Howling:Peter capaldi era story arc: Difference between revisions

Not knowing what is really happening on Gallifrey raises real questions for the Doctor. We have already seen what the rest of the universe thinks of Gallifrey returning. We don't know for sure how Gallifrey has reacted to being on ice. We don't know if they just found that leftover crack or created it, though the finale with the crack in the sky of Trenzalore suggests the latter. Gallifrey apparently needs or wants the help of the Doctor to come back, so providing him with a new set of regenerations is not necessarily a sign of altruism. What has happened to the Master is even more mysterious, because now he knows the truth about the drums. How might that affect his personality? Would he focus his hate on Rasillon? What if the Master took over while Gallifrey was gone? And what if the Doctor refuses to signal Galifrey till he is certain what has happened? He might be faced with a Master who claims to have reformed, and have to figure out if he really has, and what to do about the others. By recasting (or not) the audience could not know (or know) that a character is the Master. Its not certain that the Doctor wouldn't recognize him either way. But being John Simm would make it all the more challenging for the audience to accept he has reformed.[[User:Phil Stone|Phil Stone]] [[User talk:Phil Stone|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 14:23, March 18, 2014 (UTC)
