5 People that are Probably Time Lords
later-day-saint geeks ^

Posted on 01/27/2022 7:11:21 AM PST by mylife

Even though the Time Lords have been destroyed (twice now), there’s always a chance more Time Lords exist elsewhere in the universe still. We know about the Doctor and the Master, it’s also possible the Hermit, the Curator, the Monk, and Jenny are still about, as they’ve been known to be off-world. But even though the population of a whole species is likely down to single digits, that won’t stop fans from creating head-canons about other potential Time Lords.

Mary Poppins I’ve written about this before, but Disney’s beloved Mary Poppins is remarkably similar to the Eleventh Doctor in many ways. Her demeanor for one thing, whimsical at times but also serious. But also she lived on a cloud. Again, let’s bring in her bigger-on-the-inside bag, which is obviously Time Lord technology.

Santa Claus This one was hinted at by the Doctor himself. Actually, the Ninth Doctor hinted at being Santa. In “The Doctor Dances”, in his joyous musings, he told Rose that he might be, off-handedly referencing her 12-year-old Rose’s Christmas present. Also, a prayer to Santa Claus brought the Eleventh Doctor to young Amelia Pond–though he later said he knew Santa as “Jeff”. But in contradiction to all of that, the Twelfth Doctor also claimed Santa Claus appearing was ridiculous in “Last Christmas”. So who knows? But it would explain why the story of Santa Claus has persisted long since Saint Nicholas; he keeps regenerating.

Willy Wonka Starting with the fact that his Glass Elevator could be a TARDIS, let’s also look at how Willy Wonka’s eccentric fashion wouldn’t look out of place on the Doctor. In addition to his style and his elevator, let’s also look at the Oompa Loompas. These humanoid creatures came from the mysterious Loompaland. Silly as the name sounds, it could be an alien world whose population Wonka saved.

Miss Frizzle I miss the Magic School Bus. It’s how I remember anything about the human immune system and photosynthesis. Miss Frizzle is another with whacky fashion choices. And her school bus, with how it changes shape and travels so quickly through space, might as well be a TARDIS. And with how Time Lords aren’t supposed to interfere, she merely teaches children about their own world. Or maybe she's just River Song?

James Bond Finally we’ve got the man with a license to kill. While that might be the Doctor’s style, that’s obviously not the case with all Time Lords. I mean, just look at Rassilon. He was willing to kill the Doctor multiple times (and all of Earth). And speaking of Rassilon, don’t forget who he was played by in “The End of Time”, a previous incarnation of James Bond. Coincidence? Probably, but it’s good fodder for a head-canon.

Mary Poppins may have been expelled from Hogwarts, which would explain why she conceals her wand in her umbrella like Hagrid does.

I've seen other photos of that dress. I think it has been "retouched" for...obvious reasons.

Why is the government going after the unvaccinated when Doctor Who fans are obviously the greater annoyance?

“She actually was the Doctor’s daughter. Georgia Moffett’s father is Peter Davison....the Fifth Doctor.”

And she married the Tenth Doctor....David Tennant.

The Eleventh Doctor is a loser and the show has jumped the shark - some movement to sell the failed property to one of the shows originators for a fresh start - perhaps by relegating 11th to an alternate universe, now destroyed.

Are you referring to the Thirteenth Doctor played by actress Jodie Whittaker?

Well done!... And how about that shape shifting female who has 'peculiar School for unusual children'? And off hand, I would submit that Patton was / is a time lord, given George Sc ott's prtrayal in the movie, where he relates the many times he has died in battle. Then there is Sean Connery in the 'there can be only one' movie.

Oh my, my head is exploding with possibilities! You've started soemthing, dude.

clara was uber hottie, but I was kinda disappointed that they never did anything with Jenny, and now the wokesters have completely destroyed the franchise.

Glad you straightened all that out...
However, the only one we can be absolutely sure about is Jenny...

I might have done lots unspeakable stuff to Peri, but only to keep her quiet
