featuring the 8th and 9th Doctors in the Time War? I think that’d be great. Then it links into the next episode with the 11th Doctor and his new companion and whatever. Instead of trying to make the story to complicated with to many loose ends.
Andrew
May 5th, 2012 - 7:34amPlease tell me what you think of my idea.
Jason doctorwhoone
May 5th, 2012 - 8:43amWell as I, and others have been saying but clearly alot of fan’s don’t seem to pay any attention what so ever, Christopher Eccleston won’t be coming back to Doctor Who ever as he wants no future involvement in it . . . . typical I know, but that’s Chris for you, always comes across as abit stubborn in my view of him.
Jason doctorwhoone
May 5th, 2012 - 8:44amPaul McGann on the other hand, HE’D LOVE TO COME BACK !!. . . . but no body bothers to ask him.
Give me a Dalek any day
May 5th, 2012 - 10:39amMatt Smith thinks it’d be good if Paul McGann came back! Now all he has to do is drop the hint to Moffat.
Some bloke
May 5th, 2012 - 12:35pmI hate to grind your idea to a hault, but I read in the latest doctor who magazine that in an interview with steven moffat, he said that there are certain parts of the doctors past that we will never see and that the time war was one of them. So it looks like the time war for the 50th is a no go. Sorry

booboo
May 4th, 2012 - 8:47pm8th doctor’s regeneration (although i doubt we will see 9th Doctor)
Jason doctorwhoone
May 5th, 2012 - 8:47amThe Master is dead, and hey, let it stay that way, cos he got the happy ending he deserved, getting revenge on Rassilon as it was he who drove the young boy who became the Master to losing his marbles and going bonkers with mad schemes of ruling the Universe.
Rest in Piece Koschei [ a.k.a. The Master ].
Tardis’nt
May 5th, 2012 - 10:13amone thing i didn’t understand was, how was rassilon alive? he was dead in the classic series which was way before the tiime war! and somehow i don’t think we’ve seen the last of the master, he is too good a character to just be killed off!
Jason doctorwhoone
May 5th, 2012 - 12:23pmRassilon was never dead. In the Five Doctors, it’s revealed he was infact immortal, but simply asleep all that time lying on his nice comfy bed in the Dark Tower a.k.a. the Tomb of Rassilon. The ring on his finger is what made him immortal.
Rassilon knew that immortality was a curse and not a blessing.
But it is confusing that it’s said he was resurrected by the Time Wars when the old chap wasint even dead to begin with, ha ha 😀
Jason doctorwhoone
May 5th, 2012 - 12:24pmResurrected by the TIME LORDS not Time Wars, my bad 🙁

May 6th, 2012 - 10:55amthanks, i did not know that. 😀
dalekdude97
May 4th, 2012 - 8:09pmmulti doctor episode with unit, past companions, omega alongside a new alien threat and no story arc.
This is what i want on the 50th annerversary episode.
Anon
May 4th, 2012 - 8:07pmbooboo I just want to know why this article is on the site over a year before the actual event
booboo
May 4th, 2012 - 8:26pmbecause we are asking what people would like to see
tardisiornside
May 4th, 2012 - 5:33pmi would like to see a 50th annerversary episode where earth ends up as battleground for aliens from all the universe fighting for an artifact
that will grant whoever has it infinete power
and the doctor has to stop them with the help of unit forces before its to late
Jason doctorwhoone
May 4th, 2012 - 7:58pmHe’d need far more then assistance from UNIT.
JoeAndTeddy
May 4th, 2012 - 4:25pmHeres another idea:
Maybe the Fields of Trenzalore are somewhere on the death zone in Gallifrey?
Whofan#1
May 4th, 2012 - 4:37pmWhat a really good idea
?
May 4th, 2012 - 12:02amI’d love to see Ian Chesterton or Susan Foreman come in. They’re still alive, take advantage while you can!
Marswho
May 3rd, 2012 - 9:03pmI heard somewhere that their was going to be a twist near the end of the 50th series season. It could be that the doctor, still in his 11th incarnation is turned into a women.
Jason doctorwhoone
May 4th, 2012 - 6:47amUtter rubbish, who believes that nonsense.
the astornaut of death
May 4th, 2012 - 1:06pmwell there have been quite alot of rumors latley that the doctor is turning into a woman
crazy guy
May 4th, 2012 - 3:58pmyeah but i hope this dose not happen
Marswho
May 4th, 2012 - 4:00pmI think it would be quite funny
JoeAndTeddy
May 4th, 2012 - 4:26pmThis isn’t true, Moffatt would never do that
Plus: he denied these rumours on Twitter
Whofan#1
May 4th, 2012 - 4:35pmAnd any if the Doctor was born male then he stays male
booboo the third
May 4th, 2012 - 5:16pmI really dont agree with the doctor changing into a woman but I also dont agree with Whofan#1 because remember in the doctors wife he said that his friend was a bad boy and girl
Bigger on the Inside
May 3rd, 2012 - 9:00pmI don’t know why but I have a terrible feeling the may end dr who on the anniversary
Jason doctorwhoone
May 4th, 2012 - 6:50amDoctor Who WILL NEVER END mate. It’s moved on from TV in comic-strips, novels etc, so in some shape or form, Doctor Who continues, even during the those 16 years when there was no Doctor Who apart from the 1996 TV Movie.
Gallifrey had it’s Dark Time, the 1990’s and early 2000’s was our Dark Time in Doctor Who Fandom.

May 4th, 2012 - 1:07pmmoffat has reveled filming is set for 2014
JoeAndTeddy
May 4th, 2012 - 4:20pmYou obviously dont know enough about Doctor who then…? haha only joking
Doctor Who will not end in the 2013 anniversary. I feel the doctor will regenerate tho
Give me a Dalek any day
May 4th, 2012 - 4:33pmI also have a feeling the Doctor will regenerate in 2013, but I really want Matt Smith to stay untill at least 2015.
Davros
June 6th, 2012 - 6:56pmMatt Smith might continue after 50th and the contract maybe to be extended to 2014/2015

May 3rd, 2012 - 7:22pmI REALLY don’t want the question to be answered. This is an anniversary of 50 years of never knowing who the Doctor is, that’s the heart of the show. What would be the point of blowing that to pieces, just ‘cos it’s been around for 50 years?
