Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


The Doctor ''did'' re-set the Cybermen's programming to consider two-hearted humanoids fair game for "upgrading", after all, and they needn't necessarily have ''reversed'' that change when they undid his hacking, just adjusted it to allow for ''both'' single- and double-hearted recruits. The two Masters had walked some distance from the battlefield before taking their ChronicBackstabbingDisorder UpToEleven, so Missy's fallen body would've been safely out of range of the explosions. And we know from "Heaven Sent" that Time Lords take a ''really'' long time to die, so even without the benefits of regeneration, there could easily be enough life left in her flesh for the Cybermen to "upgrade" what was left of her, when the next wave of Operation Exodus came through to occupy Floor 507. It'd make for a nice bit of karmic irony for Missy to share Bill's fate, not to mention maintaining the tradition of ''something'' nasty - rotting alive, turning into a cat or an invisible snake, affliction with HorrorHunger - happening to ''every'' incarnation of the Master near the end of their tenure. Whether Cyber-Missy's agenda would remain her own, or whether she'd be dominated by the Cyber-programming like so many of the dead she'd converted in "Dark Water"/"Death In Heaven" is anybody's guess.

Removed the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgement pothole in line with this thread: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15962256090A28973800&page=1


Krasko is a futuristic racist while Robertson is a thinly-veiled parody of Creator/DonaldTrump, who is [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment frequently criticized for being racist]].

*** [[spoiler: Confirmed, The Timeless Child is in fact the collective name for the pre-Hartnell incarnations of the Doctor. The Doctor is in fact not subject to the 12-regeneration limit, as she is not really a Time Lord but something much older and stranger.]]




to:

* Confirmed he will return at least; apparently he's showing up in the new year's special, "Revolution of the Daleks". Whether he gets comeuppance is yet to be seen.




to:

* Very likely jossed, as Thirteen faced off against a very different incarnation of the Master in the next season.

[[WMG: The Solitract was foreshadowing what the Doctor will do with her companions]]
The revival has played with the idea that the Doctor is a bad influence on companions. Perhaps the Doctor will realize she is damaging her companions, and let them go as the Solitract let her go.

[[WMG: The Solitract crisis was manipulated by Omega]]
* Considering that Series 12 is teasing some more exploration of Gallifrey, Omega could appear as a new villain. Since he's associated with Antimatter, maybe it will turn out he was behind the events of ''It Takes You Away''.

On second thought this entry might be a bad idea. Actually that one a couple lines above might be too.


[[WMG: Robertson doesn't hate Donald Trump for political reasons.]]
It's entirely due to his being a business competitor.

[[WMG: One of the Doctor's grannies was a female incarnation of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS11E5PlanetOfTheSpiders K'anpo]]]]
Because that actually would make a whole lot of sense, especially if the above WMG that granny means "non-related elderly female loved one" is true.
