RUMOR: Doctor Who’s Original Season 2 Ending Revealed Prior To Reshoots

by

Summary

  • The season two ending of Doctor Who was originally set to feature a big party for the characters.
  • Rumors about the show being axed due to ratings drop and woke storylines persist.
  • Uncertainty surrounds the future of Doctor Who, with potential reshoot changes impacting the original ending.

As a devoted cinephile, I’m right smack dab in the thick of Doctor Who’s second season, with merely two episodes left on the horizon. The narrative tension and drama are reaching new heights, leaving me brimming with anticipation about how this sci-fi juggernaut will conclude. With our beloved Time Lord gearing up for a showdown against the Rani to safeguard Earth, the speculation surrounding the series’ endgame is running rampant.

Initially, it may appear that the conclusion of Doctor Who is straightforward, but recent developments suggest otherwise. Reports indicate that the show is undergoing reshoots, sparking rumors about its potential cancellation or hiatus. At present, the fate of this legendary TV series remains uncertain, although details about the original plans for ending season two have come to light.

Based on information from industry insider Daniel Richtman, the initial plan for the season 2 finale of “Doctor Who” had the Doctor, Ruby, Belinda, and other heroes celebrating in a grand party that bore resemblance to Amy and Rory’s wedding during the Eleventh Doctor’s era on the show. The Vlinx were supposed to provide music as a DJ for this festivity. However, it’s uncertain how much of this planned celebration remained when the series went back into production to film a new ending.

There’s been talk that “Doctor Who” might be cancelled because of a significant decrease in viewership, with several viewers voicing concerns about the frequent inclusion of socially progressive storylines. The BBC hasn’t provided a definitive answer on its future, merely emphasizing the role of ratings, as a third season hasn’t been confirmed yet. During reshoots, speculation arose that Gatwa filmed a regeneration scene, potentially setting up an open-ended finale for potential future revivals. However, Richtman mentioned that in the original ending, Susan Foreman was depicted watching everyone partying from a distance, which could have served as a cliffhanger if the show were to end there.

As a dedicated fan, I find myself captivated by the enigmatic figure of Susan, the granddaughter of the Doctor. She was once his trusted companion and has left many puzzling traces throughout the Tenure of Gatwa’s Time Lord. The show has been subtly weaving this narrative thread to bridge the Fifteenth Doctor with his past. Concluding a potential third season with Susan overseeing him would have served as an intriguing cliffhanger, hinting at further revelations about their bond and unraveling more secrets of their connection.

It’s possible that Susan won’t appear because reshoots might have removed her, as including her in the background could spark speculation about ‘Doctor Who’ coming back again. If she is still part of it, her inclusion wouldn’t make sense. The rumored regeneration scene could be used if one was filmed, since it would conclude Gatwa’s tenure and make it straightforward for a new actor to step into the role. However, as nothing has been confirmed regarding ‘Doctor Who’s future beyond this season being originally planned with a happy ending, there remains uncertainty about what lies ahead.
