"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...
Book 31 of 2023, and a conclusions to a two book series: Doctor Who: Time Lord Victorious: All Flesh is Grass by Una McCormack

GALLIFREY STANDS.
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...)

#DoctorWho asks questions about how a civilisation rationalises its own history of conquest and looks at the failures of colonial archivism in @[email protected]'s 'The Enemy of My Enemy'.
Also, the Daleks are pretty interesting in this too.

The first #TimeLordVictorious novel is out, and this #DoctorWho story properly starts.
How does this fit into Waters of Mars? Do you need to have read ALL the other stuff? How cool is Brian the Ood?
Only one of these questions is answered in my review: http://eight7eight2.com/doctor-who-tlv-the-knight-the-fool-and-the-dead-review/
So, since I have time on my hands, I have given myself the project of writing something about each bit of #DoctorWho's big trans-media project #TimeLordVictorious.
Here's my review of the first part of DWM's Ninth Doctor comic:
“I look at the first part of #DoctorWho Magazine's #TimeLordVictorious offering, and consider the changing face of the Ninth Doctor's era and the (unintended?) impact of the Thirteenth Doctor's run so far on this story. Also, where's my TLV chocolate? https://t.co/ogk6X5GT5K”
