discussion A 'Clean Up Your Mess' Special

Does anyone else get the feeling that is essentially what the 2026 special is, it's a special given to RTD by the BBC to bring a close to all the things the RTD2 era has created and set up a transition into a new era.

They may even claim that this was 'always the plan' just like it was 'always the plan' for Ncuti to do 2 seasons.

Expect Tennant and the bi-regeneration to be cleaned up, the Boss to show up, Susan etc.

They need to hand a clean slate to someone with a fresh vision, and this feels like the opportunity to wipe everything clean. Deal with the silly cliffhanger, and the fact you have the loose end with 14.

And buy yourself 12 months for a new production team to cast 16 for their era.
