BROKE CANON: The Doctor Saved Romeo & Juliet

[@tribesman8424]

I like to think the whole in the night garden thing isn't even an evil plan it's just the master's guilty pleasure

Ruling the universe is a side hustle.

[@aaronbradleycorbett]

He definitely had no guilt lmao

[@halex6016]

He had a hand in naming all of the characters, and one of them is the doctors real name, but he's made them all so ridiculous that it's impossible to tell which one is the doctors name Is it iggle piggle? Macapaca? Wottinger? Only the master knows...

[@tribesman8424]

@@halex6016 I choose macapaca simply because I want to hear river song whispering it into the Doctor's ear

I was literally talking to friends about doing a story where the War Master is using In The Night Garden to hypnotise the children and characters into a huge army to take over the universe...So to see it DOES exist is completion

[@madanotap6492]

… and that whole bit about the 13th master is EXACTLY why you should never try to make all of doctor who canon fit into a single timeline. Pretty much the entire point of broke canon made in less than 5 minutes

[@SamyulDavis]

Nonsense. Fun nonsense though!

[@madanotap6492]

@@SamyulDavis oh absolutely. Honestly I don’t think I’ll ever let go of the version where the crispy master is crispy specifically because he tried to regenerate past the usual limit. It’s just so perfect for who the master is as a character.

[@plantainsame2049]

Also still the 13th Master but they're different versions of the 13th master Anthony Ainsley Eric Roberts and the beef jerky are all the same Incarnation but different lifetimes it's it's like a cool Counterpoint to the fact of they're being two incarnations that look like David Tennant but we only count one 10th without her at least until they brought him back Russell

[@jamesdunne8504]

In The Night Garden always weirded me out as a kid. I'm glad to know that there was a perfectly logical explanation for it.

[@nightowl8477]

I came up with a spinoff once called In the Land of Fiction. Second Doctor and Jamie, just just vibing in the Land of Fiction. Each story is a different medium, like different styles of 2D animation, or claymation, stopmotion, etc. I'm thinking Cbeebies. Get 'em while they're young.

[@BonnieFluff]

I like to think we canonically look like the Crispy Master, considering he pulls a Dark Knight and makes us look like him, we hunt the Graske as a burnt bacon man, now only if we could score as much as him.

[@Erinselysion]

I'm really enjoying War Master's audios bc not only is Derek Jacobi super talented and very fun to listen to, but even tho he's a charming and kind-sounding older gentleman, he's still The Master, he still has all these half-baked dumb plans that never succeed. Listening to him get frustrated with the daleks in Anti-Genesis was just so funny like, of course you're bored with their lack of personality. Why did you think replacing Davros with yourself would turn out well, much less fun? Totally worth my money!

[@tv6thdoctor946]

I just saw the cover for War Master vol 7 and omg I am soooooooo hyped!

The In The Night Garden bit was the funniest thing I've ever seen in a Broke cannon video, in all honesty

[@SamyulDavis]

And it wasn't even mine! Says it all

[@DeHumaneVestisFabrica]

The Kingmaker is legitimately my favourite Doctor Who story. There's just something about how all the bananas off-the-wall parts of the story fit together that is so, so satisfying. And it is legitimately one of the best portrayals of Richard III in any media. I don't get to express this opinion very often, so thank you for indulging me right now.

[@alisonmulholland7221]

I agree about Romeo and Juliet. It's definitly Shakespeare's most boring play. Give me the mad cackling lunacy of Macbeth. Or Henry VI. Pretty much everyone ends up insane in that play. EVERYONE!

[@theonewhowatches869]

Fun fact, as of _today_ the Doctor Who Wiki accepts non-narrative sources, like that thing in the last fact, as Valid Sources for in-universe articles (basically the wiki's substitute for canon). And are likely less than a week out from counting the Shalka Doctor after recently accepting Peter Cushing's Dr. Who as valid, which cleaned up a lot of stuff because of how often the Cushing movies are referenced.

[@johna5635]

The Master uses his recording studio to record... The Master Tapes!

[@toast99bubbles]

Wasn't In The Night Garden by the same creator as Teletubbies? Maybe during one of the points of meeting their future self, the War Master was told about how good Teletubbies was by the Saxon Master, so decided to get involved with another show by that creator. Although I don't recall when James Goss made that a thing and I'm sire I've listened to all War Master audios, except for the latest boxset (including when the War Master is in other series). Which story did that happen in (feel free to tell me it's one from tje latest one, I don't mind minor spoilers like that)?

Perhaps since the master likes cartoons he did the voiceover just for poops and laughs.

If we all died to the Master in canon does that make everything that happens from this point non-canon? If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it... Is it canon?

[@carealoo744]

I like being dead!

[@jojohairee9987]

I know this is unrelated to this video, but do you ever plan to just write the doctor who idea that you have about 2 doctors coexisting, it would be a shame to let that idea go to waste, and I think it could be an actual thing in the doctor who universe because big finish had made some what ifs story of Doctor who in Dr who unbound. But really its such an interesting idea that I just want to read about.

[@TheBridgieShow]

Yeah, maybe Doctor Who should stick to wildly making the events of British history all aliens. Whenever they dip into American history (and probs other countries too, I just notice the US the most cuz I'm American) there seems to be a 50/50 chance of it being incredibly cringeworthy.

[@StevenHouse1980]

99% of BROKE CANON is not Canon. After all the tv show over rides most of it, with whatever the newest version of history is at the time. also "Alternate Timelines" inside a "Time Paradox Event" should not be considerd 100% canon to the Main/Sacred/Prime timeline, as thay only effect the people who remember it happening and even then if the timelines are out of sink, not even The Doctor remembers it correctly.

[@themetaphysicalgentleman]

Doctor Who isn't like other series, though. It's not like Star Wars or Star Trek where there's an explicitly stated policy about what is and isn't canon; other than the time they said the audios are canon and the time they said the crappy Eleventh Doctor games are canon. Not even the show has been explicitly stated to be canon, and it's contradicted itself just as much if not more than it's contradicted the books, audios, etc. And when there are things in the actual show like "the moon is a dragon egg" and "the Daleks were permanently dead forever, but now they're fine"; than why argue that the other stuff doesn't count? And given the Doctor has lived for an incredibly long amount of time, it's not like there isn't room to fit these stories in.

[@impatrice9030]

in your opinion, it isn't canon

[@aristidetwain9117]

“Sacred” timeline?… You do realise the guys in "Loki" who talk about the Sacred Timelines are the *bad* guys, yes

[@madanotap6492]

Hate to point this out but… no. It is the official policy of doctor who that everything is as canon as everything else.
