It's bigger on the inside!

So I'll be perfectly honest here - I don't really care where or when I would go with the Doctor.

Well, okay, there's one thing I want: I don't want to go into the future. In the words of River Song: "Spoiiilers!"

But other than that, it seems the Doctor find adventure and mystery wherever he goes. And running, all sorts of running (maybe I should hit the gym a little bit before this adventure, eesh). Plus, I'm sure he's aware of all sorts of places that I could never even imagine, so I'd like for him to choose the place and time we went.

As with Kaity, I'd also be interested to explore the TARDIS - we really only see the control room, and I'd like to see what else there is. Also, I wonder if I could convince the Doctor to teach me how to drive it, since that would be the coolest thing ever.

After the ridiculous adventures I'm sure we'd have, righting history and saving the universe and all that jazz, I'd like to go to the library the Doctor visited with Donna (it wasn't destroyed, was it? I'm a little fuzzy on the ending of that episode, but for the sake of this post I'll assume it was intact and safe), meander through the books and listen to the bits and pieces of trivia I'm sure he'd spit out about various authors, works, etc. I guess I'm okay giving in for a few spoilers there :)

Take me away in the TARDIS.

So, if that magical blue box appeared in my back garden and The Doctor popped out and asked me to go with him I would say yes, I wouldn't even stop to think.

There are several places and times I'd like to visit, I think The Doctor would probably get annoyed with me making demands all the time.

First I'd like to go back in time to be able to see some of my favourite bands play, like The Clash, that would be my first stop. Then I would want to see Johnny Cash. This would combine my love of Johnny Cash, '50s America and '50s fashion, meaning I'd get to dress up and hopefully get to keep the dress.

Also in Earth's history I'd like to visit the Roman Empire, particularly Roman Britain. I think it would be really interesting to see, I really loved learning about it when I was in primary school and it has always fascinated me and to actually see it right in front of me would be so amazing. And it would be another opportunity for me to dress up.

I'd like to visit Mars. In the future once humans have colonized it. I know in reality Mars is pretty much inhabitable but I hope that one day we will live there and I want to see it. I really hope there's a University of Mars like there was in Futurama because I'd like to go there. Most of all I want to see what our race does with the planet and why we go there. Because of something disastrous on Earth, over population (looking at China) or just because we can?

I'd also like to the end of the Earth, like Nine did with Rose, only I'd like to see it from the TARDIS, looking out of the doors possibly eating some ice cream or popcorn. I know how sad it would be to see the end of my home planet but to know I could always turn back time and see it again would make it better, that and it won't happen for billions of years too.

Of course I expect there to be lots adventures during all of this and an awful lot of running.

A Trip on the TARDIS

To answer the initial question of yes/no: Yes.  A million times yes.  I couldn't imagine saying no.

As for where and when I would want to go, that answer comes in three parts.

Part one: My real absolute most honest answer is that I would want to go somewhere and somewhen so amazing, so fantastic, so unbelievably incredible that it's outside the realm of anything I could ever even imagine on my own.  I would want to have such a magnificent adventure that it would really actually be beyond my wildest dreams.  Although this is my true answer, there's not much more to say about it, and what I've written so far is not very interesting to read and doesn't make for much of a blog post.  This is why there are two more parts.

Part two:  Place/time from the show that I would most want to go.  Given that I've only seen the new series, and not even all of that, yet, my options are somewhat limited.  I think my choice would have to be New Earth, though.  Erm, the nice top part with the apple grass, not the undercity part with the Macra.  It just seemed so idyllic and beautiful and wonderful.  I would like to explore more of the planet.  I'm assuming there were probably New versions of everywhere, not just New New (New New New New New New New New New New New New New New) York, so I'd like to see the New versions of the places I know and how they've been changed and reimagined and whether or not anything of their 21st century versions are still recognizable in them.

Part three:  Time in earth's history I'd like to visit.  So many options!  I'm very tempted by things like dinosaurs and Ancient Greece, but I think I'm going to have to say Renaissance Italy.  There's just so much happening at that time, and there were so many great geniuses going around saying wonderful things and creating beautiful things and it would all be so exciting.  I think it would lovely.

I'm Going to Steal the TARDIS

Okay, this week we're going to be talking about what we would do if given the chance to travel with the Doctor. Yes, no, where, when, any montsers, how about running? Stuff like that.

So what if the chance were presented? Certainly, yes! Yes, I would jump at that chance. Where? We are going to Mars, not to mess with Ice Warriors or dangerous water zombies, no, I just want to go there to say I've been there, we can go some place else after wards. What follows will include a really, really vague account of what will happen.

We will fight forty-two monsters in forty-two adventures on forty-one planets, because you know there's going to be at least one accidental repeat planet, most likely Earth. I'm not counting Earth in my quest to make everything be answerable with forty-two.

Did the planet that the Vinvocci are from ever get named? Because I would like to go there. However, Definitely going to the future, anywhen and anywhere more than 200 years into the future. I really want to see how far technology advances and all the places we end up. We will then find something suspicious going on that the Doctor believes to be unfitting to the scene, I will probably not notice what with me being an airhead gazing at everything and not knowing what ought or ought not to fit into the scene. There's also a shady fellow who stands awkwardly in the corner and seems connected to the suspicious thing. The shady man will notice that the Doctor noticed him and scamper off.

This suspicious thing is affecting the public in a negative fashion and the Doctor points out that it must be stopped. So we go to investigate it. This investigation leads us to what may be the source of the suspicious thing and then there's some crazy stuff, dramatic stuff, action-y stuff, the Shady Guy is actually another guy's pawn, and the Doctor wins!

A total of four people will die, because people always die, one in the very beginning, two in the middle of all the events and Shady Guy will have some sort of epiphany that makes him help the Doctor but kills Shady Guy in the process. This is only four out of five or six significant people related to the events.

Does that sound like a vague enough Doctor Who episode? Throw in some humans and humanoid-amphibian aliens all over the planet, a crablike villain and make the suspicious thing some chemical in the water supply. Then the event is more specific.

I would go nowhere near Alfalva Metraxis, having contacts makes me blink a lot.

So that's what I would do if I got to travel with the Doctor. Probably not very interesting, and I'd probably just spend most of the time wanting to explore Mars. I love Mars. If I just get to go to Mars, that would be enough for me.
