    What If... The Ponds Stayed For Series 7? All of series 7 that is, not just 5 short-lived episodes in 7a... how would Clara factor into this new version of events? Would the Doctor still get a new TARDIS interior? Would the silence arc be given more weight leading up to Time of the Doctor and 11's regeneration? I dive into this interesting What if? Doctor Who scenario!

      Personally, I think the Ponds should've left after S6... then have S7 be companionless, helping the inner darkness festier.... then bring in Clara for S8...
      Maybe have a semi-companion who becomes the 'Impossible Girl' but in fact, they're a figment created by the Great Intelligence to lure 11 out... Obviously, the impossible girl wouldn't have travelled with him, just showing up at weird locations without any idea about the previous encounters.
      Also yes!!! River song video please

    Brian would work in rings of akhatan, we never meet Rory’s mother , could establish her as dead like Clara’s was and have Rory take Clara’s role with the leaf and Amy can take on the role of comforting the queen like Clara did. This would establish a past for Brian expanding his character.

    Tardis Rebuild: They had little choice on that. Between 7A and 7B, they changed studios - like to the other side of Cardiff or something - and everything had to be rebuilt. So, just rebuild what has already appeared in two and a half seasons? Or build something totally new, which they intended to do soon anyhow.

    • @mickys8065
      @mickys8065 Месяц назад

      and I think they needed the 7A TARDIS during filming, during the move. So either delay using the TARDIS in 7B, or build a new one, which would mean no conflicts.
      Especially when the glass sculpture in the time rotor was shattered during the move, which was one of the most expensive parts of that tardis.

    I like the new introduction you came up with for Clara! I would’ve said to just introduce her in Deep Breath so she can be the Victorian version of the character like everything says she should have been anyway, but having the Doctor know her as a child on Trenzalore and her know the Doctor as an old man would really cement the “duty of care” relationship between them!

      1- It matters that Brian has to play off 11 and the Ponds within two comedy episodes and not characters Chibnall originated within serious episodes
      2 - I imagine the process is something like this though.
      Showrunner: The main storyline this year is about the Ponds leaving, write me a lighthearted episode about their strained relationship.
      Staff Writer: I’d rather be retconning regeneration lore, but I’ll do what the boss says.

    Tbf that’s been my one issue with Clara in the 50th. Her line to 11 “what you’ve always done be a doctor” feels like it would’ve hit way more if a classic companion said that. I can get more behind Mel’s line about every incarnation being fantastic in the 60th by comparison because she at least knew a couple of Doctors prior the anniversary.

    I always thought the Ponds should have come back for real in Time of the Doctor, being pulled through the crack in time, for 11's last adventure. There's also no way River or Captain Jack would leave the Doctor alone on a planet under siege.

      especially when it's apparently believable that River is buried on Trenzalore. Jack I can see as struggling, given he's either already the Face of Boe, or stuck on earth.

    To me this would have made season 7 a lot better. Even though 7a had its problems I still enjoyed it mostly because of how invested I already was in this tardis trio. It’s why despite the ending I really really enjoy the power of three. Because I love their dynamic together.
    While Clara with 12 was great she felt very meh and bland for me in 7b (just like that season as a whole). So even if the writing didn’t improve a ton for that season I would have at least enjoyed it more with characters I already had grown to really like.

  • @unorthodoxbox

    My idea for a series 7 arc that keeps Clara's impossible girl storyline while also adding to the Silence and Trenzalore. Clara splinters are a creation of the Timelords as a means to lure to the Doctor to Trenzalore. The Doctor knows his death is there so he avoids that place as much as possible. The Prime Clara would be from Trenzalore, a young woman intrigued by the Doctor and who disiked her home even before the seige occured, it's a boring place. So the want to adventure is there.
    The Timelords used her and spintered her to make sure the Doctor would come to Trenzalore plus make sure he didn't die to the Silence along the way who during this series would've gotten more desperate and foolish with their plans. Sometimes they would've succeeded if a Clara splinter hadn't stopped them.
    While adding to it, I like the idea that the Doctor had Amy and Rory return home similar to what happened to Rose, he can't risk them getting hurt on Trenzalore. I like the idea the two held out hope for the Doctor's return but got on with thier lives in the end. When the Doctor did return it would be a situation where they're older, they've adopted and settled down fully. They're happy their friend is alive and survived Trenzalore but still gets a smack for sending them away like that no matter what face they have.

In this, The Doctor goes through series 2 and a couple of episodes of series 3. If this were the show, I would move those couple of episodes to the end of series 2. The Doctor would regenerate in "Daleks In Manhattan". Romana would be there investigating some alerts that there is dalekanium there. It would show real growth for the Doctor telling Romana what he did and why he did it. He would then regenerate after a Dalek ray would hit him.

    I never considered the whole “Amy would recognize the 10th Doctor costume” bit. But for me, Clara was still the perfect companion to have around in the 50th Special because of the Impossible Girl thing … which the show just dropped. Nothing was done dramatically with the fact that while Clara was a relatively new character, she was given a unique place in DW lore as a human uniquely placed to understand its history and the concept of regeneration as she too is not the only version of herself. If Amy & Rory are there … I guess we get to see them react to the Time War which was less of a big thing in their time on the show. But for the most part, inserting Amy & Rory into most Series 7B plots would have dramatically improved them from a chemistry perspective. Even though I think there is a strong contingent of viewers who are against any companion being on the show for more than two years. (I’m not one of those people. DW thrives on change, but there is also dramatic potential in not immediately writing out all your characters and letting relationships build.)

    I always loved the scene where 11 is about to push the button in Day of the Doctor. But now I'm thinking about how much better this scene would have worked if it was Amy was the one that prevented him from pushing it, rather than Clara. Seems like such wasted potential.

    I think that 11 did work with Clara, just not as well as with the Ponds and it also felt like we should've had more with them before they left.

    Great analysis! The only problem I have with it is that it isn't canon. I'd love to see your ake on River Song, too.

    The TARDIS interior changing wasn’t decided due to losing the Ponds in real life, they changed studios so they had to build a new set due to it being too hard to move the old set.

    that is an amazing idea.
    Name of the doctor: instead of Clara getting knocked out and inducted into the dream state, it begins with Amy already in the dream talking to the Victorian gang. Then Rory gets added and there is something wrong, he is old. Amy realizes they are dreaming and she is old too. She had just reverted to a younger state in the dream to fake out the audience. Once you realize that they are older, seeing River's ghost brings on new meaning to them. They saw her last week at Brian's funeral but she was a younger version who hadn't even been arrested for the doctor's murder yet. Now they keep asking why she can't visit them in person and she just begs them not to blame the doctor.
    Rest of the event's play out normally with Amy and Rory jumping into the doctor's time stream to save him. Instead of getting split up like Clara, they just get sent back a hundred years before the doctor's death on Trensalor.
    Then "Day of the doctor" happens with a younger version of Amy and Rory. At the end he tells them to take some time with their family and friends because he knows what will happen to them.
    Finally he goes to Trensalor but arrives way to early. By the time Rory and Amy arrive, he is already old too. They contemplate running away but as they are all old now, they decide to live out the rest of their lives there. Of course Rory and Amy die before he does. A young Clara reveals she will one day grow up to crash on the dalek asylum and get converted into a dalek. Not wanting that for her, he decides to change her fate and take her with him, giving him a reason to accept a new regeneration cycle instead of dying as he planned.

    So an idea for what the other special in 2013 could be, is maybe it could be Angels Take Manhattan. Now it would have to be in between Day of The Doctor and Time of the Doctor, because I still want them in DOTD, so it would come out sometime in that 4 and a half week gap. And the reason I want it still is because I really really like that episode, it’s one of my favorites, and even tho it’s super sad and they don’t deserve it, I think it’s a great ending and still would work. And then after they are sent to the past, there would be the epilogue showing Brian and stuff (P.S. but live action). And then the next episode would be Time of the Doctor, and River would fill his companion role here basically, and is trying to help him through his grief, and eventually the Doctor grows old on Trenselore (not with River tho, save that for Husbands of RS, just have her pop in and out), and so over time he accepts the loss by the end, in time for 12 to not dwell on it. And I do really like your idea about Clara, that he meets her as a native to trensalore. And yeah I think that would all be great (imo), and the episode that would replace Angels in the series would probably be a Silence / Madame Kovarian centered episode, but maybe having the order changed. Great video man!

  • @veggiet2009
    @veggiet2009 5 месяцев назад

    I really like the idea of madam kovarian being the main antagonist... In the name of the Doctor the silence can take the place of the whispermen (is that what they were called, really forgettable) except maybe this time these silence have different motives, answering the question what if the silence weren't just altering history but actively persecuting the doctor

    With so much extra setup throughout Series 5 & 6, the payoffs should have been HUGE in Series 7, and with lots of room for them to breathe, too! That's what good setup affords you. But instead, every single payoff arrives in The Time of the Doctor like a little afterthought.
    It's funny, I can see how the production team thought this would all work on paper. Amy and Rory's exit is _great,_ so introducing a new companion shouldn't be a problem, theoretically. But it turned out that writing them an exit -- however good -- _right_ before all the most important moments of Eleven's tenure completely undercut those moments, and at the last minute too. I completely agree that having the Ponds there throughout -- and more importantly: simply not introducing a shiny new Impossible-Girl-style mystery box -- would have kept the focus on the actual storylines we were expected to follow, and anticipating closure for.
    And what's worse: the terrible first impression that Impossible-Girl-Clara made in Series 7 then hampered Capaldi's seasons, and whilst I love them, the show arguably didn't recover its popularity until last year.

    I loved this video, I did feel like series was a bit strange, I still to this day haven't seen 'Angels Take Manhattan' because I hold too much love for the Ponds in my heart, and Brian wasn't in too many episodes, he could have been there more, Amy recognising Ten's outfit as the Raggedy Doctor's outfit would have been nice, and in my mind, the Brian and his Grandson scene is in my head canon, Clara could have been teased, like maybe Mickey in series 2, she'd be in a few episodes, but not too many, so when we see her again, she's not too strange, I always preffered Victorian Clara to Prime Clara, plus River being River, it would make sense if she popped up more

  • @nah6024
    @nah6024 Месяц назад

    I'd actually prefer it if River stayed as her ghost version in the Name of the Doctor. Think how much harder it would hit for Amy and Rory to find out about her death. To see a gravestone with her name on it. To grapple with the idea that this woman who seems larger than life is still mortal. And to confront the fact that the Doctor knew this all along.
    And then have them meet the younger living version of their daughter again in one of the following specials and face the exact same dilemma the Doctor does whenever he spends time with his wife.

    I absolutely love this video, everything ive been thinking for years, it makes so much sense this way. One thing i would say is change the majority of 7b episodes . Maybe the husbands of River song as an episode in that. I could see Amy and Rory opening the tower door saying it wasnt locked among other things. I like your nightmare in silver idea with craig and teenage Alfie. I would probably have name, day and time of the doctor as a three parter trilogy finale. Keep Clara as a native of trenzalor and 11 being scottish in honor of amy in his next incarnation. As well as a new tardis in deep breath. I would have if not all 13 episodes in 2012 then 8 and a xmas special in 2012 then 5 plus day and time in 2013

  • @aqueen04

    I agree, 7b just didn't fit well with everything that came before and felt very tacked on. I love the idea of the whole of Series 7 being devoted to rounding out the Ponds era. One thing that I found particularly interesting was Amy and Rory's marital troubles AOTD. It felt very rushed to me that they were on the verge of divorce only to get back together at the end and everything's fine. It would have been a great subplot throughout the series showing them rebuilding their marriage on equal ground, knowing that they won't have anymore children, and accepting that and each other as they are. That rebuilding of their marriage can culminate in NOTD. In canon, we see the TARDIS come back multiple times for Clara so she can visit Eleven on Trenzalore, but avoid growing old there. Perhaps with the Ponds it starts out that way, where they keep getting dropped off at home and going back to visit, but then they mutually CHOOSE to go to Trenzalore to stay, knowing that they'll never be able to come back, that they'll live out their lives there. The Doctor will eventually stand over their graves (keeping that prediction from TPOT intact), but in a much more natural way. It's sad, but not the complete tragedy that it was in TATM. They lived a long life, defended Christmas and Trenzalore and did a hell of a lot of good. Clara can, as you said, be a Trenzalore native that they take under their wing at some point, and she sticks with the Doctor, and is there for his eventual regeneration into Twelve. (Of course, this would make Clara River's adopted baby sister, which is a whole different bucket of interesting lol.)
    I also love the idea of the Ponds being in DOTD. Their presence would in particular be a ray of hope for Ten, who was in his post-JE downward spiral. He'd lost Donna and Rose for good, Martha, Mickey, Sarah Jane, and Jack were all busy living their own lives on Earth (well, Jack's life was in the process of imploding since it's Torchwood, but you get the idea), and he was going a bit bonkers b/c of his own loneliness and arrogance. Seeing his next self happily matched with the Ponds would be a light at the end of the tunnel for him. Just as The Moment chose Rose's form for the War Doctor as a promise, a way of showing him that the sun will shine for him again, that he'd one day travel the universe with a Companion again, the presence of the Ponds would be the same beacon for Ten. Having them be present would have been a hell of a lot more meaningful than Clara, who was more of a plot device in 7b than she was an actual character.
    Absolutely loved this video! Thanks for sharing! :)

    I think Death in Heaven could have been a really good final episode for them. The stakes would have been much higher with Rory than Danny, as the audience is much more invested in the relationship. Could have ended with them together in the cloud, maybe combined with River's

    I do love all of these changes except for Clara growing up on Trenzalore. Something about it just doesn’t seem right to me. (There is something to be said about having a companion that’s not from Earth for a change, but I just don’t think it works for Clara)
    I also did like the Clara Oswin reveal in Asylum of the Daleks and wish there’d be some narrative device to explain that while having a different Clara to be a companion to 12
