Announcing DWFan1991's Doctor Who What Ifs

Welcome to DWFan1991's Doctor Who What Ifs Series.

Doctor Who, whether you love it, grew up with it, or are just discovering it, is a series that has defied time, literally and figuratively. As of now, Doctor Who just finished with Season 2 (or Series 15, depending on how you count), starring Ncuti Gatwa as the 15th Doctor and Varada Sethu as Belinda Chandra, with the huge reveal of the return of...Billie Piper as...the 16th Doctor? Or is it Bad Wolf? Who knows? But this blog isn't about where the TARDIS has landed now, it's about where it could have gone.

Because with a show built on time travel, regeneration, and infinite universes, there's one question that keeps echoing through space and time:
What if?

In this series, we dive headfirst into alternate realities and speculative rewrites of key events across Doctor Who history.
Ever wondered:

• What if the 14th Doctor never bi-generated?

• What if Doctor Who wasn’t cancelled in 1989? (Doctor Who: Beyond the Cancellation Reborn)

• What if the 2005 revival never happened and Doctor Who came back with the Shalka Doctor?

• What if Christopher Eccleston had stayed for Series 2?

• What if William Hartnell had fully stayed for Season 4?

• What if Patrick Troughton stayed for Season 7?

• What if the Paul McGann spin-off rumours were true?

• What if Paul McGann was in Series 1 or his TV Movie era was a success?

• What if John Nathan-Turner never became producer? (Doctor Who: 1979 Redefined)

• What if The 1985 Hiatus Never Happened?

• What if Colin Baker or Sylvester McCoy were the 14th Doctor

• What if Ncuti Gatwa's era was different and also had a third season/series? (Doctor Who What If: The Reimagined Gatwa/RTD2 Era)

You'll find all that and more, right here. In fact, I’m also bringing over my older project, Doctor Who: Beyond the Cancellation, which will be now called Doctor Who: Beyond the Cancellation Reborn, folding it into this multiversal archive of possibilities.

And for the grandest “what if” of them all: What if I were Doctor Who’s showrunner?

So hop aboard the TARDIS, and let’s explore the different paths Doctor Who could have picked.

Allons-y!
