BROKE CANON: Torchwood Tracks Santa's Movements

[@hunterkiller1440]

It'd be funny when Torchwood found out Santa is the Futurama Robot Santa that discovered time travel.

[@chibacityblues2003]

Fun fact: According to the audio adventure Song of Megaptera, the doctor nearly lost the TARDIS to a leprechaun and Unicorns were hunted to extinction.

[@firetarrasque4667]

"The Doctor constantly fights with himself about whether or not Santa is real" makes perfect sense for the Doctor... Somehow.

[@simonchabot390]

yo Sam, i know you briefly touched upon this when you talked about Clive, but I think his website is worth doing a bit of a deep dive into. There's a bunch of stuff on there, from cameos from classic companions like Sarah Jane and Peri, some pre-War Doctor Time War lore (story that involves Eccleston stumbling out of the Tardis in McGann's clothes, implied to be right after he activated the Moment) and even an Eccleston story that was made up especially for that website. Seriously, it's like a wall of text that I thought was a reference to a comic or something, but nope, 100% original. I know you've mentioned before that you have a bunch of these already recorded in advance so idk if you've already covered this in a future episode, but if you haven't, might be worth checking out. Cheers.

[@SamyulDavis]

I did think about talking about those 'sightings' comments, but stupidly passed up the chance!

[@simonchabot390]

@@SamyulDavis I'm crazy for all that viral marketing type stuff so I went through all of them trying to see if they put any hints for series 1 in there and sure enough there were a few things. There's even one that foreshadows the greatest Who moment of all time, aka when they play "Toxic" in The End of the World. The part with post-Time War Eccleston was really cool to me cause as much as I love Day of the Doctor I can't help but think about what could've been if McGann had been the one to set off the Moment. So much potential. But yeah if you somehow ever run out of stuff to talk about, some of those sightings could definitely make for some interesting facts. Glad to see you back at it after the hiatus, a new Broke Canon is just what I needed after finishing my exams!

[@sacrificiallamb4568]

My theory is that Eccleston ran into the TARDIS, grabbed McGann's clothes and tried to recreate a regeneration from him.

[@suecra13]

This is one of my favorite youtube series right now. Thank you for making these. I've always had a thirst for weird wiki-lore and this always satisfies. If this is like DW homework for you, you could search for every genocide the Doctor has ever actually committed? I recently listened to Omega, and as casually as The Doctor brings up how he accidently eradicated an entire species of sentient creatures (the Scintillans). Alone that's just such a weird oneoff character building thing but I feel like there's got to be more than that. EDIT: Actually, wow, wtf, the Tardis Fandom page has a dedicated section for The Doctor's Genocides. Why was it so frequent in the classic series for The Doctor to trick someone who was the last of their species into their death?? The post time-war blues must really have some layers to it after seeing that, some sour humble pie Nine and Ten must have had telling everyone who asked that they were the last of the time lords.

[@SamyulDavis]

The Omega mistake is coming up! Thanks for your words and merry Christmas

[@rhodiumveil7072]

How can you bring up Twelve Doctors of Christmas in regards to the Doctors relationship with Santa and not include how the Fourth Doctor hijacked the Apollo 8 mission as part of his plan to win a bet with ‘an old acquaintance’ that delivering presents to everyone on Earth isn’t as hard as he makes it out to be?!

Fortunately the poor victim of 13's Time Loop is saved, by the Cybermen and even gets to be the Doctor for a bit when she can't choose between saving the universe, or saving a branched timeline where Ten married Marie Antoinette and had kids. And I'm not quite sure but that segment seems like it's trying to imply that you are one of those kids, maybe? Also one of the collectibles in Edge of Reality is the shrunken corpse of Agent O, that guy that Master was impersonating in Spyfall, so that's just lovely.
