Doctor Who: 12 Qualities To Make The 12th Doctor Awesome

1. Bring In The New

Peter Capaldi Dw Live As much as we all love the past references and nostalgia that bringing back old enemies and companions has to offer (we€™ll be feasting on plenty with the 50th), the main thing I want with the Twelfth Doctor is the new. The Daleks will obviously return, as they should, and the Master is now overdue another crack at world domination, but seeing Twelve encounter brand new civilisations and aliens, touching down on a planet and having no idea what€™s going on, and then having to work out what the heck€™s going on, will definitely be exciting and cement this Doctor as a true intergalactic time- travelling hero. There are rumours of Draconians returning (a Jon Pertwee-era foe), and that€™s fine, but Doctor Who thrives on change, and with a new Doctor there€™s an opportunity to implement that change. The Paternoster gang of Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax are also returning, but I like them, so that€™s fine. But hopefully these are around to seamlessly bridge the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctor€™s eras together, yet as we get further into Capaldi€™s (possibly with a new show runner after series 8?) we€™ll be seeing some new threats, and some new monsters to become as iconic as the Daleks and th Cybermen, to terrorise the Doctor and his companions for the next fifty years.

Steven feels like a sociopath writing a bio about himself in third person, but it feels kind of nice, and he's sure he'll get used to it.
