Return to the incredible days of Ten this Christmas . . .
For the Tenth Doctor, the festive season always brought adventure.
In fact, he’s saved Christmas across space and time more times than we ever knew . . .
Join the Doctor (and Donna and Martha and Rose, and other friends old and new) for incredible tales of daring and danger. From Daleks plotting to save humanity to Sycorax working to exploit it . . . from star-narwhals massing on the moon to a toy factory in space.
Because even in the jolliest of seasons there’s a world or two to save.

March 11th, 2023 - 11:53pmI always enjoyed the short story collections that were required Christmas time reading. Such as Twelve Doctors of Christmas, Time Lord Fairy Tales, Myths and Legends and Tales of Terror.It was a shame to miss last year so will be good to have this one.
I do feel having the stories solely feature ten take some of the fun away as it was always nice to work out which Doctor was in each story.

March 11th, 2023 - 8:24amAll this fuss over the Tennant Doctor’s is just reminding me of when they tried to make the “Dark Dimension” episode for either the 30th or 40th anniversaries.
Starring the 4th Doctor and reducing the 5th, 6th and 7th Doctors to bit parts and finishing by suggesting they never happened, if memory serves correctly.
For the 60th are we suppose to now think Doctor’s 11, 12 and 13 were figments of our imaginations and the 14th Doctor is just a continuation of the 10th Doctor as if he never left.
Will this make the 15th Doctor the new 11th?
Time will tell.

March 11th, 2023 - 12:19pmI’ve just read the novelisation of lost in the dark dimension again last month. It has to said the story really isn’t very good. As a 30th anniversary story (if it had been made) it is a bit insulting to the 3rd, 5th, 6th and especially the 7th doctors. I will be very annoyed if Russell is going down the dismissing the 11th, 12th, 13th and war doctors route. Again it would be very insulting to the writers and actors. I can’t see him doing it but if he did I would have to think about continuing to watch the show. After 48 years watching it would be a hard decision to make. I personally just feel it would be an insult to fans as well. Doctor’s 11, 12 and 13 have their own fan base (Smith is my favourite new who doctor) and to dismiss them feels like it would be a huge mistake. Thinking about it I think I would stop watching. We will have to see.

March 12th, 2023 - 9:15amI have a feeling the other NuWho Doctors will be referenced, we’ll probably get a few references to them, but I’d be surprised if they actually appeared or if the experiences the Doctor went through as them really had any affect on 14ant’s character or personality. They’ll probably reference Donna sorta influencing how 12 looks stuff from the Girl Who Died – maybe Clara’s exit because of the memory wipe stuff, but fully expect those to minor references, offhand comments rather than integral to the story being told, which will be Donna getting her memories back and the Doctor getting over the whole “I don’t want to go” attitude.

March 14th, 2023 - 2:04pmYet again the fan base ready to disown doctor who based on their own fan theory……….. having witnessed the arrival of the 14th doctor and his confusion as to being in an old face (set up in the 50th), not sure how we make the leap to dreams and the dark dimension.
Here’s my idea for you (based on nothing seen or read online), PERHAPS the toymaker is using Donna Noble for a TBC reason and in an attempt to keep the doctor away, he manipulates the regeneration into a face that cannot interfere with Donna as this would kill her, creating an impossible scernio that requires alot of laws of time being broken? A silly monster from the 70s as a nice distraction whilst the toymaker moves his plans on.
This book has a story for both 10 and 14 that is a little treat ahead if the 60th.
Sorry people but David Tennant is by many metrics, the top doctor and with RTD trying to shoot doctor who back to the top, why not pull in as many old friends as possible, lighting strikes twice sometimes……

March 14th, 2023 - 5:58pmI know Tennant is playing the 14th doctor and ncuti is 15th but the concerns are still there. Frankly I doubt very much if Davies is heading down the route of dismissing doctor’s 11, 12 and 13, but in all honesty I’m not too excited about Tennant and Davies return. My concern is he will pander to the internet warriors, which seems to link into recasting Tennant. That along with concerns over the Disney deal in regards commercial releases (there are now a very large number of movies and TV shows unavailable to buy, leading to a massive increase in bootlegging) makes me concerned for the future of who.

March 14th, 2023 - 8:16pmInternet warriors have nothing to do with David’s return. It is well documented the journey that lead to his return. RTD explained it fully and how it was born from an idea during lockdown.
He was also VERY clear that the disney deal is a distribution deal for OUTSIDE the UK. Physical media for who Is going nowhere, it will likely follow the Limited edition route similar to big finish, Limited volume pressing which was happening YEARs before RTD and disney got involved. Look at the blu ray collections.
We should be grateful that doctor who’s future is secure and being supported by major companies…….but this was all documented in multiple doctor who magazines over the last 4 months….sigh

March 11th, 2023 - 5:22amThis makes sense, considering 10 is going to be the focus of the specials, but I do hope there’s another anthology of stories featuring all the Doctors alongside this.

March 14th, 2023 - 2:05pmThe 14th doctor is the main doctor of the 60th

April 7th, 2023 - 8:05amAnd 14ant is just 10, but later. Like, they’re the same guy, same mannerisms, same-ish costume, same face – this book does demonstrate that in a way, since it’s a bunch of 10th Doctor stories, advertised as a bunch of 10th Doctor stories, with the 60th era version of the character also included because they’re the same version.

March 11th, 2023 - 12:08amOk this just feels like nostalgia bait in particular.

March 11th, 2023 - 1:50amThis should be a collection of stories from all the doctors. It’s hardly anniversary material with only one doctor.
