Doctor in Recess (7" Mix)
With the wait between THE REALITY WAR and the 2026 DOCTOR WHO CHRISTMAS SPECIAL lasting longer that the 1985 hiatus did (1 year 6 months and 24 days versus 1 year, 5 months, and 24 days), the only logical thing to do was make a pop record. Friend of the show (and sometime co-host) Mike Solko really shouldn't have put this idea in my head. Enjoy - Rob
DOCTOR IN RECESS
(Intro)
Eighteen months is too long to wait,
BBC please, don’t aggravate.
(Verse 1)
The TARDIS doors are shuttered,
The filming lights are dim,
We’re left with endless theories,
And one half-regenerated him.
They promised worlds of wonder,
And merch from here to Mars,
But when the numbers wobbled,
They crash-landed the TARDIS hard.
(Chorus)
Doctor in recess,
Let’s all answer this time stress,
Doctor in recess,
Our fandom’s under real duress!
(Verse 2)
There’s Daleks feeling restless,
The Cybermen look bored,
The Weeping Angels whisper,
“You can blink if we’re ignored!”
The Master’s doing TikToks,
The Ood are serving tea,
And somewhere in Cardiff,
Time stands still on the BBC.
(Bridge)
Bring him back now, we’ll take no less,
The fandom’s losing its consciousness,
The universe is stuck once more,
And waiting till ‘26 is such a chore.
(Verse 3)
We’ve learned to love each Doctor,
Each face that comes and goes,
From Eccleston to Gatwa,
And whoever the next one shows.
The monsters are all waiting,
The Daleks need their cue,
Without a weekly scream to stream,
What’s a poor fan meant to do?
(Final Chorus)
Doctor in recess,
Let’s all answer this time stress,
Doctor in recess,
Our fandom’s under real duress!
Doctor in recess...
The long wait’s causing time distress!
