Oh, that's actually amazing. I loved The Day of the Doctor but I also love this, and I love this account of the Time War a lot. People were wondering what good Chibnall's retcon would do, and if it pushed Rusty to release this, well, then it at least did *some* good.

Man that's really good. I like the idea of the Moment basically starting him over regeneration-wise and that he just decides he feels 900 years old. He and Moffat have always been friendly behind the scenes from all I've heard, I wonder if he let Moffat see this and crib the idea of the Moment's UI being a woman

I didn�t realize Rodan (the Time Lord) was someone from The Invasion of Time until after I�d already imagined The Doctor officiating the wedding of Mothra and Rodan (the giant monster) during a lull in the Time War.

Ir's the Time War so this probably also happened.

I had a great dream last night. I dreamed I was watching some special Doctor Who, maybe it was the 60th. Six pops up on the screen, a perfect, and I mean perfect CGI version of 1985 Colin Baker voiced by Colin. Not fake looking, no uncanny valley. Then we get a scene with 1996 McGann, voiced by McGann.

The plot was some sort of time mishmash where the Doctor's timeline was jumbled and different companions were travelling together, sometimes with different Doctors. Captain Jack and a 20 something Peri, voiced by Nicola Bryant (and yes Jack was absolutely flirting with her).

We are getting close to this being possible IRL, and it's exciting!

To be fair, Jack would also be flirting with a 59-year-old Peri.

The dome thing's a Mechanoid. I think what you're calling a spider is actually a Wirrn. The clown is from Greatest Show in the Galaxy. The one between the Silence and the Vashta Nerada suit is the Veil from Heaven Sent. What you thought might be a silurian at the front is actually a Voord, then the three behind the gas mask kid and pig-man are all Ice Warriors including the Empress and maybe an Ice Lord. Next to the pig is a quark from The Dominators. The giant cyberman is the Cyber King from The Next Doctor.

Some others not mentioned are Morbius next to the tree lady and Sharaz Jek between the pirate and the angel. I think the one behind the Sycorax leader is Omega from Arc of Infinity.
