For those confused Bernice Summerfield is a companion to the seventh doctor and sorta the eighth doctor who appears in several books and audios Human nature was adapted from a book that featured her which i guess now happened in a different reality
@Najawin The adventure happened to both 7 and 10 . Half human was a lie that both 6,7 and 8 have dismissed now . And Looms are indeed a thing simply because its from the civil war from Phyria and Timelords had no way of reproducing for a number of generations (some Houses kept them ) .
@Najawin because 6,7 and 8 all declare it a lie in separate Big Finish audios. It would also from a narrative view point be awful. Even if Gallifraians weren't 16 billion years old as a race (humans 3 million). We know the Doctor is part something else likley Eternal or other ancient race. Timelords would not lower themselves to interbreed (their that arrogant and vile).
@Najawin Rule 1 The Doctor lies . The Doctor is not nor has ever been half human ? It is an always was a lie s/he told . No Looms work on any being who enters it and their genetic structure is simply respliced . Indeed , also The Clockwork , The Sisterhood of Khan , The Bloogans and Non Timelords .

@@CJT3X Do you think Brendan could be the doctor? When it comes to the timeless child the "mind wipe" worries me that the child had some knowledge they had not shared and now does not remember. What if the child is an immortal or even a grey guardian.
Did they say that in a River Big Finish? Or am I forgetting something from the show? Been meaning to listen to some more Big Finish before Time Lord Victorious :)
@@Char10tti3 They say that in Lies in Ruin which is part 1 of The Legacy of Time, Big Finish's big special for their 20th anniversary last year. Benny and River meet, but not for the first time :P It's also referenced in R&J, the new Lives of Captain Jack story with River and Jack.
Yes indeed, voiced by Lisa Bowerman who plays her in all the Benny audio plays and audio books, and who has directed many Big Finish audio dramas. She was also played a character in "Survival," the last TV adventure of the original DOCTOR WHO program.
You MUST listen to her BF stories. Honestly, the best thing ever. “The lights of Skaro” is brilliant, I’d recommend going back to the beginning of Bernice’s stories and work your way forward. Seriously, you’ll be so, so glad you did. Pure Doctor who through and through.
so who are all the doctors mentioned? often she: 13 Old one with all the hair: 12 The one Benny travelled with: 7, who I guess knows about daughter of mine even though she got locked away way later, by 10. thin white aristocrat: ? the one who couldn't walk: ? the one with red hair who thought he was the last: I guess 11, since he thought he was the last, but red hair though, do they mean amy?
@@vdesatch6273 I think its referring to Human Nature the novel, Human Nature the episode, and possibly the audiodrama Master, where the Master had his own timelord nature removed. Not entirely sure though
Odd and unfortunate that the follow-up story to this, SHADOW IN THE MIRROR, has had its comments locked. I'm guessing cosmic jerks spoiled the fun by posting inappropriate griping about whatever they don't like about the Thirteenth Doctor. Sad, sad little gremlins, those people.
@@jmann6130 what we really need is a circle of writers that know the lore of Doctor Who who can collectively make an arc for an incarnation of the Doctor instead of just getting random writers in. Paul Cornell would make a good choice.
Say what you like about The Timeless Children (and I do... loudly), it's nice that you can now have both versions of Human Nature and, by extension, stories like Jubilee and Dalek, What I Did on My Christmas Holiday by Sally Sparrow and Blink, Spare Parts and Rise of the Cybermen, the many iterations of Shada, etc, etc all happening in the same universe. We can all sleep now.

@@No1ShalkaFan spare parts rise of the Cybermen in World enough and time can all coexist that was a treat given to us in the doctor falls of Cyberman being space crabs with coevolution
I really do wish Paul Cornell can write more for doctor who this is what the series has been lacking recently. I hope he returns to write more for doctor who in the future
Just been listening to the story way before the watchalong, love that the show can have all of this exist at once. I always wanted The Family to come back at some point
Can't be a coincidence that RTD and Paul Cornell has now mentioned a Doctor in a wheelchair. And with the new TARDIS interior being wheelchair friendly for Wilf, this "headcanon" could become real.
I'm so confused. Are these previous versions of The Doctor, versions he forgot because he's The Timeless Child, or is it future incarnations who keep coming back? The latter seems more likely, of course.
@@sachamarten1544 Although the description does sound vaguely like the First Doctor, it doesn't make sense he'd know about Daughter of Mine before his Seventh Incarnation. As the Curator said, he liked to go back and visit a few of his old favourite faces, so perhaps he took on the First Doctor's face again.
@Toby Price Or perhaps there’s another version of “Human Nature” featuring the Hartnell Doctor, falling in love with a truly matronly version of Joan Redfern. Played by Margaret Rutherford, or someone of that ilk.
The "one who couldn't walk" is likely a reference to the Rose novelisation, where Clive has a series of photos of possible Doctors, including one in a wheelchair. The "one with red hair who thought he was the last" is a future version of the Doctor who's actually appeared in quite a few stories over the years, most notably the Battlefield novelisation and a couple of Virgin New Adventures books in the '90s. He often goes by the names of Merlin or Muldwych. No idea about the "thin white aristocrat" though. Could be the First Doctor, but that doesn't make a lot of sense timeline-wise.
I think this is referring to "Human Nature" the Seventh Doctor novel that the Tenth Doctor episode was based off of: tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Human_Nature_(novel)
^THIS guy gets it. Both versions have always been canon. Everything officially liscenced (and some things which aren't) are canon. Time travel and rewriting history allows for it all to be canon
What did the girl do to Benny? I haven’t been able to read or listen to all Bernice’s stories, so I can get a bit lost sometimes. I do adore her though.
A doctor that can't walk are we going to get a wheelchair bound Time Lord representation at last lol mind you if the Daleks can manage stairs now it shouldn't be that much disadvantage
Better than the other short story by Cornell when 13 releases the unrepentant monster to the world. She will never repent though so should never be released, they wanted immortality, and he gave it to them.
@@andrewsmart4491 The whole point is that it doesn’t matter whether she repents or not, the point is that 13 chooses to give kindness onto someone who doesn’t deserve it, that in life you’re given a choice whether to increase or decrease someone’s happiness, thirteen insures that the girl isn’t able to hurt anyone else, and thirteen chooses to give happiness.
Lewis Gennery They were so vague as to what “Holiday season” meant, I was kind of hoping it would be a Diwali special. Subvert expectations, celebrate Yaz a little bit. From my perspective, I’ve never known anyone who celebrates Epiphany or the other end of Christmas. It’s certainly not as big as regular Christmas, so to me, the holiday season ends ON New Year’s Day. Like handing in a project just ahead of the deadline
Benny was in a book already with the 12th doctor called Big Bang generation so she is still in the loop with new who surprised the show never makes reference to any of her activities since she’s a published Professor of archeology tho the Braxiatel Collection (her longest place of work) was mentioned once by Romana so she cannon by default
Ben Ben however Benny has also met the Valeyard and she’s currently traveling with the third doctor from an alternate universe so I’d say Prof Summerfield knows more about the Doctor then his own wife and in Lies in Ruins Benny is surprised that River has never been to Gallifrey while she has visited the planet more then once!
Bernice is a companion of the seventh doctor and sorta eigth doctor who appears in several books and audios Human nature was a live action version of a book featuring her which is why she knows so much i guess there saying her version happend in another reality
Professor Bernice Summerfield also known as Benny. She was created by Paul Cornell. She travelled with the 7th Doctor and briefly the 8th Doctor in the Virgin New Adventures books. She later went on to have her own audio range done by Big Finish Productions played by Lisa Bowerman who plays her in this story. In the audios she would meet the 8th Doctor a few more times as well as the 7th Doctor and currently travels with a version of the Doctor from another universe.
So, they turned off comments AND like/dislike for "The Shadow in the Mirror". I wonder why? Let the alien go live a life in the body of the little girl she killed to take it, who isn't sorry, that admits it will kill again...that's not mercy, that's stupid at best, accessory to murder at the worst. Sure, let's royally screw up the ending to one of the best Who stories ever. Great idea! Of course, screwing over the great past of Dr. Who seems to be exactly what they want to do these days just because the great character happened to have white skin and be biologically male. Great representation of what a woman would do in the same man's place. Too bad the little girl didn't kill her and take over her body.
They turned the comments off because bad media comprehension combined with fanboy misogyny is an ugly combination. You seem to be a perfect case study. The Doctor freed the alien because she realized that there was nothing to be gained in punishment. The Doctor would've held onto this rage long after they've forgotten why they were angry in the first place, and the alien was never going to repent. 13 choose to do the healthy thing and let go. She ensured the alien would die before hurting anyone else, allowing the alien to die as it chooses to and allowing the Doctor to move on. Timeless child sucked ass and undeniably broke the character, but this isn't the same thing at all. Doctor Who has always been about kindness, forgiveness, and mercy. Not to mention, they literally set this up in the original episode. In my mind, this is the perfect resolution of this story.
