Never lose your temper in the middle of a door sign.
Big Finish is bringing the Ninth Doctor back. Okay, AWESOME. Completely amazing. They literally didn’t need to do anything else but CYBERMEN and THE FREAKIN BRIGADIER like they really didn’t have to pull out all the stops for this but they just did That, didn’t they?
The absolute SMUGNESS on the Brig’s face when he punches the Master 😂 Iconic
JO!!!!! HE’S TALKING ABOUT JO I’M CRYING 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Brigadier: A solid object can’t just dematerialise!
Me: Brigadier. Seriously??!!!?!
THE FREAKIN BRIGADIER
AHHAHHGHHHHHHHHHHHGHHH
Doctor Who writer: Okay we need UNIT in this story, but we can’t get Nicholas Courtney.
Other writer: So what excuse are we going to make for the Brigadier not being there?
Another writer: ...He’s in Geneva?
Okay so The Mega is seriously one of the best Doctor Who stories ever so tell me WHY WAS IT NEVER MADE
#I’m guessing budget#because The Mega would basically be all CGI#and it would require a million different filming locations#but DANG#I think I might have died if that wouldve been an actual serial#big finish#big finish productions#bfa#big finish audio#the mega#the lost stories#doctor who#classic who#dw#third doctor#3rd doctor#jo grant#mike yates#john benton#brigadier lethbridge stewart#katy manning#richard franklin
Okay but guys.
River. Meeting. Three.
Because River would take one look at Three and know it was the Doctor; if not because she’s seen pictures at UNIT or something, then because of his outrageous fashion sense and, of course, Bessie. She would quickly realise Three’s no-nonsense nature and then proceed to make him as uncomfortable as possible by over-the-top flirting as Three insists “Please keep your distance, Madam!” Meanwhile Jo is extremely confused and has no idea what’s going on, while the Brigadier finds it all absolutely hilarious

“Found amongst the personal effects of General Sir Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, this handwritten letter is undated and unsigned. It was one of the few documents that Sir Alastair insisted on taking with him into the nursing home where he spent his last few months.
On his death, it was found lying on the bedside cabinet, as if Sir Alastair had been reading it in the moments before he passed away.”
- from “The Time Lord Letters” by Justin Richards
Okay but THE LOOK OF DISAPPOINTMENT ON THE BRIGADIER'S FACE WHEN YATES POINTS A GUN AT HIM
OH MY GOSH THE FIRST ISSUE OF THE THIRD DOCTOR COMIC. I was literally laughing through the whole thing. It's SO. PERFECT.
