Doctor Who stories ... as FRIENDS titles ...

[WhiteCrow]

Rob started this idea off in the talk of wanting Matt leBlanc as the next Doctor.

But I was thinking about the way FRIENDS titles used to always be called "The One With/Where ...".

And this made me think ... you could so totally do that with most Doctor Who stories ... and so I began to retitle some recent stories ...

"The End of the World"
a.k.a. "The One Where The Earth Blows Up"

"The Unquiet Dead"
a.k.a. "The One With Charles Dickens"
a.k.a. "The One With All The Zombies"
a.k.a. "The One With Charles Dickens And The Zombies"

"Aliens of London"
a.k.a. "The One Where Big Ben Gets Hit"
a.k.a. "The One With The Farting Aliens"
a.k.a. "The One With The Space Pig" (also see Daleks in Manhattan)

"The Doctor Dances"
a.k.a. "The One Where The Doctor Dances"
a.k.a. "The One Where Everybody Lives"

Any more?

[Rob McCow]

The best ever 'Friends' style title was not applied to Doctor Who, but to Babylon 5 - War Without End. This became 'The One With Not The One, The One, The One That Was, And The One That Will Be.'

Although Doctor Who could have 'The One With Three', 'The One With Five' and 'The One With Two'.

[SiHart]

And the Big Finish one... The One with the One.

I saw some of Turn Left on BBC 3 today.

If Doctor Who was written like FRIENDS ...

"I like totally died when I fell into the Void, and got trapped in an alternative Dimension, away from the Doctor", said Rose.

"Oh that's nothing," replied Donna, "I SO totally died when the Doctor did his mind-rape voodoo on me to forget I'd save the Galaxy".

"You're lucky. I just totally died when they shaved my head, put the brain of a slug alien inside me and the Timelords recalled the Doctor to Gallifrey" Explained Peri, as she struggled to keep herself decent inside her bikini.

"You're all liars!!! I'm the only one who totally died - when the Doctor decided to save Tegan instead of me, and left me to crash into a prehistoric planet Earth. And he stole my Gold Star too." Moaned the Ghost of Adric. "Bastard!"
