You did a super job wrapping things up! And I'm not just saying that because I have to!
Lol that Matt Smith still looks exactly like Matt Smith

Does the app really decide to take someone clearly in his late fifties and make him look like a woman twenty years younger? I’m not sure who to be offended for first. It’s offensive enough when casting directors do it.

In other news, I’ve been watching a lot of Columbo lately and Jack Cassidy would have made a stellar Master for an alt-history American Doctor Who program.

Nine looks like Nadya from What We Do in the Shadows.

And 13 looks like another Hemsworth brother (not Larry).

I remember seeing it in DWM, and the very small article they wrote about it at the time dripped with ‘yeah, no, that’s not a thing’ energy.

There was a pretty interesting feature about David Burton in the Nothing at the End of the Lane fanzine:

Wasn’t he also brought up in one of those Doctor Forever featurettes on the last few DVDs?

I’m now so curious! There must be something existing of 2 episodes’ worth of filming (if it ever actually happened) I can’t believe there’s not a single photo or frame of video remaining anywhere. Filming requires whole cast and crew. It’s pretty difficult to keep something like that completely secret.

All the evidence seems to point to him having made it up for clout. Which is really funny, and a little sad. I mean, he could be vindicated yet! But it doesn't look likely.

Extremely my poo poo

I 100% guarantee that if really pressed on this he'd take a journalist out to a secret Doctor Who cast/crew reunion, show up with a gigantic dufflebag, get the journalist to drive him and the dufflebag out to some woods in the middle of nowhere on the premise that the reunion is out in these woods, then make the journalist wait in the car while he goes into the woods with the dufflebag to get permission from the various Bakers and Davisons and everyone else who is having jolly fun in the woods to bring a journalist out to the private party, and then to come back 3h later with a dufflebag-sized trophy that says "Best Doctor Ever" but no dufflebag, and offering regrets from all of the other Doctors who were uncomfortable having an uninvited journalist at the private party.

I also love that this appears to have been a scam to get a free really lovely car. It's so much better than if he'd gotten a BMW or even a Volkswagen.

I, I was originally shot as the doctor before chris eccelson




this may come as a shock to many of you, but I'm afraid it's true. I have family working at a major video game company who can confirm.
