Here’s some pictures of TURN actors behind the scenes cuz why not

I found all of these on Pinterest— they’re so wholesome

Didn't have enough room for it, but the Paternoster Gang, so if you want that, just reply or reblog with that option

Context

U.NI.IT.

the Unified Intelligence Taskforce. The Power of the Doctor set up a new UNIT that recruited some of the Doctor's former companions so it feels like there's fertile ground for a show about who protects modern-day Earth when the Doctor's not available. An episodic structure would fit a UNIT show well, allowing it to shift from espionage thriller, to alien invasion, to weird science, like The X-Files.

An alternative UNIT show could follow in the footsteps of Star Trek: Lower Decks by focusing on a group of lowly officers who are left to pick up the pieces after one of the big exciting Doctor Who alien invasions. The Doctor always leaves a lot of destruction in their wake, so it would provide a lot of opportunities for an affectionate parody of Doctor Who. They could be led by a former UNIT operative like Sergeant Benton (John Levene) who would be an ideal character for an irreverent Doctor Who comedy. There's a lot of potential for UNIT in the new RTD era and hopefully, the Disney+ deal can help to realize it.

For obvious reasons, Jack and Mickey would be recast

Companions united.

Showing everyone who traveled with the Doctor saving the world in their own way. Each episode showing individual companions. From all the alive Classic Companions to all the New Who Companions.

Master Who? Basically The Master's show and showing what happens when The Doctor isn't there to stop The Master's universal conquest. And The Master taking on the worst people imaginable as companions. Could have Michelle Gomez, John Simm, Sascha Dhawan, Derek Jacobi, Geoffrey Beevers, Eric Roberts and Gordon Tipple return as their respective Masters/Missy

Time Lord Academy. The childhood of The Doctor, Master, and Rani during their years at the academy

Eighth Doctor adventures.

Finally giving Eight the run he deserves. Could bring in Charley or Lucie as his companions and lead into Eight in the Time War

Showing Romana and Leela on Gallifrey. During Romana's reign as Time Lady President. Leading to the Time War and how Romana was removed from power and Leela's last stand

if there is one thing I really want to thank Chris Chibnall for it is the companion support group

seriously, if the BBC wants to film a series of short webisodes featuring whichever former companions that are willing to come back,I would happily watch all of them

[pizzacade]

U.N.I.T. got majorly confused when they learned Graham O'Brien had started the support group for The Doctor's companions as seen in The Power of The Doctor. From The Gold Archive book.

Enlarged image of the laptop for better clarity.

Either U.N.I.T. wasn't made aware of Jackie's current status of being stuck in Pete's World, or they somehow gained communication, which explains why she's a (non-)attendee. Anyway, this detail was borrowed from the script where it says this.

This also explains how Mel got to be hired by U.N.I.T. by the time of The Giggle.

[headcanonsandmore]

I feel as if the week of "The Giggle" was just the weirdest time for the rest of the companion support group.

Ryan, Graham and Ace spent the entire week trying to stop the extended Khan family from micromanaging Ryan's marriage to Sonja.

Dan had to stop his parents hitting each other with pans.

Ian and Barbara had to stop their neighbours at the assisted living complex from throwing walking sticks at each other.

Tegan and Nyssa had to cancel their queer book club for that week because a fist-fight almost broke out amongst the other participants.

Jo Grant had to sternly tell her adult grandchildren off for swearing at each other.

Yaz, meanwhile, was on holiday in a small cottage in the peak district with her phone turned off. She had the most relaxed week of her life (and, tbh, she deserved it).

The Doctor and companions

2025 Predictions:

- Rachel Reeves gone by the end of the year.

- The Rest Is Politics interview Kamala Harris and / or Michelle Obama.

- Peter Mandelson / other important Labour Party figure is exposed in a leak slagging off Trump. Outrage.

- Keir Starmer hugs Ed Davey and they play FIFA for charity.

- Lee Anderson pornography scandal.

- George Osborne randomly admits he did a fuck load of cocaine at one point in his political career and no one is surprised.

- Right-wing media starts panicking that Keir Starmer is going to make us join the Euro currency, based on absolutely zero evidence.

- Ian Hislop / other big pundit goes viral slagging off Brigit Phillipson’s education policies and she is forced to fight for her job.

- It is revealed that the Tory sleaze was even worse than originally thought. Boris Johnson makes a Nick Clegg-style apology video and it is immediately remixed into a chart-topping banger.

- Wes Streeting cries publicly. He is also accused of bullying within the Labour Party but that is unrelated.

- Kemi Badenoch has an Ed Miliband bacon sandwich moment.

- Israel win the judge’s vote in Eurovision.

- House of Lords reform becomes The Big Thing. Keir Starmer faces rebellion from his own party as some of them quite like being lords. Lib Dems win more public support through this.

- Sir Sadiq Khan scandal. Labour Party refuse to acknowledge it and bring up Tory COVID parties whenever it’s mentioned.

- Someone makes a Rory Stewart documentary and suggests that he *was* a spy.

- Nigel Farage is videoed saying he doesn’t care about how much the British people are suffering so long as they continue to vote for him. His supporters either defend him and accuse the Left of not being about to take a joke or defect to another far-right party.

- Daisy Cooper dabs / flosses / does a TikTok dance.

- A petition to ban Donald Trump from the UK reaches five million signatures. It fails to change anything, but the Liberal Democrats and the Greens lead a protest of over a million people through the streets of London.

- Trump says he loves the English people but he’s not so keen on the Pakistanis and the Welsh.

- Ed Balls has a massive argument with Rachel Reeves on Good Morning Britain. He is accused by Centrists in the Labour Party of being “a traitor” and “a bad husband”.

- Someone shits themselves in the House of Commons.

- Tony Blair says something about trans people again / is photographed with JK Rowling. In response, Gordon Brown comes out with his unequivocal support for trans people everywhere.

- Ed Miliband paints his nails.

Feel free to add your own predictions !! I’d love to hear what everyone thinks :)

Does anyone have a complete list of every companion who would theoretically be able to attend a Companion Support Group meeting?

I need it for, you know, reasons.

Also Ian and Barbara complaining about how the Doctor never actually explains anything, just is rude to them for not automatically understanding things. I neeeeeed to see Ian and Yaz bitching at the ex companion support group

Doctor Who 13.X3 - The Power of the Doctor

[howlingday]

If you're feeling up for it I Have a Suggestion for the Tragic Backstory™ Au:

Jaune, Exhausted with all the antics of people trying to marry him, or disrupting his families lives, even Nora with her dumb Betting Pool, makes an announcement, finally using the Rumors to his advantage in a way that definitely won't backfire:

His Queen has been fortold; She is one Who's Bones are as tough as steel, Lightning Coursing through her veins as blood, Hair as full and Bright as a Harvest moon, and ... uh ... She Flies like a Comet. A green Comet. Yeah. Nobody like that on Remmnant!

Huh? Penny's Coming to Visit?

I Am Coming Ready!

Jaune: (Takes a deep breath) Okay. Let's do this.

Pyrrha: You're not hyperventilating this time. All those breathing exercises are finally kicking in, huh?

Jaune: I guess. Thanks again for teaching me some tricks to deal with this public speech stuff.

Pyrrha: Of course, Jaune. But, are you sure about this? I mean, you're going to be addressing a lot of people today?

Jaune: I know, but... I have to. This lie has going on for far too long, and I have to tell people the truth.

Ren: She's right, though. At least three of the five Kingdoms will be watching you with keen interest.

Jaune: Three?

Ren: (Nods) Vale, Atlas, and Mistral. There will be hundreds, perhaps even thousands watching your every move, studying, plotting against you to strike at your moment of weakness.

Jaune: ...Did someone bring a brown paper bag?

Nora: I did! (Holds up bag) It's got brownies in it~!

Jaune: ...Can I have one?

Nora: Mmmmmmmmm, no.

Jaune: Can I at least have the bag?

Nora: Mmmmmmmmm-

Ren: It's time, Jaune.

Jaune: But-! But-! My bag!

Nora: Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm-

---------------------------------------------------

Winter: Here's your report on the repairs, General, sir.

Ironwood: Thank you, Schnee. Leave it on my desk.

Winter: How's the press conference?

Ironwood: It's starting. Look at him, stepping out with such stiff motions. Are we certain he has no bionics?

Winter: There's nothing in Atlas records that confirms this, sir. It could be he's just nervous.

Ironwood: This man took on Adam Taurus, a ruthless leader of an international terrorist cell, and killed a Grimm Dragon that's sliced up one of our battleships. There's no way this man is scared of all five Kingdoms watching him.

Winter: ...Wyvern, sir.

Ironwood: Huh?

Winter: The official reports are calling a "Wyvern," sir.

Ironwood: It's a giant scaly monster with wings and probably breathes fire.

Winter: Still called a "Wyvern," sir.

Ironwood: ...It seems we are at an impasse. Perhaps we should call Penny?

Winter: Unfortunately, sir, Penny isn't here.

Ironwood: Ah, that's right. She took leave. Where did she go?

Winter: She left this morning from the bullhead station, sir.

Ironwood: What bullhead did she leave on?

Winter: She didn't, sir.

---------------------------------------------------

Theodore: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That was a good one!

Xanthe: Headmaster, please, I'm begging you. Students are staring. I'm pretty sure he can hear you in Vale.

Theodore: It's funny, though, Rumpole! This kid comes outta nowhere, gets called a king, kills a dragon with a horse and spear, and now he's saying he's not a king to all these people!

Xanthe: It's not that funny.

Theodore: It's hilarious! Oh, I wanna fight him real bad! I've never punched a king before!

Xanthe: Sir, that'll cause an international incident.

Theodore: ...

Xanthe: You'll go to jail.

Theodore: ...

Xanthe: You won't be allowed to fight anymore.

Theodore: ...What about dueling? Would dueling be out of the question?

Xanthe: (Sighs)

---------------------------------------------------

Jaune: No. No. That's not- Look, whatever beef Adam Taurus and I had was over that night we fought, okay?

Reporter: Beef! Ha! That's going in the paper!

Jaune: No! No! It's not like that!

---------------------------------------------------

Lil Miss: (Via scroll) You havin' fun out there, girls?.

Melanie: Yes, Mom.

Lil Miss: Good. I'd hate to pay Roman another visit because he still can't take care of you.

Miltia: He's nothing, Mom.

Lil Miss: Nothin but trouble, you mean.

Roman: (Sighs)

Lil Miss: By the way, girls, just makin sure, but you know about that king nonsense goin on, right?.

Melanie: Yes, Mom.

Lil Miss: You girls stay away from all of that business, you hear me?.

Miltia: Aw, but he's so cute!

Lil Miss: And almost half your age, but that's not the point. The point is that boy king is nothin but trouble. Somethin bad is gonna happen to him, I just know it.

Roman: Yeah? And what do you know?

Lil Miss: Oh, you should know that by now, Roman. I know what I know, and I don't give hand-outs.

---------------------------------------------------

Sienna: More tea?

Kali: No, thank you. (Sips tea) He's doing well, isn't he?

Ghira: They're eating him alive out there.

Sienna: Not even you were this bad in your first public speech, Ghira.

Kali: Really? What was he like?

Sienna: An absolute mess. I actually threw a tomato at him, and he started sniveling!

Ghira: I knew that was you in the crowd!

Sienna: He was going on about "managing our resources" and "not letting what we've gained go to waste"! I felt the mood called for ironic comedy.

Kali: Hahaha! That's so cute!

Ghira: You're both the worst. (Sniffs, Inhales) Promised myself I wouldn't cry.

---------------------------------------------------

Jaune: No! No! I am not "seducing" anyone for a "progeny"! What the hell are you-?!

Jaune: Okay, you wanna know who I'm dating right now, since you're all so into these fairy tales?! Well, if it'll get you people to leave me and my family alone, then I'll tell you!

Jaune: My "queen" is a woman with bones as hard as iron- No, as steel! With a heart that pumps lightning through her veins! And her hair is a red and foreboding as a Blood Moon! And she has eyes that shine with a light that gleams and glimmers with lover's light! Oh, but here's the kicker! She flies! Yeah, that's right, she soars through the air, faster than any comet or shooting star in the sky! In a ball of green fi-

SHOOOOOOO-BOOM!

Jaune: (Coughs, Waves hand) What the...?

Lisa: Get a camera on him!

Cyril: Yes, ma'am!

Jaune: Wait... PENNY?!

Penny: (Blows dust away, Strikes a pose, Smiling, Pink eyes) I am here for my beloved!

Jaune: Ah... Crap-baskets...

Random Doctor Who headcanons

Before she settled down with Ace, Mel Bush had a friends-with-benefits situation with Yasmin Khan for a couple of years in the mid 2020s. Hence Ryan making endless jokes about Yaz liking older women.

Tegan and Nyssa are still unironically crushing on each other despite being married for several years.

Sergeant Benton was the only aroace person at UNIT for a long while and, as a result, was the only one who never got pulled into the organisations complicated polycule situation.

Kate Stewart had a crush on the Thirteenth Doctor that she attempted to be subtle about but didn't really succeed. She was rather disappointed after they regenerated.

Liz Shaw and Jo Grant woke up in bed together on multiple occasions, usually the morning after the UNIT Christmas party.

The Doctor didn't realise Tegan and Nyssa had been in love until their Thirteenth incarnation.

The Ninth Doctor once bumped into Martha Jones and took an immediate shine to her. However, to avoid any potential paradoxes, Martha had to sadly decline his offer to go travelling.

Nyssa of Traken has almost no tolerance towards earth alcohol and has a habit of pushing Tegan up against nearby walls after she'd had a single drink.

Rose Tyler once came across the Fifth Doctor and co. She immediately started flirting with the bewildered cricket man, causing Tegan and Nyssa to be very concerned about Rose's mental state.

Donna Noble never understood the romantic appeal of the Tenth Doctor. She does, however, understand why Yaz fell in love with the Thirteenth Doctor.

Yaz once bumped into Clara Oswald. She found her deeply troubling on an emotional level.

Ryan Sinclair has been flirted with by various male historical figures including Mark Anthony, Alcibiades, Alexander the Great, Freddie Mercury and Oscar Wilde. He has yet to notice, much to Yaz's amusement.

When Ian and Barbara returned to London in 1965, they were shocked to learn that everyone at the school had assumed they had eloped.

Victoria Waterfield briefly worked as a liaison for UNIT and later became close friends with Liz Shaw.

The Eighth Doctor once tried to flirt with a bewildered Sergeant Benton during a timestream cross.
