DOCTOR WHO: THE FIVE DOCTORS REDUX

-----

NOTE: THIS IS DONE PURELY FOR ENTERTAINMENT, I'AM NOT MAKING PROFIT NOR DO I WORK FOR THE BBC (Though I'm applying to get a job there soon after I leave High School),

LITTLE HISTORY LESSON: Many, many Doctor Who fans where Devastated when Tom Baker decided not to appear in The Five Doctors as he felt it was too soon to return to the show (He'd only been gone just over a year),However he was added in using clips from the Uncompleted Serial 'Shada', (The only clips were of his kidnapping and his return with no interactions with the Other Doctors) Although I was born in September 1993 (4 Years after Doctor Who had been cancelled and 10 years after The Five Doctors) I too am still disappointed that Tom Baker didn't return, However after I bought the DVD, I have the Entire Script of the show..now All I have to do is add in The 4th Doctor and finally...we have ALL 5 Doctors.

NOTE 2: THIS WILL NOT BE A NOVELIZATION OF THE ENTIRE 90 MINUTE EPISODE, JUST THE EPISODE FROM THE FOURTH DOCTORS P.O.V

NOTE 3: AS 14 MAY 2009 I REPLACED THE OLD CHAPTER WITH THIS VERSION RIGHT NOW, AFTER VARIOUS COMPLAINTS THAT ROMANA WAS OOC

THE ORIGINAL SHADA SCENE

NOTE: IN THIS VERSION THEY'RE WEARING THERE NORMAL OUTFITS ON THE BOAT (You'll understand If you've seen The Five Doctors)

The Scene Opens up in a area with a small ravine, and In there is small boat sailing, The 4th Doctor is rowing with a rather large stick, while his Romana is reading and also listening to some music on the Gramophone

"Wordsworth...Rutherford...Christopher Smart...Andrew Marvell...Judge Jeffreys..." The Fourth Doctor listed before turning his attention to Romana "Owen Chadwick"

Romana put her book down and asked the Doctor "Who?"

"Owen Chadwick? Oh, Yes, some of the greatest labourers in the history of Earth have thought here." The Doctor Replied.

"Newton, of course" Romana added

"Oh, definitely Newton"

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction" Romana quoted

"That's right" The Doctor Congratulated

"So, Newton invented Punting"

"Oh, yes" The Doctor replied with a grin on his face "There was no limit to Issac's genius"

"Isn't it wonderful how something so primitive can be so..."

"Restful?" The Doctor interrupted

"No, simple" Romana corrected "You just push in one direction and the boat goes in the other."

Romana took a look around admiring the lush countryside

"Oh, I do love the spring. All the leaves and Colours."

"It's October..."

"I thought you said we were coming here for May Week" Romana asked

"I did. May Week's in June" The Doctor said as he concentrated on rowing

"...I'm confused" Romana shrugged

"So was the TARDIS." The Doctor said followed by a short chuckle

"Oh, I do love the autumn. All the leaves, the colours." Romana said, using an alternate version of her speech.

"Yes. Well, at least with something as simple as a punt nothing can go wrong" The Doctor said "No co-ordinates, No dimensional stabilisers. Nothing. Just the Water, a punt, a strong pair of hands and a pole."

However at that moment the pole had snagged on something in the water and the Doctor had dropped it, nearly losing his balance as he was nearly pulled off by it. As he was staggering, trying to avoid falling into the water, above them was a spinning black triangle shaped object about he grab them. A Time Scoop. And it's the best time to strike, as The Doctor was distracted. By the time they had noticed. It was too late, They had been sucked in. The Time Scoop was taking them somewhere thought out space. To The Doctors home planet.

Gallifrey

MEANWHILE

---

In a mysterious Black room. someone in a dark cloak is fiddling around with some controls, On the Screen is an Image of the Fourth Doctor, Strangely the Image is waving about, Like it's pulsing. The Unknown person spins around what appears to be a track ball. and then frantically taps on the keypad. until a bleep is heard

END OF THE ORIGINAL SHADA SCENE

"Almost lost you there...you won't escape me Doctor"

A small door opens nearby, Inside it appears to be figures on The Doctor and Romana. The unknown man grabs them and takes them to a strange circular platform. As he places them on it the area below them lights up. They also appear to be joined by a number of other figures...

ELSEWHERE

"Ugh..." The Doctor groaned as he slowly prepped up "What Happened?...Romana?..Romana!"

"I'm over here Doctor" Romana groaned as she was face down in a pile of rubble.

The Doctor rushed over and helped her up

"You Okay?" The Doctor asked

"Where are we?" Romana asked as she dusted herself off

The Doctor took a quick look around, he was surrounded by Rubble and dirt

"Looks like some sort of quarry?" The Doctor said before he noticed a large tower "Is That..."

"...it can't be" Romana said as she too noticed the tower

"It's the tower of Rassilon!, We're on the Death Zone on Gallifrey!" They both said simulataniously

"The place where out ancestors kidnapped other beings and set them down here, then they laced the place with an impenetrable forcefield" The Doctor said with a slight hint of disgust in his tone "Well off we go"

"Are you serious?!" Romana asked

"What? Going To the Tower of Rassilon? Of course. " The Doctor said as he began to walk. "Come on..."

Romana with no choice left began to follow the Doctor.
