COMING SOON THIS AUGUST: NEW ADVENTURES FOR THE EIGHTH DOCTOR
THE DOCTOR IS BACK... AND IT'S ABOUT TIME.
The Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) is here! Three brand new adventures as the doctor travels the universe, and meeting all the strange, strange things that lie within it.
Three new adventures will be coming out with the Eighth Doctor in August 2016. The stories will be an ensemble of ideas and will contain various fun, sci-fi, historical and scientific elements to it. Basically a story will start off being like a certain particular type of story and then as the story goes on it changes and you think, 'oh it's like this now' It's an experimental format and doing what Doctor Who does best really.
Along the way, The Doctor will meet a new companion on his travels which he will take off into time and space and will join him in throughout the series.
There are some familiar Doctor Who aspects in this series, I am trying to visualise the type of Doctor Who I would like to see on television as well as also interpreting a modern cultural context to it as well, which to do with action figures is going to be a challenge. It will all rely on the writing of the scripts and how well the story is executed.
Scripts for the series are being written as we speak, I am writing them now in collaboration with my writing team and we're basically still brainstorming and trying to find out what ideas work and what don't and sometimes blending small ideas together into one big story, so for example, something that was scrapped for a short story might be revised and blended in with another idea to create one big story. It is all a devine exercise in trial and error.
More information to released on this new Eighth Doctor series at a later date.
Thank You.
