Welcome to the Library, a planet-sized archive of every idea that I have ever had during my time on this Wiki for my various Doctor Who-related creative projects!

The Library exists to catalogue the growth and development of my many works. While some of the ideas listed here are in use today, many others are not. Rather than lose these unused concepts to the sands of time, they shall be stored here for safekeeping.

 * CASTING CHANGE: The Thirteenth Doctor will be played by Jason Isaacs.
 * The Thirteenth Doctor begins a romantic relationship with a woman known only as "the Shaman."
 * It is implied that the Shaman is a future incarnation of the Doctor.

 * The Doctor answers the Question and begins a hunt for Gallifrey.
 * After the return of Gallifrey, the Doctor is revealed to be the Other reincarnated.

 * The Doctor wins this battle by calling upon everyone he has ever helped throughout history. By finally accepting his identity as the Other, the Doctor repairs the glitch in his regenerative cycle.
 * The Doctor becomes the new ruler of Gallifrey and regenerates again.
 * EPISODE CONCEPT: Photographs. Something is attacking the citizens of Earth through photographs, sucking them in, trapping them, immortalizing them in time so they die but cannot pass on. At first people just start disappearing and then turning up in photographs, pained expressions on their faces like they're trying to escape their prison but cannot. Then the danger becomes more real. The people in the photographs, even the ones who were there before the ones that go missing were captured, start moving. The Doctor helps a common British family discover that it's dangerous to keep so many instances of frozen time in one place. But how does the Doctor stop this new threat? Does he go into the photos, or does he coax something to come out? The madness only intensifies when at the end of his journey, the Doctor comes across a mysterious photo that is unlike the others, one of his first incarnation. There is a flash of light, a camera flash, and the Doctor awakens in a mysterious world, lying on the ground. Standing above him is the First Doctor. "Tell me! Who are you?" the Doctor demands to know. "Why, I'm the Doctor." the First Doctor responds.

 * S11E01 Villain/Plot Idea - I had the idea that maybe we could use the Vashta Nerada? I'd like a physical enemy, but think…a dark forest is a primary setting, so plenty of "shadow opportunities." Maybe the Vashta Nerada want a physical form, seek the Doctor's body, and aim to escape with it in the TARDIS to consume the denizens of other worlds in darkness? Maybe the clue to Gallifrey could be the skeletal remains of a Time Lord…
 * A family who lives in a log cabin in a deep, dark forest rescues and cares for the Doctor while he's unconscious.
 * The Doctor protects this family from the Vashta Nerada as payment, not because he cares about them (or so he says).
 * After the Vashta Nerada threat passes, the Doctor has a moment with the family's eldest daughter, who asks to travel with him. The Doctor tells her no, and she asks if he'll be lonely. The Doctor then motions to the TARDIS, fully repaired with a new interior design, saying that it is the only companion he'll ever need. The daughter is saddened by this, but the Doctor, being a charmer and gentleman in this incarnation, as well as a little lustful, draws her in for a passionate kiss before departing.
 * The episode could take place in Victorian France...I was looking at old architecture, such as Notre Dame Cathedral, and had the idea that maybe the Doctor could face off against a series of skeletons possessed by the Vashta Nerada as they scale the building.
 * This episode needs to do the following, no matter what:
 * Set the Doctor off on his quest to find Gallifrey, no matter what (I was thinking that he finds the remains of a Vashta Nerada victim and finds a medal or something with Gallifreyan writing on it amidst the skeletal remains).
 * Establish the Doctor as a flawed, unstable man who is darker, meaner, and more unreliable than his past incarnations.
 * If the Doctor Gets a Companion - I've had the idea that perhaps the companion is somehow the Rani, returned to the form of an adolescent girl through experimentation on her own body in a desperate attempt to cheat death after her regenerative cycle expires…
 * The companion does not necessarily have to be a secret or blatant antagonist; I just think, given her unusual youth in comparison to other companions, her personality should be something intriguing like her herself. She is something higher than a normal adolescent (many things about her are meant to suggest or hint at this) and should at least be a complex character people can get attached to (or love to hate if she's an antagonist). She is someone I could have a lot of fun with; maybe she could have a childlike demeanor, making her dangerous and unpredictable, but this hides an equally dangerous wit. Perhaps she toys with the Doctor or views him as his plaything; sometimes, she'd help him, while other times, she'd hinder him.
 * This companion should at least have the same level of prominence in the Doctor's life as Clara currently does, being the one who has helped the Doctor in each of his incarnations' lives...
 * As far as how many episodes I would like to write, my answer is this: the same as in an official season of Doctor Who. If I adhere to tradition, then that means a grand total of 13 per series.
 * In terms of what type of plot I'd like to have: something that has as much prominence as the Silence did during Matt Smith's run as the Eleventh Doctor. On the Thirteenth Doctor's adventures, the plot is hinted at and/or moved towards, while some episodes devote themselves to it. This would be true for both Series 11 and Series 12.
 * If we bring back Rassilon and Omega, we have two of Gallifrey's founders right there. If we reveal the Doctor to be the Other reincarnated, then we could have a three-way battle for rule over Gallifrey, and I feel like that has much "epicness" potential. The one thing I want to stress about the Time Lords this time around is I want them to be a bit more grand in terms of their design.
 * The three-way battle would either start mid-series and effect the rest of the Doctor's adventure, or it would take place in the finale. Perhaps there could be a Master/Doctor team-up; the Doctor would involve himself if he were the Other reincarnated, but it is over the course of this battle that he would learn where Gallifrey truly is.
 * The three-way battle should start in Series 11's finale and serve as the series cliffhanger. The battle can then be the background of Series 12 and the Doctor's need to give the Answer.
 * Regarding the rebuilding of Gallifrey, that's a gradual "in the background" thing, and not something I wanted to focus on plot-wise. Whenever the Doctor returns home in future series, we'd see that things improve a little bit every time. Ultimately, the end result of this course of action will be New Who with a Classic Who feel, perfectly uniting the two eras in the show's history.
 * Personality-wise, the Thirteenth Doctor is a reference to the unluckiness/death brought about by the number 13 in many cultures. As such, he is dark, prefers to work alone, self-absorbed, et cetera. He is still a hero, but he is one who makes all the wrong choices. Over time, though, we see him start to mellow out a bit and become sort of like the Twelfth Doctor or Ninth Doctor, where he still has spurts of darkness but the potential for kindness and humor.
 * The reason I decided to make the Thirteenth Doctor vain is because every Doctor in New Who comments on his body after his regeneration; I had to think of a way to darken that tradition. This Doctor would have a thing for "checking himself out."
 * Imagine the Thirteenth Doctor seeing his new face for the first time in a reflective surface and comedically stopping in a tense moment to say, "Aren't we looking handsome?" or something along those lines…
 * This Doctor is sort of feeling the side-effects of Gallifrey inside him. He's maddened and in immense pain as the planet and its people try to emerge from within him. This produces his darker personality. Or perhaps this is Omega's doing. He is traveling with the specific goal of finding Gallifrey.
 * I had the idea that the Doctor would learn at some point that in an alternate timeline, HE has become a Dalek. It'd really play off the "You would be a good Dalek" line, as well as bring the Doctor's morality into question. Maybe this episode sees the Doctor team up with a Dalek who is strangely good; it's revealed in the climax that this Dalek is the Doctor himself, who had to sacrifice his form to save others.
 * The Doctor teams up with the first good Dalek he has ever encountered, one that is TARDIS blue in coloration to hint at its true nature.
 * Funnily enough, I was thinking that Rusty would perhaps be the main antagonist, if not Davros. The Doctor believes there is a good Dalek (and so do we) until the very end of the episode, when it is revealed at the last second who the Dalek really is.
 * The Doctor may sacrifice himself in the final battle with Omega. Jason Isaacs plays a character in the Star Wars franchise who has the quote "There are some things far more frightening than death." The character in question says this before leaping to his doom, so I thought it'd be cool for any other Star Wars/Doctor Who fans out there to reference this.
 * The Doctor's darkness must be pushed, for he surely is going mad with all those Time Lords inside him.
 * Ultimately, Gallifrey is restored physically in the Thirteenth Doctor's final moments, adding a Classic Who feel to the show, or perhaps trapping the galaxy once again in the Time War…
 * I personally don't think the Time War needs to be explored at all, but it's kinda been established that Gallifrey cannot return without this side-effect. Unless the Time Lords managed to trick the universe by hiding inside the Doctor, the war would only ignite long enough for a single episode, during the course of which the Doctor is able to stop it before his past is repeated.
 * If there is anything going on with the Time War, it would not be until Series 12 when Gallifrey actually returns. My question then is what about the Silence? Wouldn't they be active again if they caught wind of what the Doctor is up to? The whole reason they exist is to stop the Time War from happening again...maybe this could somehow allow the "Silent Night" episode idea I had to happen, thus justifying their return?
 * Two quick, important things to note: this plot line justifies "Am I a good man?" and much of the Doctor's dialogue in Series 8, if you think about it (including his lack of knowledge upon regeneration about how to fly the TARDIS), in the sense that he has thousands of Time Lord souls inside of him. He is no longer just one man anymore. He is thousands of people, all at once. And this is a danger to him. Also, Missy will be revealed to be correct when she gives the Doctor Gallifrey's coordinates; she gets where it will appear right, not when. How ironic it is that the Doctor has Gallifrey inside him when he only finds empty space at the end of Series 8...
 * Series 12 sees the Doctor trying to accomplish two goals: building the ideal environment for Gallifrey to return, and also finding a way to restore the planet and its people that won't force his regeneration. A big thing to figure out for Series 12 is the relevance that the Question has once again, and the fact that the Question is actually going to be answered.
 * What I'm hoping for in Series 11 right now is that people will grow close enough to the Doctor that when they learn the entire series up till now has basically been pointless (he's been searching across the universe and back for something he only needs to look inside himself to find), their frustration will be as great as the Doctor's.
 * A darker and possibly more tragic series is something I'm shooting for; Series 11 could be the Doctor's fall, while Series 12 could be his redemption and rise. The end result would be Gallifrey's return; perhaps the planet is his reward for finally stopping running and facing his fears to answer the Question.
 * By the Doctor's downfall and then redemption, I meant in Series 11, he's very dark and makes all the wrong choices. Series 12 sees him learning and transforming into more of a wiser individual.
 * "Look inside yourself and you will find the answer." This is exactly the kind of stuff I'm thinking. For a shorter arc name, maybe "The Hunt for Gallifrey."
 * In regards to the Question, I really think I'm gonna have to pull a Moffat...maybe not have the Answer be inaudible, but perhaps cut to a new scene just as the Doctor reveals it, and then show the effects of that revelation.
 * The Doctor has said his name cannot be pronounced...then again, "the Doctor lies." I want Series 11 and 12 to pull the heartstrings of readers, so perhaps the Doctor has lost so much at this point that he's grown desperate.
 * Random Ideas: The companion introduced is somehow time incarnate. Episodes in Series 11 would see the return of the Ice Warriors and Weeping Angels, potentially. Maybe a few Classic Who villains will appear...
 * How Gallifrey will play into the series is a question for another day; I'm thinking we would see no more of the planet or the Time Lords than we already do; the Doctor is still traveling and such like he does now, with occasional stops home. What's important now is that he'll have the burden of finding his home off his shoulders.
 * Ideas for Future Doctors: Tom Hiddleston, Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Eric Idle, Ralph Fiennes
 * I'm also thinking the Doctor's age in each incarnation can be different; he can go back-and-forth from old to young and it shouldn't really matter. So I guess this means I can use Tom Hiddleston, Bill Nighy, and Kenneth Branagh with no issues.
 * I should probably mention that at some point in my little Whoniverse, the Doctor will become a woman, just as Moffat said he will some day. Again, that's way in the future, at least Series 15 material. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
 * I'm thinking that the format of Series 11 (and likely 12) will be this: 13 episodes - a 2-part opener devoted to the overarching plot, 4 adventure-type episodes where the plot takes a back seat and is only hinted at, a 2-part mid-series episode devoted to the overarching plot, 3 adventure-type episodes where the plot takes a back seat and is only hinted at, and finally, a 2-part series finale where the overarching plot reaches its climax and draws to a close.
 * I've been batting around tons of stuff in my head about a potential companion for the Doctor in Series 12. He's mostly alone in Series 11 because he prefers it that way; this makes him a huge departure from his past incarnations. He eventually softens. I'm thinking the Thirteenth Doctor's sort of forced to have a companion, one who stows away on the TARDIS, and he gradually warms up to her. I also like adding variety to my companions; I'm picturing someone who is an adolescent, so this would make her quite different from the adults the Doctor has taken with him in the past. I'm all for exploring aliens/robots/males in the future, though.

 * The fact that Gallifrey is inside the Doctor gives us a reason to pity him: he is going mad with the thousands of souls inside him, he doesn't know if his thoughts and actions are his own, et cetera. He goes through a lot of emotional turmoil. I considered justifying the Thirteenth Doctor's refusal to regenerate and free Gallifrey with the Tenth Doctor's "I don't want to go." Maybe after the Question is answered, in the Thirteenth Doctor's final moments, this changes to "I have to go." Series 12 sees the Doctor go through a lot of transformations personality-wise; we've mentioned Series 11 is his metaphorical fall, so this would be his rise and redemption. He is a new man. With the Question answered and his past reconciled with, he is free from his past transgressions and can truly, finally live.
 * The more I think about it, the more I feel like we should indeed pursue the return of Omega, at least for now. As for whether or not the Time Lords and Gallifrey as a whole will still be suffering from the effects of the Time War, I'd say it was released from that burden and given the chance to rebuild when the Doctor saved Gallifrey during The Day of the Doctor. Maybe Omega has somehow interfered with Gallifrey's recovery, though...The Doctor will play a huge role in the rebuilding of his home into a peaceful, prosperous society. It will not have the flaws that it did under the rule of people like Rassilon. If there's one thing the Doctor has learned on his eons-long journey, it's not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
 * In regards to the Doctor being linked to the Other, we could hint at the Doctor being the Other with phrases such as, "The Answer comes not from the Doctor, but from an Other." (another)
 * Series 11 of Doctor Who sees the newly-regenerated Thirteenth Doctor embark on a quest to find his missing home planet, Gallifrey, that takes him to the farthest regions of the known universe and across the event horizon.
 * Unfortunately, every clue the Doctor finds on his hunt leads him to a dead end; it is ultimately revealed that this is because Gallifrey does not exist in a physical form or specific location. Realizing his search has been in vain, the Doctor abandons all hope of returning his home planet to the universe until he learns that it has been alive inside him ever since he first entered his twelfth incarnation. This is because the Time Lords had hidden their entire civilization in the regenerative energy they bestowed upon the dying Eleventh Doctor on Trenzalore.
 * Regeneration is the only way the Doctor can fully and truly free Gallifrey and its people; he likes his present incarnation, however, and decides to search across time and space for an alternate means of accomplishing this task.
 * Moving forward, I'm thinking about the plot of Series 12. I want to bring the Answer to the Question into play and somehow link it to the Doctor's ability to restore Gallifrey to the universe. Now that he knows the planet and its people are inside him, the Doctor's next step is to prepare the universe for his planet's return. He also is trying to find a way to do so that does not require his regeneration.
 * For a potential basic plot summary for Series 12, I have: The Doctor must face his biggest fears when his final incarnation, the Valeyard, returns from the future to destroy everything he holds dear. The key to stopping the Valeyard lies in the Doctor's past, thus the Time Lord sets out on an epic quest to unlock his biggest secret. However, shadowy figures lurk in the darkness…The Valeyard is just the beginning…
 * Christmas Special Idea - The episode, titled Next Christmas, would be a sort of follow-up to 2014's Last Christmas. Just as Last Christmas featured Santa Claus, Next Christmas would feature Krampus, Santa's evil counterpart in Alpine folklore. The dream crabs would return; they are what Krampus uses to punish the children of the world on Christmas when they misbehave. Rather than pleasurable dreams, the dream crabs are now trapping their victims in overwhelming nightmares. Not only must the Doctor defeat the dream crabs once again, but he must also save the children of the world from Krampus, as well.
 * I personally don't want to emulate any previous Doctors, if I can help it. That's just lazy, in my opinion. However, Nine seems to be the most like what I want Thirteen to be: dark but likable. He's at least more like Jason Isaacs' previous roles than Peter Capaldi has been as Twelve.
 * The moment the Thirteenth Doctor is "born," he activates a sort of glitch in his regenerative cycle. This unleashes his darkness; the Valeyard thus becomes the "dark force" in my opening episode that wants to use the Doctor's comatose body and the TARDIS for an evil purpose.

 * I cast Charles Dance as the Valeyard in Series 12; as an older individual, I thought Dance totally looked the part of "the Doctor's final incarnation." I also find him to be quite similar to Jason Isaacs in subtle ways; I thought this was a perfect way to suggest two different actors were playing the same individual: the Doctor.
 * I envision Charles Dance's Valeyard to be a villain we must pity; he has endured centuries of pain and heartbreak and has loved and lost a million times. He no longer wishes to live, so he goes back in time to destroy his past self.
 * I had the idea that since the Answer was to be incorporated into Series 12, perhaps it holds the power to destroy the Doctor if it is revealed? The Valeyard plans to speak it at a certain place to eliminate the Thirteenth Doctor, but the Doctor is the one who ultimately has to reveal his true name in order to stop the Valeyard...
 * I'd like to again discuss the ideas I've had for the Thirteenth Doctor's (potential) companion. What I picture is a sort of River Song-like individual, but rather than a fully-grown woman, she is a girl in her early teens. She has a deep connection to the Doctor (if not the universe or time itself), and she crosses paths with him many times, sometimes appearing as a friend, and other times as an adversary.
 * Personality-wise, this girl (I say "girl," but I'm thinking she is a stronger, non-human entity that just chooses to take a 12-year-old's form for whatever reason) is bright, optimistic, and able to take care of herself. She is sometimes a few steps ahead of the Doctor and enjoys toying with him. Despite her maturity, this girl is scared to be alone.
 * Perhaps the girl's fear of being alone is what prompts the Doctor to make her his companion?
 * I have considered casting Raffey Cassidy as this companion. She's a relatively unknown British actress whose most recent on-screen appearance was in Disney's Tomorrowland. I liked the way she portrayed her character in that film, and I used it as the basis for the companion ideas I presented above.
 * IDEAS FOR EPISODES - The Doctor goes to the time of the Cavemen - It might be cool to see the Doctor amongst wooly mammoths and whatnot. Ancient Egypt - We've seen Egyptian things in Doctor Who before, but nothing has been set in Egypt yet, to my knowledge. The Doctor in Rome - Yes, we have "The Fires of Pompeii," and we'll likely see Rome again in Series 9, but the image of the Doctor fighting for his life in a gladiator match against a lion was cool to me. The Mystery of Amelia Earhart - One of the biggest Earth mysteries of the real world just screams Doctor Who to me!
 * The Doctor was subtly ordered by the Curator in "Day of the Doctor" to find Gallifrey. It's been his mission since then to locate his home planet; he knows he saved it, but he cannot be sure until he finds it. We can see from the events of "Death in Heaven" that finding Gallifrey is still the Doctor's goal, but the stuff with Missy got in the way. So it's like finding Gallifrey is the Doctor's ongoing, background objective. For Series 11, however, it needs to be his primary one. No more distractions. He won't rest until his planet is saved. He wants to find it. He needs to. No one and nothing else matters until Gallifrey is safe again.
 * I thought of the Thirteenth Doctor being the next step in a new regeneration cycle of flawed, dark Doctors leading up to the Valeyard; this would be touched upon in Series 12 and reveal the Doctor's new regeneration cycle is filled with glitches placed purposefully by the Time Lords - if they are antagonistic, they are merely using the Doctor to be brought back into power; they will dispose of him when they are done.
 * That said, I wanted the Thirteenth Doctor to be what Capaldi was rumored to be but ended up not being: dark and dangerous, not just some grouchy old man. Whereas the Twelfth Doctor was never confirmed to have pushed the Half-Face Man to his death or not, the Thirteenth Doctor is the type who definitely would have pushed him. To further set the Twelfth and Thirteenth Doctors apart, the Twelfth Doctor has that line in the Series 9 trailer, "I'm the Doctor, and I save people!" The Thirteenth Doctor's perspective is more like, "I'm the Doctor, and I save people by accident." What I mean by this is the Thirteenth Doctor doesn't plan to save anyone; he's just dealing with the obstacles that dare face him on his desperate search for Gallifrey, and it just so happens that the side-effect of his search is a positive one for those who are not involved.
 * As far as likability, the Thirteenth Doctor would need to have the qualities that make Jason Isaacs' darker characters so likable. Charm and a sense of mystery, mostly. You can't help but like this guy, is what I'm saying.
 * So I thought up a way I could get the darkness I want from the Doctor while still giving him the chance to be likable:
 * He's unstable. Very unstable, prone to outbursts and fits of rage. He hurts those he's closest to without realizing it and winds up pushing others away. He is slowly isolating himself and deteriorating; this new regeneration is failing him. But an isolated Doctor is just what the Time Lord's many enemies want: if it's just him alone, he's not as much of a threat, or so they think.
 * On the other side of the coin, the Doctor is a charming, wise individual. His icy stare shields any true emotions he may be feeling; he is a walking riddle. He cares deeply for his companions, but something is rising within him that he cannot necessarily control…

ELABORATION ON THE ABOVE SEVERAL POINTS
 * S11E01 Idea - My idea is inspired by the basic premise of S9E09, "Sleep No More," even though it is an episode whose concept does not excite me in the slightest…
 * That said, the episode is going to consist of a series of "Captain's Log"-type videos with the newly-regenerated Thirteenth Doctor; he's going to speak of, from the moment he regenerated, how he started his epic search for Gallifrey, which he is now on as of the episode's conclusion.
 * As the Doctor describes events, we will have flashbacks that depict the events he describes; he'll sort of narrate them, I'm thinking.
 * Basically, this is a way to cram a lot of content into a single episode, without having to focus on a particular enemy or event for the entirety of an episode. While it may seem disorganized and hectic, that is the idea behind the Doctor's hunt for Gallifrey. We only see a brief glimpse of his regeneration, and then BOOM, it's off on his hunt to set up the story arc for the series.
 * This episode may have a lot of fan-service in it, but I assure you I will not include anything unless it has a specific purpose for being there.
 * I had a couple more ideas that could play into the "finding Gallifrey" or "return of the Valeyard" arcs…
 * The Valeyard is seeking something known as the "Gateway to Gallifrey."
 * The Doctor is forced to make a hard decision that will result in him having to sacrifice either the ability to time travel or the ability to regenerate.
 * I also had an idea for how the Doctor could interact with a new companion in the future, though it sounds almost like something Capaldi's Doctor could be doing in Series 9 to Clara, so we'll have to see…
 * The Doctor knows his companion is going to die. He takes the companion on various adventures, but each place they visit together is actually a "checkpoint" on the list of locations the companion must be before his/her death can take place.
 * Another idea I had regarding the "Gateway to Gallifrey" (tentative name):
 * A Time Lord must sacrifice his life in order to open this mythical doorway; it drains him of his regenerations.
 * To obtain the Doctor's regenerations, the Valeyard seeks to make his past self open the Gateway and steal the regenerations from it as they are drained.
 * I was thinking the Gateway to Gallifrey and the Doctor's big sacrifice could have something to do with the return of Gallifrey and/or how the Doctor plans to release it after he learns it's inside him.
 * I was also thinking that the Gateway could possibly lead to a means of releasing Omega so that he can be the primary threat in Series 13, the time of the Thirteenth Doctor's last adventure, as well as the time of the "rise of the Thirteenth" and Gallifrey's return.
 * I envisioned the Valeyard as a character who seeks his own destruction by eliminating his past self. But this conflicts with the new idea I presented above…Perhaps the Valeyard simply seeks to use the Gateway to end his own life instead of killing the Doctor?
 * S11E01 Ideas
 * The episode opens with a flashback of the Doctor waking up from his post-regenerative coma, one that lasted several decades, hence the TARDIS's battered exterior covered with overgrown foliage. When he does, the thought "I must find Gallifrey" enters his mind, so he rushes off to do so.
 * The episode then transitions in an unexpected way; it is revealed that this was a flashback, a recollection in the Doctor's mind as he read from the pages of the Five Thousand Year Diary (the latest version of the Two Thousand Year Diary).
 * This opening recollection presents a challenge, in that the Doctor's opening monologue/voice over establishes the story arc, but it does not (or cannot) really convey his new personality.
 * Still in the present-day, the Doctor grows frustrated; the need to find Gallifrey is urgent at this point, for he has already wasted centuries searching, without any luck. The Five Thousand Year Diary isn't giving the Doctor any leads.
 * Somehow in the present, the Doctor needs to recall how his previous thirteen selves sealed Gallifrey away, that he fought on Trenzalore, and that he realized he was an idiot and learned what it meant to truly love another. This connects the Thirteenth Doctor to his previous selves.
 * Eventually, the Doctor decides to keep reading from the diary, in case he missed something.
 * From here, we see the Doctor stop at several locations across time and space, from ancient Rome, to alien planets, and so-on. All of these are places the Doctor has checked for clues about Gallifrey's location; they are all brought to life in a similar fashion to the opening of the episode as recollections in the Doctor's mind as he reads about them.
 * This is a very Doctor-heavy episode; he only interacts with other characters in his flashbacks, and that's where his new personality needs to be conveyed. Otherwise, the Doctor is completely alone for most of the episode, if not all of it.
 * The reason why I say "most" is because I'm tempted to reveal/introduce a new character as a sort of plot twist: the potential new companion, a teenage girl who is very mysterious and Ashildr-like, one who has more secrets than can be revealed right now. This girl appears out of no where, for the Doctor has been alone in the TARDIS reading for the whole episode, yet she claims she has been there the whole time. We thought the Doctor was talking to himself/the audience the whole time, when in reality, he was talking to her, or so she says…
 * There really isn't a villain in S11E01. The Doctor might face a threat or two (a lion tries to kill him in a gladiator match in Ancient Rome), but there is no concrete threat.
 * A random idea I had while staring at my digital clock was "What if the numbers were coordinates?" That would mean every 60 seconds, the coordinates would change. Heck, every millisecond, they'd change!
 * Series 11-13 (the Thirteenth Doctor's era) channels Series 5-7, or at least what those got right. Therefore, I'm thinking that Series 11 needs to open with a story like Series 5's, one that introduces the Thirteenth Doctor, explores his dark and unreliable personality, introduces how desperate he is to find Gallifrey, thus setting up the story arc, and also introduces a companion or two.
 * On the subject of companions, if I am to channel Matt Smith's era, I feel a male and female will be necessary. Thus I have a guy companion in mind I've tentatively named "James," and a female companion I've tentatively named "Gaby." Gaby is the Doctor's first companion, while James will become part of the TARDIS crew later on. These two need a deep story significance, though…there's a reason the Doctor has met them. There's a reason they are the destined partners of his he takes with him to learn Gallifrey's whereabouts…but what is it?
 * I've been thinking about the new companions and had an idea, but I feel like it's been used before: perhaps the Doctor must choose…find Gallifrey, or keep his companions alive. Given his desperation, the Thirteenth Doctor chooses Gallifrey.
 * Episodes in Series 11 alternate back and forth between plot-focused/relevant and personality-exploring. For example: The Cinderella Factor hints at the overarching plot since a scientist the Doctor meets is exploring quantum cloaking and the trails left by large-scale objects when they are folded into pocket universes. Like Gallifrey. Of Monsters and Men, meanwhile, answers the question of whether the Thirteenth Doctor is a hero or someone we should fear.
 * I still want to use the idea for a mysterious girl who appears before the Doctor, sometimes to help, and other times to hinder. Don't know how or when I'll be able to do that, nor do I know how or when someone like this could be plot-relevant…
 * At some point, I want the Doctor (if not the Thirteenth, then a future incarnation) to meet a mysterious Time Lady whom he forms romantic relations with; the Time Lady ends up giving her life for the Doctor, and it is upon her death that the Doctor learns that she is a future incarnation of himself…or would have been if she had not died. Because the woman-Doctor dies, she has been erased from the Doctor's regenerative pool (the possible choices for the Doctor's face, gender, etc. each time he regenerates).
 * I was randomly thinking about Christmas specials and the idea I had once about the Doctor visiting Biblical times to partake in the first Christmas. I explored the idea a little bit and decided the episode could possibly concentrate on the debate of science vs. religion that goes on today in real life; maybe the Doctor is able to meet the infant Christ at some point…"I'm holding the most important child in human history," he'd say. We would then see enormous growth from the Thirteenth Doctor in this single moment: he'd apologize for letting his desire to find Gallifrey awaken his inner darkness. He'd beg forgiveness and ultimately redeem himself (in terms of clearing his conscience) for all the wrongs he's committed: all the people he's refused to save, all the bad choices he's made, and so on. Before he leaves, the Doctor would acknowledge the important role Christ is to play in the future of humanity (this is a poignant "I can't save you from your future death" moment).
 * The Answer brings up the prophecy of the Rise of the Thirteenth, just as the Question brought up the prophecy of the Fall of the Eleventh. The Rise of the Thirteenth refers to the Thirteenth Doctor's defeat of Omega and successful rescue of Gallifrey in Series 13 (When Gallifrey returns, the Doctor essentially becomes the new head of his home world).
 * I agree a sacrifice of some sort should be made in order for the Doctor to free Gallifrey and the Time Lords from within himself.
 * Potential plot hole with the Series 11 story arc: The Time Lords are inside the Doctor, like a parasite. That said, why are they having him go off on some frantic search that will ultimately lead no where?
 * Indeed, the question "Is the Doctor a hero, or something to be feared?" is similar to "Am I a good man?" However, this is intentional.
 * The Doctor's thirteenth incarnation is the next step in a descent into darkness that ultimately draws out the Valeyard.
 * The Thirteenth Doctor is very unstable because of Gallifrey's presence within him; this is also why the Twelfth Doctor was so different from the Eleventh.
 * The Time Lords have essentially been preparing the Doctor for something that is only now coming to fruition; having so many voices and wills inside him to drive his actions makes the Thirteenth Doctor a ticking time-bomb that could cause everyone and everything's destruction.
 * Gallifrey is essentially a glitch or virus influencing the Doctor's second regenerative cycle in a negative way. It needs to be removed before it is too late.
 * The mysterious girl (if she even ends up being used) views the Doctor as a plaything; she toys with him simply because it is fun for her to do so.
 * I suppose Missy could fill this role. However, that depends on what happens to her in the Series 9 finale…
 * I want to introduce a female version of the Doctor simply because I'd like to tackle this concept before the BBC gets a chance.
 * I imagine the Doctor and this mysterious Time Lady having a dynamic similar to "The Doctor and River Song." Throwing a new character into the mix means River Song does not necessarily need to come back; perhaps the Doctor has based some of his future personality traits on River.
 * Even though the idea is odd, this could justify a romantic relationship between the two incarnations of the Doctor; the relationship idea also pokes fun at the Thirteenth Doctor's arrogance, for he is essentially "in love with himself."
 * Saying the mysterious female incarnation of the Doctor is from the future allows us to solidify the Doctor's eventual transition into a female. However, if we do not say when in the future this transition takes place, the Doctor can remain male for an indefinite period of time.
 * The Doctor would no longer be able to assume the form of this female regeneration because she gives her life to save him at one point. Bringing the female Doctor who does this back into existence would surely cause a paradox…
 * I also worry about the controversial nature of a "the Doctor meeting Christ" story. However, Doctor Who devoted two episodes to Satan in Series 2…
 * By having the Doctor partake in the events of the first Christmas, I want to tell a story that is more beautiful and poetic than anything else. I don't want to shove religion down people's throats, nor do I want to try to disprove a religion when it is what I believe in. I simply like the idea of the Doctor standing there in the Nativity and finally being able to redeem himself in preparation for a new series of adventures.
 * There is always the Krampus idea I had for a Christmas special, as well...

 * S11E01 SYNOPSIS: Having crashed the TARDIS, the newly-regenerated Thirteenth Doctor lies unconscious in the woods for decades. Meanwhile, an ancient evil awakens that seeks to use both the TARDIS and the Doctor's body for a wicked purpose.
 * S11E05 SYNOPSIS: A string of murders on New Mars and the search for an ancient Ice Warrior weapon force the Doctor to make a difficult decision.
 * S11E09 SYNOPSIS: In Perfection, beauty is the law. The Doctor must avoid temptation at the hands of the gorgeous Queen Saphira while he investigates the temporal forces acting upon her supposedly-magic mirror.
 * S11E02 SYNOPSIS: On the research station Ouroborous, a low-grade researcher has brought the long-extinct Wirrn back to life in hopes of gaining the attention of her superiors. When the insectoid aliens are set loose, the Doctor is called in to save the day.
 * Ideas for Episode Titles
 * S11E06 SYNOPSIS: While visiting England in 1897, the Doctor has a run-in with Bram Stoker, the author of Dracula.
 * Elaboration on The Warrior's Sword - Yes, "The Warrior's Sword" intentionally questions the Doctor's morality. It shows you how far-gone this thirteenth incarnation is; he does things past Doctors wouldn't dare do. This can be derived from the fact that for many people, 13 is an unlucky number, hence the Thirteenth Doctor would be "faulty."
 * Elaboration on The Queen's Mirror - "The Queen's Mirror" has to do with people's fear of death. The world of Perfection worships beauty and is meant to play off of the Thirteenth Doctor's own vanity; people become obsessed with appearances in the first place because they wish to look and be young as to avoid death.
 * S12E01 Synopsis - The Doctor teams up with Missy in 17th Century France to stop an evil entity from using the Doctor's body and the TARDIS for a wicked purpose.
 * S12E01 TEASER STUFF
 * "The bitch is back." - Yes, Missy is going to return in the first episode of Series 12, assuming something isn't done to prevent this.
 * "An unconventional TARDIS" - The Valeyard, the main villain of Series 12, is using the Doctor's TARDIS to accomplish his goal. Getting it back from him is one of the goals of the episode. However, to time travel, the Doctor needs to use Missy's TARDIS. I envisioned it being a black and gold sports car. The sight of that in the 17th century makes it "unconventional," not to mention its shape is very unlike that of the Doctor's TARDIS.
 * Louis XIII - This was to place the episode in terms of time period more than to suggest a character's appearance; while Louis may make a cameo, at most, this is meant to suggest 17th Century France as the setting for this episode.
 * "There is some evil in all of us, Doctor. Even you." - This is actually a quote from "Trial of a Time Lord" spoken by the Master. It hints at the Valeyard's return, as well as the Master's/Missy's involvement in the episode/story arc.
 * "Gateway to Gallifrey" - This could be the device that connects the three story arcs of the Thirteenth Doctor's era together.
 * S11E01 Idea - After the Thirteenth Doctor regenerates, he crash-lands in a forest. He emerges from the smoking TARDIS, and then he collapses. It's kinda like when the Tenth Doctor entered his post-regenerative coma. The Thirteenth Doctor's just took longer, possibly due to the absence of tea…
 * The Warrior's Sword Plot - The Ceremonial Sword of Lord Slazaxyr The World Bringer has been lost for thousands of years, and a troop of Ice Warriors, now peaceful inhabitants of the universe, has come to New Mars in order to find it, hoping it acts as the key to an energy bank that will reinvigorate the power grid of a long-established but now decaying city (as well as the life-support systems that keep the million or more inhabitants alive and cold). The Ice Warriors have a traitor in their midst, though, a killer who picks off their number and is mistaken to be the Doctor.
 * When the Doctor arrives on New Mars, he has a bad feeling about the Ice Warriors' search for the Sword. He is made to act as a guide through a trap-laden labyrinth; when they find the Sword, neither the Doctor nor Ice Lord Makara are able to remove it from the plinth of unmeltable ice. Warrior Izlak dislodges the Sword; he is revealed to be the killer, and he hopes to use the Sword to make himself the first Ice King. This warlike spirit is recognized by a genetic imprint in the sword, which rewrites Izlak's genetic code and returns his latent thirst for conquest. A simple touch from the corrupted Izlak taints Makara; the Doctor has to return to the decaying Ice Warrior city before the two born-again Ice Warriors can infect its millions with the spirit of conquest that was the nature of Slazaxyr.
 * As the genetic rewriting runs rampant, the Doctor is forced to destroy the city, along with its previously innocent citizens….
 * His final words on this decision? "There was a time when I might have wondered whether it was best for me to interfere in the affairs of the Ice Warriors or leave them to decide their fates themselves. I'm not that man any longer."
 * The Queen's Mirror Plot - On the world of Perfection, beauty is the law. Perfection is ruled by Queen Saphira by virtue of her own supreme beauty, as judged by the Articles of Perfection, which are handed down by the ancient Lords and Ladies. Through her 'magic mirror,' Saphira scrutinizes the whole of Perfection; those who break the Articles are not permitted to live.
 * The Doctor arrives on Perfection, and he is immediately arrested and put on trial by the Articles. If he is found beautiful, he will be allowed - obliged, even - to become a Lord of the Court of Perfection. His "ugly qualities" will be purged; if the Doctor does not meet Perfection's standards, however, he will be executed. The Doctor soon comes to realize that temporal forces are at work on Perfection; he confronts the Queen's mirror.
 * When the Doctor looks in, he sees a Weeping Angel starting back - the mirror is more than a security system; it is a temporal strongbox that keeps the "lifetime" of the Queen locked away so she can maintain her youth and beauty. The Doctor learns that the Queen is one of the original settlers of Perfection; she is thousands of years old and the original author of the Articles. The Queen fears aging and death; the Doctor smashes her mirror, releasing her time energy. This causes the Queen to age to death; the Doctor then smashes every mirror he can find on Perfection to prevent the mirror-angels from reassembling into a single, endlessly reflecting angel of death.
 * The Doctor assembles the mirror shards into a circle, quantum-locking the Weeping Angels when they see their reflections. The Doctor burns the Articles of Perfection to dust, leaving beauty on the world in the eye of the beholder.
 * Casting Idea: In The Queen's Mirror, Queen Saphira is played by Tilda Swinton.
 * Casting Idea II: In The Cinderella Factor, Dr Marcus Weaver is portrayed by Jack Davenport, and Kyle Matheson is portrayed by Tom Hollander.

 * Overall Series 11 Concept, as of 11/9/15 - The story of the Thirteenth Doctor begins. Following clues regarding Gallifrey's whereabouts, the Doctor embarks on a quest to find his home planet that takes him to the farthest reaches of the known universe and across the event horizon. What horrors await the Doctor on this multidimensional journey?
 * Series 11 echoes Series 5.
 * Overall Series 12 Concept, as of 11/9/15 - A continuation of the story of the Thirteenth Doctor, who must face his biggest fears when his final incarnation, the Valeyard, returns from the future to destroy everything he holds dear. The Doctor learns that the key to stopping the Valeyard lies in his past, thus he sets out on an epic journey to unlock his biggest secret.
 * Series 12 echoes Series 6.
 * Overall Series 13 Concept, as of 11/9/15 - TBA; when Omega returns, the Doctor is the only one who can defeat him. In the end, Gallifrey is won, and the prophecy of the "rise of the Thirteenth" is fulfilled.
 * Series 13 echoes the better elements of Series 7.
 * If we see the Time War begin again, the episode focusing on this shall be executed in a fashion similar to the collapsing timeline featured in The Wedding of River Song.
 * Alternatively, the Second Time War and a galaxy-at-war will serve as the background for Series 13.
 * Idea Concerning a Future Doctor - When Ralph Fiennes plays the Doctor, the Time Lord's personality is akin to that of Fiennes's character from The Grand Budapest Hotel, Gustave H.
 * Idea for the Thirteenth Doctor's Female Companion - A young woman named Gaby, possibly portrayed by Ophelia Lovibond. Gaby joins the Doctor on his quest to find Gallifrey at the end of S11E01.
 * Idea for the Thirteenth Doctor's Male Companion - A young man named James, possibly portrayed by Tom Hughes. James might join the Doctor and Gaby on their search for Gallifrey at the end of S11E06.
 * Synopsis for The Cinderella Factor (S11E02), as of 11/9/15 - The Doctor and his new companion Gaby travel to the space-based research station Ouroborous, where Dr Marcus Weaver is studying quantum cloaking and the trails left by high-mass objects when they are folded into pocket universes. Hoping to use Weaver’s expertise and equipment in his search for Gallifrey, the Doctor soon finds himself involved in a love-struck and undervalued scientist's desperate struggle to gain Dr Weaver's affection, a struggle that leads to the revival of the long-extinct Wirrn.
 * Revisiting the Doctor-Dalek Episode Idea - The Doctor teams up with the universe's only truly good Dalek (really the Doctor in Dalek form) to stop Davros and his armies from unleashing a terrible weapon upon the universe.
 * The Doctor must choose whether to save his companions or defeat Davros.
 * The Doctor-Dalek comes from an alternate really where the Doctor made the opposite decision.
 * Title Ideas: Clash of the Titans, A Good Dalek
 * Idea for S11E01, as of 11/9/15
 * The brand-new Thirteenth Doctor crashes the TARDIS in the woods and enters a post-regenerative coma that lasts for decades due to "an absence of tea."
 * Perhaps before the Doctor slips into his coma, he (inadvertently?) rescues a young woman named Gaby from a terrible threat.
 * Over the years, Gaby starts to suffer from amnesia and forgets her encounter with the Doctor. She finally remembers him as an old woman and finds both the unconscious Time Lord and his TARDIS deep within the woods.
 * At this time, the evil entity from before awakens once more. It seeks to use the TARDIS and the Doctor's body for a wicked purpose.
 * Gaby must team up with her younger self to rescue the Doctor.

 * IDEAS FOR A FUTURE DAVROS EPISODE
 * Title Idea: - Clash of the Titans (refers to the Doctor vs. Davros)
 * This episode revisits the prophecy about the coming of the Hybrid. It reveals the origins of both the Time Lords and the Daleks.
 * The Time Lords - Earth is destroyed in the year 5,000,000,000. Humanity spreads out into the stars, and those who discover time travel colonize a distant planet that comes to be known as "Gallifrey." These humans consider themselves to be above the rest of their kind, thus they call themselves the "Time Lords." Over the many centuries, exposure to the Time Vortex made these humans a new species.
 * The Daleks - It is a well-known fact that the Daleks are all that remain of the Kaled race. The Kaleds are, in fact, other humans from the distant future. Thus the Time Lords and the Daleks are cousin species.
 * It is revealed in this same episode that the reason why the Doctor loves Earth and humankind so much is indeed because he is half-human. The Doctor's mother is implied to be Ashildr/Me, a normal and immortal human who married a Time Lord and came to have a child whose body was elevated by science.
 * Perhaps the notion of being "alien" is central to the series in which this episode is used. The Doctor has been one of us all along, not a full alien. Even so, he is an outsider, an invader who is to be feared (even by his own people).
 * The term "alien" is used often in fiction as a metaphor for an "other." Perhaps this links to the revelation that the Doctor is the Other reincarnated.
 * As of 12/7/15, Series 11 will be about the return of the Valeyard. The story arc for Series 12 is now to-be-determined.
 * Perhaps the High Council seeks to use the Valeyard to somehow regain control over Gallifrey.
 * Perhaps the Doctor does not have a companion in Series 11 (either because he likes to work alone now or because he fears losing another person he loves). The eventual companion (Gaby) would appear in the first episode of Series 11, but she would not become a member of the TARDIS crew until Series 12 (which would then see her be joined mid-series by James).
 * Perhaps at some point, the Doctor has to strip away regeneration by regeneration to save the life of his companion(s).

Archive X

 * Maybe Series 11 and it subsequent sequel projects should be about the Twelfth Doctor/future "official" Doctors, rather than the fan-made Thirteenth Doctor…
 * The Doctor is always there for the people of Gallifrey; they need only call him, and he will be there to save the day.
 * Maybe the Doctor's new companion is secretly a Time Lord/Lady, but this has been hidden somehow; the companion is unknowingly acting as a spy for the High Council, which seeks to reclaim Gallifrey.
 * At some point, the Doctor faces off against robots that he names "the Blanks."
 * These robots are designed to infiltrate other planets and civilize them in preparation for the arrival of other species who seek to reside there. They allow the planets they invade to start over with a "blank slate," hence the name the Doctor chooses for them.

 * The entire series is about the DoctorDonna's attempt to reunite with the Doctor himself. She's always either one step ahead of him or behind him, though, as she goes on her own adventures with Jack Harkness and River Song to aid her.
 * That being said, I'm not sure how to distribute the episodes for The Doctor. All I know for certain is while they lead up to their overarching plot conclusions, the adventures of the reawakened DoctorDonna either lead into, take place at the same time as, or take place just after the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors' adventures (specifically from after The End of Time until at least Deep Breath).
 * Tagline for Series 1: "The Time Lord Awakens."
 * Cast of Series 1: Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, Alex Kingston as River Song, John Barrowman as Jack Harkness, Alan Cumming as the Master
 * Michelle Gomez makes a guest appearance.
 * Premise of Series 1: By learning to control her metacrisis powers with help from River Song and Captain Jack Harkness, Donna Noble is able to keep herself from burning up and dying. Even so, she is in grave danger. Old enemies are returning, hoping to use Donna's unstable Time Lord abilities for their own nefarious purposes.
 * The events of Series 1 take place analogous to the Eleventh Doctor's adventures.
 * The Master pretends to be a protagonist (perhaps with a different name) to get close to Donna before revealing his truly evil nature as the series progresses.
 * The Master seeks the DoctorDonna's untapped metacrisis energy to find Gallifrey before the Doctor does so that he can be its savior and gain the prestige and praise meant for his former best friend.
 * Missy is born as a result of the female-born metacrisis energy the Master absorbs in order to cheat death after his final battle with the DoctorDonna. The Master regenerates as he is about to die and assumes a female form.
 * Cast of Series 2: Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, Alex Kingston as River Song, John Barrowman as Jack Harkness
 * Premise of Series 2: A continuation of the story of the reawakened DoctorDonna, in which Captain Jack Harkness and River Song attempt to help Donna reunite with the Doctor. At the same time, the trio must face a new threat, one that seeks to rewrite history to promote the rise of a new world order.
 * The events of Series 2 take place analogous to the Twelfth Doctor's adventures.

 * Perhaps in the finale of Series 2, Donna finally reunites with the Doctor. Donna has been fitted with a metacrisis-cancelling device by the Woman; she must never take it off. Donna does not care much for the Doctor's latest face.
 * The final episodes of Series 2 of The Doctor confirm that Jack Harkness is indeed the Face of Boe; a run-in with the Headless Monks sees Jack get beheaded. Jack's head goes on to become the Face.
 * River Song is saved by the Doctor in her final moments at the Library to help Donna Noble before the events of Series 1 of The Doctor (this is done in a similar fashion to what was done with Clara in S9E12 of Doctor Who). At the end of Series 2 of The Doctor, River goes back to face her fate.
 * At this point, both Jack and River will have left the series. This leaves Donna Noble alone and prepped for a solo adventure that leads to her encounter with the Woman and eventual reunion with the Doctor in Series 2's final episodes.

Archive III

 * New episodes for Series 2!
 * Clash of the Titans - Possibly a two-part story. Donna Noble and River Song must team up with Missy to stop Davros and his armies from unleashing a terrible weapon upon the universe.
 * This episode reveals the origins of the Time Lords and Daleks; the Doctor's true nature as a half-human is also explored.
 * At the end of this episode, River returns to the Library to face her fate.
 * Twelfth Night - Series finale. Donna Noble reunites at long last with the Doctor, who is now in his twelfth incarnation. However, tragedy looms for Donna, and not even the metacrisis-cancelling device given to her by the Woman can save her…
 * There will be at least two episodes in Series 1 of The Doctor that explore the war between the Sontarans and the Rutans.
 * The episode of Series 2 in which Jack Harkness leaves features a battle against the Silence (the episode could possibly be titled Silent Night), hence a run-in with the Headless Monks that leaves him decapitated and able to become the Face of Boe.
 * Perhaps I'll retool my ideas for Doctor Who to fit within the universe of The Doctor…

 * We can explore the Paternoster Gang's founding in mini-sodes or flashbacks.
 * Maybe we could do minisode teasers that depict things like the Doctor saving Vastra from her vengeful ways, the meeting between Jenny and Vastra, et cetera. Then the actual series would take place after A Good Man Goes To War, onwards.
 * Series 1 shows the Paternoster Gang's early days and their eventual tightening into an unbeatable team as a dangerous threat only they can defeat makes itself apparent.
 * Series 2 shows the group's missions and investigations as another dangerous threat only they can defeat makes itself apparent.
 * A note about Paternoster Row: Episodes need to be balanced between Earth and other worlds; Victorian London is the main setting, and episodes should possibly have a Sherlock-y feel due to Madame Vastra's role as a detective.
 * The premise of the show should be the investigation of murders, thief and alien activity, et cetera. My one concern is that the continuous setting of Victorian London and/or Earth in general would get boring pretty quickly (though the Sherlock-type plot could get around that). I think I want to leave the characters alone in this series; Vastra is the main protagonist, Jenny is the human familiarity audiences connect to, and Strax is the comic relief.
