Laughter is the best medicine...

[thisbluespirit]

Hey, it's about time for another discussion of ideas and so on.

I thought about comedy - comedy, crack!fic, gentle humour, dark satire, irony and anything else designed to tickle your funny bone. And proper comedy can be the hardest thing of all to pull off at times. And we all need things to make us laugh every now and then.

It's not as if the show hasn't been there itself more than once *starts humming along to the Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon* ("Let's hope the piano knows it!")

So, & coincidentally, following on thematically from the last post, what humorous stories would you like to see/write, which Doctors, and are there any things that should really be avoided (you know, if you want to show your face in public again)?


And, just for starters, some particularly cracky scenarios the Random Pairing Generator threw at me:

Omega / Rose Tyler / insanity
The Master (Roberts) / Pete Tyler / role reversal
The Meddling Monk / Sara Kingdom / cricket
Fitz Kreiner / Henry Gordon Jago / payback
The Celestial Toymaker / Reinette Poisson / past relationships
Sabalom Glitz / Maxil / years
Clyde Langer / Jamie McCrimmon / accidental kidnapping

The mind boggles... Especially over Fitz and Henry Gordon Jago in some sort of revenge sccenario.


So, go on, what DW fic would you love to see to make you smile? (And what's life without a smile? Or a cliche... Sorry.)

Yes, that is a thought someone should do something with. They could hang out with the Two Ronnies or something.

Given that Ronnie Barker has played an Oliver Hardy impersonator (with Roy Castle as his Stan Laurel) there's probably some kind of Blinovitch Limitation Effect that would kick in.

And of course Roy Castle has (or, at least, a character played by Roy Castle has) an argument for being allowed into the Round, too.
