"What if... the Doctor was put on trial for being a know-it-all?"
"The Trial of a Smug Git"
 

 

 

Starring Rory McGrath as the Doctor

The Doctor has been taken out of space and time by his own people and now stands before a jury accused of a heinous crime.

"I intend to prove that the accused - known as The Doctor - is one of the most infuriating beings this Time Lord race has ever produced. He is pedantic,"

"From the Latin paedent meaning to instruct"

"He is smug,"

"Derived from smucken, a low German word meaning to adorn. I believe it was Jones who said "The only thing worse than smug married couple is lots of smug married couples." That's Bridget Jones - I thought I'd come down to your level for a moment."

"He is also diabolically obnoxious."

"A word of Indo-European roots which has the archaic meaning 'To be deserving of censure'"

"I intend to adumbrate nine thousand, six hundred and thirty two epistopic interfaces of the spectrum to prove that the accused is guilty of these crimes."

"Please proceed, Valeyard."

Will the Doctor be erased from time?

Or will the Inquisitor show mercy and merely force him to regenerate into someone nice like Stephen Fry?

Time will tell.

"Though presumably not the Illinois town of Time, population 36, which... has absolutely no bearing on the matter in hand and I realise now that my mentioning it is scoring points for the Valeyard so I'll be quiet now."
