What would you most like to do to Doctor Who? (Keep it clean). Anything goes, subject to the following:

1. Demoting RTD, sacking RTD, or terminating RTD with extreme prejudice won't make for an interesting thread. If your single change is one of these, then imagine RTD has already gone and THEN choose your one thing.

2. Be creative and constructive, brief, and think wishfully. "Write better scripts" is not what we're looking for. "Film the Time War", "Never use the Daleks again" or "Bring back Jon Pertwee" are just right. Have fun!

Make the Daleks a foe to be feared once again.

(They've become as terrifying as the Tellytubbies).

Get The Doctor to regenerate into a non-humanoid. (maybe not actually, although if Matt Lucas takes over it could be done lol)

Primeval style gratuitous use of young females in their undies?
(Needn't be an ex S-Clubber, though Tina Barrret would be nice )

Better stories, better characterisations of enemies, less pantomime comedy.

Less of this promotional gimmicky crap with the kissing.

It's so lame and repetitive. Every year it's 'Ooh somone's kissing the Doctor. Is it a real kiss? Is it a kiss that isn't really a kiss?'
Don't f*cking care. Just stop it.

good solid scary stories...and less of RTD's juvenile humour injected into them. no bitch slapping Daleks or Cybermen and get them back to the menace they should and deserve to be. less of the will they, won't they scenario as it has been done to death in the first two series.

Bring back Paul McGann (although I believe he has said that he will never play the Doctor on TV again).
