Wilf is a marvellous character, and it was really fun to write him.
"It's bigger on the inside," Wilf mumbled to himself, stepping into the TARDIS behind the Doctor.
Donna closed the door behind them, "Where do you want to go?"
"Where can we go?" Wilf wondered.
"Anywhere," Donna grinned, exchanging a look with the Doctor.
"Do you want it to be a surprise?" the Doctor asked, already at the Console controls.
"Sure," Wilf shrugged.
"Then I suggest we hold on," Donna prompted, still smiling, as the two of them grabbed onto a piece of the railing.
The TARIDS started flying, the sound of its departure echoing throughout it, making the Doctor almost laugh with glee. Donna exchanged a look of excitement with her grandfather, then one with the Doctor. When the ship landed, Wilf looked around in wonder, sensing that something had happened, but not sure what.
"After you," the Doctor beckoned, pointing towards the door.
Wilf pointed to himself, as if asking if the invitation was meant for him, and, when both the Doctor and Donna nodded, shrugged, and whispered, "Here goes."
"Well?" Donna asked, a hand on her grandfather's shoulder, after she and the Doctor had followed him outside.
"Unbelievable," Wilf breathed. "Can I?"
"Of course," the Doctor replied. "It's all yours."
Wilf needed no further invitation and walked closer toward the water.
It sparkled under the sky as the clean grass bent under their feet. Bright flowers twirled in the light breeze and tall trees gave no shade as their transparent leaves bent the light. In the water, serene and free of waves, dolphins chirped as they flitted around in and out of sight. A fin was seen, the body sliding under the water's surface, as the Doctor and Donna joined Wilf in observing the paradise.
