The New Doctor Who: Into the Firewall
Project Overview
Yes, you read that right. This is a remake of Series 11 to the Modern series of Doctor Who, which aired in 2018. A series, not necessarily considered terrible, but largely agreed to be 'inconceivably inconsistent', 'lazy', and 'creatively bankrupt'. Many saying it fails to satisfy the majority of Doctor Who fans in more ways than one, and tears down the very fabric of the show. The point of this series is to breathe new life into the series with an original and creative direction
YouTuber 'B-Where', popular mainly for his videos criticizing and opinionating points of many science fiction television series and movies, took a particular fascination in the current Chris Chibnal era of Doctor Who (spoiler: he's not a very big fan). So, in order to honor the show's legacy in the most respectful way he can (many Doctor Who fans will tell you Chris Chibnal hasn't) B-WHERE has spent the past few months, painstakingly gathering a large team of artists, composers, designers, and, of course, actors to completely remake this series from the ground up, starting from Peter Capaldi's 12th Doctor's regeneration---the point that many Doctor Who fans agree is when many issues started to arise.

A fun-loving, goofy and forgetful future version of the Time Lord. To play this role, you should be able to somewhat accurately mimic the voice of actor Michael Sheen.
“Deja-vu? That’s just your timelines bleeding in on each other, including all the memories that you haven’t had yet! It’s quite common, really.”
“Good Morning/evening to you, by the way… Or perhaps… Croeso? Nin hao? Pandskaa?! ...Mazel tov?”
“Right, hello, again. Sorry, should probably clarify. You’re in my TARDIS, a space and time transcending machine. It’s bigger on the inside, smaller on the out, it’s all very overly and perfectly reasonably complicated, and I’m sure you get the idea-”
A grumpy, no-nonsense, vengeful future version of the Time Lord. To play this role, you should be able to somewhat accurately mimic the voice of actor Judi Dench.
“That settles it. This is definitely YOUR Tardis, mine doesn’t have so many… leakages!-”
“Oh please don’t get the damn specs out! You’ve gotten a new pair of eyes fourteen times now and yet you still can’t see properly?! Next you’ll be wearing a bloody monocle…”
“Adric was the first! The first death in a long, long line of people we have lost in our stupid crusades over the years. So don’t you dare claim to be the Doctor and do anything less than care about him.”
Theta Sigma, the name granted to the young time lord academy student who would one day be known as the Doctor. To portray this role, you should have some of the speech mannerisms of William Hartnell's 1st doctor, but with the voice of a young man, preferably a younger teenager. (14-16)
“And here we are! ‘Through the eyes of torn Medusa!’. They say it’s an atmospheric side effect of the Untempered Schism. A torn piece of space, peering directly into the time vortex! I've heard, those wise enough can look through it and actually see a part of their future!-”
“I think I see... well I'll be! Planets, and colours! They're all whizzing and racing about one another in a mirage! Their entire lives in a flash... And I can see it all!! All of history, exploding and beginning right before my eyes! And emotions- Love! Pride! Hate! Fear! I see it all!”
“Just give it a minute, it is! Just...think about what you want to see! Think about the person you wanna be in the future!”
Ushas is the young Time Lord Academy student who would one day be known as the Rani. The general tone of this character is very similar to that of Hermoine Granger. A well-meaning teenage girl with a bit of an ego, and a penchant for intellectualism. She should sound like a younger version of the Rani played by Kate O'Mara. (about age 14-16)
"That’s not quite how the story goes. They say you can only ever see potential futures. That it’s only mainly influenced by your desires...Bit too fantasy for me though-”
“I don’t just enjoy it because I have to. I like science, because maybe someday it’ll mean I won’t have to become one of them. The Time Lords, the high Gallifreyan council. I don’t want to sit in a glass castle and send more children away from their homes... like they did with us. What if there’s a possibility, that the best version of me can leave someday? To actually put some good into the universe for a change, with the discoveries I make? And by chance, if I do... maybe I won’t be the last. What if I can break this stupid routine, that inducts so many of us? I could actually live someday... and maybe my peers could too...”
“You don’t know that! What happened to that person we saw in the bank? What happened to- to you actually caring?! Do the ends even justify the means anymore? What about your work is so beneficial to rationalize people dying for it??”
Koschei, the name granted to the young time lord academy student who would one day be known as the Master. To portray this role, you should have some of the speech mannerisms of Roger Delgado's Master, but with the voice of a young man, preferably a younger teenager. (14-16)
“Such a show-off! He’s a liar! The thing doesn’t even flippin’ work!”
“She said - GET ON THE GROUND! ALL OF YOU!”
“*Maniacally laughs*”
(lasers firing) “What are you talking about? This is practically a classic night out on the town for us! What time did you book the table again?”
