"The Laws of Time are mine! and they will obey me!"

Just watched #TheWatersOfMars again. It had been a while! The episode itself isn't that special, but the ending is quite intriguing with the #TimeLordVictorious bits. Just imagine if #AnthonyHead's character of headmaster #MrFinch had offered #TheDoctor the choice presented by him at the end of #SchoolReunion, around the time of this episode instead. I think The Time Lord Victorious might've actually taken him up on that offer!

I really ought to try to listen to the #BigFinish #DoctorWho audio books surrounding Time Lord Victorious...

Now imagine if #MrFinch aka #BrotherLassar (so wonderfully portrayed by Sir #AnthonyHead) had made the #SkasisParadigm proposal to #TheDoctor later during his run, when he was travelling alone again, such as just before he faced the consequences of him acting as #TimeLordVictorious...
I'm quite sure he'd taking him up on his offer...

I think I would have liked to see a couple of episode with an alternate timeline where he was made that offer without his current and former ¹ companions to remind him of what's important to him.

¹ (it was so lovely to see #SarahJaneSmith again... Reminds me that I should still watch her spin-off series some day...)
