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?

Mind you, I have to say, I'd have a problem with Redwall. ("Okay, we've found a lot of mice and badgers wearing armour, and building a fort... Is that normal?"

Since there aren't any humans around (there aren't, are there?), clearly it's an alien planet where the local intelligent life just happens to resemble Earth animals. Possibly in the same part of the galaxy the Judoon come from.

(Or somewhere near the planet my hypothetical Lion King crossover was set on.)

No, I don't think there are... but there's this sense it could be this whole world that is out of sight of humans. Mind you, it's got its own elaborate mythology and all. I lost track somewhere after about the first seven, which I read when I was a teen, and he was still going with the things last time I looked. (How many times can you write the mice and the Badgers fought the Nasty Weasel/Fox/Ferret and won? 8-o)

LOL, yeah, the last one I read was about number... twelve, I think. I just can't get behind some of the changes he's making to the mythology trying to cram more books in. And the first seven books were definitely the best.

(Can you tell I was a massively Srs Bisnes Redwall fan when I was younger? *g*)
