3. Lose The Sonic Screwdriver
The Fifth Doctor got by with using a kettle and some string, so why shouldnt the Twelfth Doctor? The sonic screwdriver has become so overused in recent years, Im waiting for the destroy every enemy in the universe setting to be introduced. Capaldi should get by on his wits and talent alone, really showing that this Doctor is resourceful and disgustingly clever. If he wants to unlock a door, this Doctor should kick it down à la Donna Noble. Im not saying get rid of it completely (think of all the wasted promotional images without the sonic being dramatically aimed towards the distance), but keeping it to just opening and locking doors might be a good start.
