Crossovers ahoy!

[thisbluespirit]

As anyone who knows me, one of my other loves in fanfic is a good crossover. It's the one thing you really can't have in the actual show (because of pesky rl considerations, like copyright, actors now being consideably older / dead etc.) and Doctor Who is built for it. Where other shows have to beat about the bush trying to explain the crossover, or just making it crack!fic to get away with it, all any DW fanficcer has to write is 'The TARDIS lands...' and we're away.

What crossovers would you like to see more of? Or those you'd just love to see? Are there any real crossover no-nos when it comes to Doctor Who? I've always been of the opinion that you can cross it with anything, but maybe there are limits.

What ideas does everyone have?

Ronnie Barker... seemed like a good idea at the time. I was trying to picture someone who'd be very physically different from Peter Davison, and up popped the mental image of Barker in one of those 'spokesman' rôles.

It's a nice image. It just wouldn't have occurred to me. I love the idea of him now. I'm torn as to whether I'd really pick him for Four. There seems to be some strange thing that dictates that Five's Dream lord should be played be Robert Hardy! :lol: (I think I like your idea best...)

I wonder about Fulton McKay for Four's Dream Lord (since legend has it he was a candidate for Four proper...)

I do like the idea of Robert Hardy as a Dream Lord, though.
