Four-era Discussion Post

[thisbluespirit]

Looking at the masterlist of fics so far, I can see that only one Doctor hasn't had any fic written for him via this comm (well, other than a couple of splendiferous multi-era fics) - and would you believe it's the Old Skool favourite, Four?

So, what Fourth Doctor, or Four-era, stories would you like to see? Is there just not enough Leela fic in the world (I'd say not) or you can't get enough Four/Romana (both of the splendid chapesses, of course), you'd like to see a little more Hinchcliffe horror gen fic, Harry, Sarah and the Doctor adventuring forever, or...?


In the now-traditional manner of these discussion posts I went to consult the oracle of the Random Pairing Generator, and came up with a selection of Fourth-Doctor flavoured prompts:

TEAM FOUR-SARAH-HARRY FOREVER.

Oh, absolutely. :-)

Also, I have no idea what Thomas Jefferson is doing in there. It may be from something I've missed somewhere, in TW or SJA, or a random old comic. But I think relatively recently, yes.

It's probably referring to the throwaway mention of Jefferson (and Adams and Hamilton) in The Impossible Astronaut.

Then why haven't we got Cleopatra and Madame Curie in there?

Or the surviving cast of Robots of Death and Adam Colby. And Sil.

... I should probably make some suggestions or something, :lol:

As you say, I think they aren't there because no-one asked for them. (Amusingly, they've only got Jefferson and Adams in the list, not Hamilton).

And I've checked: they were added since 18 April last year, along with a handful of Series 6 and Torchwood: Miracle Day characters.
