Creating Canon

We talked before about Moffit working towards the origin story. While I haven't given it a second, much deserved, viewing, I see how Moffit has done just that. But rather artfully.

*****SPOILERS************

Unleashing these two "immortals", both tutored by the Doctor, upon time and space with their own TARDIS creates an origin story for these characters and adds clues to the Doctors's beginnings. Moffit carves in stone new elements to a 50 year old story arc.

A cross-over with Sherlock might tear a hole in spacetime, but it'd be worth it. The two of them ego sparing would be entertaining...like the Robin Hood episode. Pivot off Watson to go to Middle Earth and...well...nevermind.
