Oh yes. Sure.

Well, romney beat me to it, but I'll post it up here, too.

Auntie says she's bringing the Doctor back. Right, not heard that at least once a year since 1989.

Still, we'll see. I can guarantee, however, that if they do bring back new Doctor Who there will be at least as many people upset as pleased.

I tend to the view that they should keep the TARDIS as is, cherry pick the mythology, start right from the beginning with the Doctor stealing his TARDIS and absconding from Gallifrey and then build it up from there in a more thought out and structured way than the organic development of the original series.

Of course, I'm probably in a minority of one.

A re-imagining!

Yeah, Trek-style. Deep Space Tardis?

Or not.

Well, given that each incarnation can be seen as "The Next Generation", how about Dr Who: The VoyageHome

Except for the Doctor it is the Next Regeneration.

Actually, I agree with you completely.

Sadly, I can't imagine it will actually happen that way. And if it did, just imagine how badly could they screw it up.

actually, you have the only way.

have you kept up with the books?

the Doctor is in his 9th regeneration, he single-handedly _destroyed_ Gallifrey, and he has no memory of his past life before the aforementioned planet-exploding.

the only way it _could_ come back is to ditch either part (the recent BBC books part) of the mythology, or to start all over again.

i have no idea how they can pull themselves out of the creative abyss the concept is in right now.

hmmm... could be interesting, could well be a recipe for disaster.
hate to think what a Modern and contempory Doctor will be like...
