The Professor
for The Professor in Doctor Who: The Cancelled Who
Suggested by doctorwho2000s
In the 6th of December 1989. Jonathan Powell, the new Controller of BBC 1, regarded Nathan-Turner with contempt, and the BBC's head of series, Peter Cregeen, decided to cancel the series, a decision which was clear to the production team by the end of production on the twenty-sixth of August 1989. Therefore, Doctor Who has offcially been cancelled. But, what if, it didn't happen. What if: Doctor Who had survived the cancellation in 1989. How this could've changed the history of the show itself if it hadn't been cancelled? This is a question several people have attempted, and i think i should give it a shot.
