As a society, we were lucky enough to once again be able to come together for, and discuss, a new series of Doctor Whowith many ideas flying about at each weekly meeting. In a change from our regularly scheduled predictions, we took the time to collect sealed envelopes before, and after, Fugitive of the Judoon. Some were right, some were wrong. Some were serious and some were seriously funny. So what exactly did WhoSoc predict for Series Twelve? Other successes included the prediction that the Doctor would once again square up against the Master towards the end of the series, with one member correctly placing him in the finale itself, while someone else,very Doctor Who: Tides of Time in my opinion, suggested that the reveal of the Timeless Child would be rather anticlimactic. There were also a few near-misses, such as one person predicting the existence of a secret Time Lord Doctor Who: Tides of Time running something behind the scenes, although they presumed the mastermind behind it would be the Timeless Child. Despite her lack of development at this point, Yaz did pretty well Doctor Who: Tides of Time predictions, with speculation ranging from her leaving the show, us not being reminded she is a police officer and that she would not be central to any specific episode — only the latter of which is true. We also asked for some less serious predictions. Of course, the Timeless Child once again made an appearance, with predictions suspecting that it was to be so timeless as to be born in Call the Midwifewhich many argued to be true after Ascension of the Cybermen. Others stared into the untempered schism of lore, predicting that the Rani would return as an old man, or even the Watcher, the latter a projection of Graham this time. Indeed, eighties Doctor Who: Tides of Time was doing pretty well in our predictions, with one member desperately hoping that Doctor Who: Tides of Time last thirty minutes of the finale would be Chris Chibnall finally reaching his ideal potential and remaking The Ultimate Foe part two. Another hangover from Orphan 55 was new society favourite, Benni, who featured a couple of times. Some simply wrote his name down the side of the page, while a more pragmatic member predicted, very accurately, that he shall live on only in our memes. We also took a selection of predictions after Fugitive of the Judoonsome of which ended up scarily close to the mark. The suggestion that Time Lords have been breaking their Doctor Who: Tides of Time laws was an astute, but not particularly difficult, prediction to make, while someone was determined to rock the boat of lore even further, suggesting that the Time Lords are some form of future humans. While it may seem far-fetched, the ending of The Timeless Children does leave open that possibility. Though we may have wished it, Captain Jack was correctly predicted to not make a return this series, while guesses that Rassilon and Borusa would be namedropped were on the money. So, was the Oxford Doctor Who society right this time? Well, ish. Like Like. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account.

It was a story that brought back not just one, but four previous Doctors to battle evil, doubling the previous record held by The Three Doctors. There were old monsters, including Daleks and Cybermen, as well as the debut of, the frankly underappreciated, Raston Warrior Robot. Terrance Dicks, sadly absent from Doctor Who on screen since State of Decaywas back, returning to his old Doctor Who stomping ground — the world of Gallifrey, and the society of Time Lords he had helped to define. Meanwhile, there are the tragic missed opportunities where Waris Hussein and then Douglas Camfield were both unable to direct the special. Despite this, I think The Five Doctors remains a bona fide classic. In an effort to resolve this dilemma, two Oxford fans take turns on the podium as they argue if The Five Doctors is a good introduction to Classic Who. I owe Doctor Who: Tides of Time to The Five Doctors. Without a chance viewing, it is unlikely that I would have fallen down the rabbit hole that is classic era Doctor Whoalong with the various spin-off material that springs from it. I doubt I would have engaged so much in the universe of a television show which, at the time, was something I immediately associated with a yearly series of thirteen episodes, plus a festive special. Some readers may remember the great Doctor Who DVD Filesa partwork magazine series Doctor Who: Tides of Time, along with its print encyclopaedic coverage of Who knowledge, offered subscribers vanilla DVD releases of Classic Doctor Who episodes, along with some Nu Who for good measure. I encountered The Five Doctors through a subscriber bonus release with Issue Four and the rest, thankfully, is a happy history of further Who viewing, sparked by my interest ignited by this story. But what exactly qualifies The Five Doctors, a Who -celebratory anniversary special fromas a good introduction Doctor Who: Tides of Time the wider vortex of twentieth-century Doctor Who? The Five Doctors is a well-realised story which both emphasises the charms of Classic Whowith its idiosyncrasies, plotting, and characterisation, and provides a suitable Doctor Who: Tides of Time point for newcomers, like younger me, to find avenues for further adventures. Yet, as with The Day of the Doctor, this special celebrates not just the then-heritage of the programme but also reaffirms its achievements thus far, as well as its core values. By featuring Rassilon, the Time Lords, and other canonical elements, it may also be tempting to brand the story as playing to a familiar audience, one familiar with the iconography it figuratively and literally transports to feature alongside the then-current Fifth Doctor. The story itself is not particularly lore-affecting, however, in contrast to the recent Timeless Child revelations. The Doctor continues to run from his people, rejecting the offer of the Time Lord presidency, and overall, allows the celebration of the spirit of Doctor Whoof adventure and justice, without bogging itself down in past exploits. How, then, is this apparent? The story has a clear telos: to reach the Dark Tower and uncover who is behind the timescooping Doctor Who: Tides of Time the Doctors, their friends and their foes. As is pointed out in the online BBC Classic Doctor Who episode entry for the serial, there are similarities to Alice in Wonderland which the Fifth Doctor himself references in dialogue with the Master. In showcasing the Third Doctor and Sarah Jane, or the Second Doctor and the Brigadier, for example, the pairings are in service of reaching the Tower, with each having their own obstacles and moments of heroism, Doctor Who: Tides of Time it be gliding to the Tower or fighting off a Yeti in the caves. Each approach is a great, if potentially exaggerated, showcase of the characteristics of former Doctors, allowing for them to mingle with the then- present Fifth Doctor and mirroring the role of the Eleventh Doctor in The Day of the Doctor. With the Third Doctor heroically, and perhaps unnecessarily, rescuing Sarah from the clutches of a rocky slope, the Second Doctor bickering with the Brigadier, and the First Doctor cantankerously contributing with great sass, I can understand why I felt so enticed to discover more about these pairings.

    2019 Gally Academic Track Friday, February 15, 2019 3:00-3:15 KEYNOTE “The Fandom Hierarchy: Women of Color’s Fight For Visibility In Fandom Spaces” Tai Gooden Women of Color (WoC) have been fervent Doctor Who fans for several decades. However, the fandom often reflects societal hierarchies upheld by White privilege that result in ignoring and diminishing WoC’s opinions, contributions, and legitimate concerns about issues in terms of representation. Additionally, WoC and non-binary (NB) people of color’s voices are not centered as often in journalism, podcasting, and media formats nor convention panels as much as their White counterparts. This noticeable disparity has led to many WoC, even those who are deemed “important” in fandom spaces, to encounter racism, sexism, and, depending on the individual, homophobia and transphobia in a place that is supposed to have open availability to everyone. I can attest to this experience as someone who has a somewhat heightened level of visibility in fandom as a pop culture/entertainment writer who extensively covers Doctor Who. This presentation will examine women of color in the Doctor Who fandom in terms of their interactions with non-POC fans and difficulties obtaining opportunities in media, online, and at conventions. The show’s representation of fandom and the necessity for equity versus equality will also be discussed to craft a better understanding of how to tackle this pervasive issue. Other actionable solutions to encourage intersectionality in the fandom will be discussed including privileged people listening to WoC and non- binary people’s concerns/suggestions, respectfully interacting with them online and in person, recognizing and utilizing their privilege to encourage more inclusivity, standing in solidarity with them on critical issues, and lending their support to WoC creatives.

Every now and then, I read comments from Whovians about how the programme is called: "Doctor Who" - and how you shouldn't write the title as: "Dr. Who".

  • Rich's Notes: 1 Chapter 1 the Ten Doctors: a Graphic Novel by Rich
    The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 1 Rich's Notes: The 10th (and current) Doctor goes to The Eye of Orion (the Five Doctors) to reflect after the events of The Runaway Bride. He meets up with his previous incarnation, the 9th Doctor and Rose, here exploring the Eye of Orion sometime between the events of Father’s Day and The Empty Child. The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 2 Rich's Notes: The 9th and 10th Doctors and Rose stumble upon the 7th Doctor and Ace, who we join at some point between Dimensions in Time and The Enemy Within(aka. The Fox Movie) You’ll notice the style of the drawings changing a bit from page to page as I struggle to settle on a realism vs. cartoony feel for this comic. Hopefully it’ll settle soon. And hopefully none of you will give a rat’s bottom. The Ten Doctors: A Graphic Novel by Rich Morris Chapter 1 3 Rich's Notes: The 10th Doctor, in order to keep the peace, attempts to explain the situation to Ace and Rose. Ace, however, has an advantage. She's seen some of the Doctor's previous incarnations in a strange time trap set up by the Rani (The 30th Anniversary special: Dimensions in Time, which blew chunks). The 2nd Doctor arrives, seemingly already understanding the situation, accompanied by Jamie and Zoe. (The 2nd Doctor arrives from some curious timeline not fully explained by the TV series. Presumably his onscreen regeneration was a farce and he was employed by the Time Lords for a time to run missions for them before they finally changed him into the 3rd Doctor.

  • Julia Franco First Year Seminar Science Fiction Tuesday 9:30-10:45
    Julia Franco First Year Seminar Science Fiction Tuesday 9:30-10:45/ Friday 9:30-12:15 Allegories in Time and Space1 On November 23rd 1963, the BBC launched their new TV show ​Doctor Who​. They did not anticipate the cultural phenomenon.what would grow out of their low budget show with cheesy special effects. British children were enchanted by William Hartnal’s Doctor and his companions: Ian, Barbara and Susan, and gleefully scared by the fearsome salt shakers of doom: The Daleks. The stories were anywhere from 4 to 12 parts, each around 25 minutes and were serialized weekly. But lying beneath the light hearted self resolving stories ran deeper elements reflecting attitudes towards history and current events. Deeply rooted in the series was the allegory to World War II. The Daleks take the place of the Nazis and the Time Lords therefore fill the opposing role of the Alliance. At many points, the story reads as if it is a future history of what would have happen if the Nazis had won World War II. This tapped into the subconscious fears of the nation as the war was still fresh in the minds of the parents of Britain. But also tied into the contemporary fears of the Cold War and the Soviet threat. These allegorical elements along with the characters in Doctor Who, such as the Daleks and the Time Lords, that correspond to actual historical events and people make the show what it is today: timeless and timely. The Daleks would not exist if not for one man- Terry Nation.
