      @TBowenMedia that's not the same doctor in yourthumbnail. That's a descendant of the timeless child. 2 totally different characters in different universe's. The new lore in the Jodie Whittaker established that. Now we just saw a season (#'rd 1) air. It's not a continuation. It's a different story.
      I really hoped and was rooting for Jodie's turn at the helm to be a good one besides fingers I had everything crossed, hoping for it. They added a family again and it was to busy to care about anybody who was part of the new companion family, plus it was just a bit lame. Nothing was new. No new villains. The doctor was written in a fevered spasm of a 14 yr old. But the retcons to the lore and origin was absolutely mind bottling. As in it felt like someone jammed a bottle inro ur head and twisted. Why was that necessary.
      You have a devoted multi generational fan base that researchers it like it was a scripture that have zero issues with race sexual orientation religion or more likely lack there of. Rewrite it and blankly label the fans as the things the doctor taught us to stand against.
      They're 2 different shows. I'm sorry but I'm not gonna recognize a sloppy copy and paste. Especially when it recognizes itself as season 1. The cast even refers to it that way. They even discounted Jodie's run? Come on now.
      I wish no one any hate or ill will, harsh feelings. Unfortunately the Doctor Who we knew and loved ended a few years back. This ain't it.

    I do think its more poignant if the Doctor never brings up his family simply because its too painful to remember them. I've been in situations where I've wanted to run away from home and never look back but knew if I did so I would never forgive myself because my family NEED me. I can only imagine what that would feel like for a grandfather, someone who is supposed to be there for his children and grand-children who instead ran away and never looked back.
    Perhaps the Doctor was never really meant to be a father or grandfather. Due to Gallifrey's strict social order, perhaps he was coerced into it, because it was expected of an educated Timelord to have a wife and kids and a house and all that. He simply wasn't built to be a family man and eventually that realisation ate at him until he had to leave. He honestly believed he wasn't good enough to be the person they needed him to be.
    It was only after leaving Susan, meeting new people and losing them that he realised what having a family and caring about people actually meant. It's more tragic if by the time he realised he could be a good father and husband, he lost them all anyway to the Time War and the Timelord genocide.
    That's why he never talks about it, because with every new person he meets and the more his family of companions grows, the more the magnitude of what he lost in the first place becomes more apparent.

    One of the issues I have with this series is how contradictory it was about the Doctor being a parent - in Boom (written by Moffat who clearly understands the history), the Doctor blatantly states he's a father yet by the finale, he pretty much tells Kate he has a granddaughter but no children yet - something that makes even less sense because it's his own POV & how Russell has previously acknowledged the Doctor knew his children

    Another question . . . Now that the Doctor has 'Bought Death to Death' by destroying Sutekh in the Time Vortex and basically restored Life to all parts of his timeline and the universe, has he undone the after effects of The Flux?
    Has it restored life to everyone and everything that died since Sutekh latched onto the TARDIS . . . Or will it more likely be written as "No, only everything that died due to the effects of the multiple Susan Triads' 'Death Dust' at the time"?

    I can imagine him saying stuff to deflect conversation and being forced to face truths, also maybe sometimes to simplify things, so not quite a lie, just a smudge of the truth to keep things sounding straight forward and not complicated, I know I do this in my life, not the lying bit, but the smudging to keep things simple and deflect further questions, it's a coping mechanism.

    A personal theory suggests that the Doctor had lost one of his children as a result of the Great Time War. My theory centers that the child was a member of the military. Like he was one of the Doctor's sons. The son sacrifice his own life to save his father. Simply because he was a very important person. Since a lot of parents don't want to see any of their children before them, the Doctor was heart broken. The Doctor had recover from his son's death. Yet how his son died haunted the Doctor. During the Battle of Arcadia, the Doctor had flipped because he was the witness the deaths of children. Than the Doctor had end the war even at the cost of destroying Gallifrey.
    The son's death can be seen that the Doctor didn't lose his entire family but only a few members. By the time of the present season started, the Doctor assumes that he is the last of his kind. Oddly the viewers know that the Doctor is not the last of his kind because of Jennifer. and Susan are still alive.

      @@aisleelovegreenwood6448 aww thank you.

Took quite a few gos to get it just right. Glad you enjoyed the video and I agree, it’s nice the comics and audios decided to continue Jenny’s story.
