Doctor Who: Season 26B

Season 42 would’ve been Stephanie Leonidas’ last season on the show and on top of this it was announced that Paul Cornell would be leaving as well, despite these departures Douglas Henshall decided to stay on for another year as the Eleventh Doctor. Father’s Day By Paul Cornell July 23rd This would be the same as it is in real life, the only difference is that Pete Tyler has been removed and instead we have John Mitchell played by Robson Green other than that it’s all the same. Tooth and Claw By Russell T Davies July 30th Again the same as it is in real-life so I don’t need to discuss it. Crash Course By Rupert Laight August 6th The story sees the Doctor and Joanna landing aboard a peacekeeping vessel being sent to mediate between two warring races, the Akrids and the Rhopalods. The vessel contains members of various races that the Doctor recognises signed the Peace Among Worlds Act, and even knows one of the diplomats, a Raxacoricofallapatorian named Min-Vo-Zuh-Naci-Bit-Seis-Aut-Blath

Season 41 would be the debut season for the new Doctor, Douglas Henshall. This Doctor would be a more beaten incarnation and dealing with grief, basically he’s the ninth Doctor from our own timeline though with elements of the Shalka Doctor. An ongoing arc for this Doctor is him dealing with his loss and learning to be happy again. A new companion was introduced this season: Joanna Mitchell played by Stephanie Leonidas, who is a university student from 2004. Matthew Robinson was no longer head of Drama at BBC Wales so he was replaced by Julie Gardner and Ann Harrison Baxter was replaced by Phil Collinson. This season introduced a new logo, which continued the trend of the previous logo of being quite sleek but looked more interesting than the previous one. With this came a new title sequence, it starts with a shot of Earth, with the TARDIS flying away from it as we follow it fly past the moon, before a blue bubble appears near the moon, reaching the TARDIS, pulling it in, as it becomes

  Series Four of Earth Defence aired from January 5th - 9th February 2004 and would’ve been the last season of the show, nothing notable changed during Series One and Two so there is nothing to discuss. The Days of Our Lives January 5th By Paul Cornell & Russell T Davies This story would’ve focused on the question: What if Humans lost the ability to die? We see people all around the world not dying and Earth Defence investigating what is going on and seeing whether they can bring back death, meanwhile Szydlo tries to form a plan to kill the Earth Defence Agency and we learn his agency (M.I. X) is being defunded. We also see many people saying this is a sign of religion, some believing it to be a blessing and curse, at the end of the story Bernice finds a new element in the human body.  The Eyes of The World January 12th By Paul Abbott This story sees Bernice and the team uncover a terrorist attack which will take place at a worldwide conference where all the world leaders will meet

  This season would be the first season for new showrunner Paul Cornell who’d been script editor ever since season 37, 2003 marked the 40th anniversary for Doctor Who. Because of this, it was decided to fill the 40th season with many throwbacks to the show's past. In early 2003 both Trevor Eve & Tamzin Malleson announced their departure from Doctor Who after Season 40. The casting of the next Doctor would not be announced until a few weeks before Season 40 premiered. To mark the 40th anniversary special, a 90 minute TV Movie was commissioned, which would air on the show's 40th anniversary. The Treacherous Plague  26th July - 2nd August By Paul Cornell This story would see the return of the Daleks, the story would focus on the Doctor and Samantha landing on a research facility in the middle of the solar system until it becomes under attack and the Daleks invade.
