This topic might have a better name.

List of unmade stories, as that title is less ambiguous regarding the distinction between "unproduced", "unsold" etc. See its wide adoption on Wikipedia. Many of the stories featured on this page were produced, but were not released.

Talk about it here.

The following is a list of unproduced stories from the world of Doctor Who. This list includes television serials and spin-offs, audio productions, comic books, novels, and short stories. These stories were all considered or planned for production yet not officially released. Some of the most common reasons include that the script was not delivered on time, the production was disrupted, or the story was rejected in favour of another pitch.

  19. That was the idea. Gabby became a companion of the Twelfth Doctor, while Cindy and Cleo continued travelling with the Tenth. Noob went on to become an adventurer in his own right, inspired by Ten. Could still happen..
  20. I have no further info on this! 🙃 All I can tell you is that four scripts featuring a crossover with the 10th and 12th Doctors were written in 2018 for the wonderful @giorgiasposito to draw and it continued Gabby, Cindy, Noobis and Cleo’s arcs. It’s a “missing” #DoctorWho story!
