But it would not remain so for long. MASTER Your twelfth and final incarnation… and may I say you do not improve with age1. By the intermediate draft represented by the novelisation2 this has become: ‘The Valeyard, Doctor, is your penultimate reincarnation… Somewhere between your twelfth and thirteenth regeneration… and I may I say, you do not improve with age..!’3 The shooting script has: 1 While Robert Holmes had introduced the idea of a Time Lord being limited to 12 regenerations, (and thus 13 lives, as the first incarnation of a Time Lord has not yet regenerated) in his script for The Deadly Assassin, his draft conflates incarnations and regenerations in a way that suggests that either he was no longer au fait with how the terminology had come to be used in Doctor Who by the 1980s (e.g.

  • Doctor Who's Feminine Mystique
    Doctor Who’s Feminine Mystique: Examining the Politics of Gender in Doctor Who By Alyssa Franke Professor Sarah Houser, Department of Government, School of Public Affairs Professor Kimberly Cowell-Meyers, Department of Government, School of Public Affairs University Honors in Political Science American University Spring 2014 Abstract In The Feminine Mystique, Betty Friedan examined how fictional stories in women’s magazines helped craft a societal idea of femininity. Inspired by her work and the interplay between popular culture and gender norms, this paper examines the gender politics of Doctor Who and asks whether it subverts traditional gender stereotypes or whether it has a feminine mystique of its own. When Doctor Who returned to our TV screens in 2005, a new generation of women was given a new set of companions to look up to as role models and inspirations. Strong and clever, socially and sexually assertive, these women seemed to reject traditional stereotypical representations of femininity in favor of a new representation of femininity. But for all Doctor Who has done to subvert traditional gender stereotypes and provide a progressive representation of femininity, its story lines occasionally reproduce regressive discourses about the role of women that reinforce traditional gender stereotypes and ideologies about femininity. This paper explores how gender is represented and how norms are constructed through plot lines that punish and reward certain behaviors or choices by examining the narratives of the women Doctor Who’s titular protagonist interacts with. Ultimately, this paper finds that the show has in recent years promoted traits more in line with emphasized femininity, and that the narratives of the female companion’s have promoted and encouraged their return to domestic roles.

  • The Doctor's Personality
    APPENDIX 1: THE DOCTOR’S PERSONALITY Note This preprint is being made available because the first printing of the book this appendix appeared in contained an error in the figures that made them uninterpretable. The following can be interpreted without referring to the book, but for full context it could help to read Chapter 1 in: Rodebaugh, T. L. (2019). The Black Archive #27: The Face of Evil. Obverse Books: Edinburgh, UK. Typical APA-style references are not given, but the original text plus an online search should suffice for the interested reader. Finally, if the reader does not have a passing acquaintance with the television show Doctor Who, none of this will make any sense at all. A Demonstration of the Big Five Personality Traits In Chapter 1 I proposed that we can use the Five Factor Model of personality to understand the Doctor’s personality and analyse to what extent the Doctor is more accurately described as the same person played by different actors, as opposed to a set of entirely different people with different personalities. I therefore collected some data to test the ‘same person’ hypothesis versus the ‘different people’ hypothesis. I should be clear that I did not approach this question entirely as I would if I were conducting scientific research, although I did use some scientific methods. Of the many things I would do differently if I were conducting scientific research, two are worth a special mention. First, I would have pre-registered my hypotheses in some format (most likely on the online Open Science Framework) prior to collecting data or testing my hypotheses.

In 2006 the BBC launched two spin-off series, Torchwood (aimed at an exclusively adult audience) and The Sarah Jane Smith Adventures (for 11–15-year-olds), and what was once regarded as an embarrass- ment to the Corporation now spans the media landscape as a multi-format colossus.

Dissertations (2009 -). Paper 596. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/596 THE WORD BECAME FLESH: AN EXPLORATORY ESSAY ON JESUS’S PARTICULARITY AND NONHUMAN ANIMALS by Andy Alexis-Baker A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2015 ABSTRACT THE WORD BECAME FLESH: AN EXPLORATORY ESSAY ON JESUS’S PARTICULARITY AND NONHUMAN ANIMALS Andy Alexis-Baker Marquette University, 2015 In this exploratory work I argue that Jesus’s particularity as a Jewish, male human is essential for developing Christian theology about nonhuman animals. The Gospel of John says that the Word became “flesh” not that the Word became “human.” By using flesh, John’s Gospel connects the Incarnation to the Jewish notion of all animals. The Gospel almost always uses flesh in a wider sense than meaning human. The Bread of Life discourse makes this explicit when Jesus compares his flesh to “meat,” offending his hearers because they see themselves as above other animals. Other animals are killable and consumable; humans are not. The notion that the Word became flesh has gained prominence in ecotheology, particularly in theologians identifying with deep Incarnation. Unless this notion is connected to Jesus’s particularity, however, there is danger in sacrificing the individual for the whole.

Guinness World Records. Even emotions are different, especially in romance. Three employees of Torchwood are manipulated to open the breach, which breaks down and causes millions of the ghosts to appear worldwide and shift into their true form of the Cybermen from the parallel universe.
