DOCTOR WHO SERIES 9: COULD THE DOCTOR MEET HIS OWN GHOST?
Showrunner Steven Moffat also reveals that series 9’s Zygon two-parter will touch upon the heated topic of immigration…
Another day, another exciting detail from Doctor Who series 9. This time: that, following on from series 7’s Hide, there will be another story about ghosts – but with a twist.
Speaking to Doctor Who Magazine, showrunner Steven Moffat revealed that episode 3 and 4, written by Toby Whithouse, will play around with the idea of time travelling so far into the future that you meet your own ghost – a la the Doctor’s grave in The Name of the Doctor.
“We kicked a few ideas backwards and forwards, Toby and I, for quite a while, and the one that sort of kicked him off was ‘ghosts plus time travel’. You know, if you allow both time travel and ghosts in the same universe, you can meet your own ghost. That’s the one that got his juices going. And it’s all down to him. He also wanted an underwater base, and it looks amazing. It’s an amazing set. It looks fantastic.”
