Read the scene scripts being used to select the next Doctor on Doctor Who!

With Matt Smith stepping down from his role as The Doctor on the British sci-fi show Doctor Who actors are scrambling to audition for the role.

However, the next Doctor Who Magazine will have in it three scene script extracts used for the 12th Doctor auditions that fans can take a look at and read. These are the exact scripts that will be used in choosing the 12th Doctor.

Take a look and read the scenes but be warned that showrunner Steven Moffat has stated that these scenes will not be used in any actual episode and should not be used to get a glimpse of the 12th Doctor.

 

"1. INT. TARDIS

The new Doctor is checking out the new body. Clara, watching. It’s been a few minutes, they’re both still adjusting.

THE DOCTOR: Right then, eyesight. Not bad, bit blue. Ears – not pointy, right way up, more or less level. Face – well I’ve got one. Oh, no -French!

CLARA: French.

THE DOCTOR: I’ve deleted French! Plus all cookery skills, and the breast stroke. And hopping. Never mind hopping, who needs to hop. Ohh, the kidneys are interesting. Never had that before – interesting kidneys. 

CLARA: Are you all right?

THE DOCTOR: I don’t know, do I look all right? 

CLARA: I don’t know. 

THE DOCTOR: How’s the face? Seems all right from the inside. Nice action, responsive. Bit less heft on the chin. How is it? 

CLARA: It’s… okay. 

THE DOCTOR: Okay? 

CLARA: It’s a bit… you know. 

THE DOCTOR: No I don’t, I haven’t seen it yet. 

CLARA: Maybe it’s just new. 

THE DOCTOR: Have you changed height? 

CLARA: No.

 

2. INT. SPACE SHIP BRIDGE

The Doctor is facing down the Cyberleader, who stares balefully down from the screen. The bridge around the Doctor is burning, ruined.

THE DOCTOR: Ah, Cyberleader, hello!

CYBERLEADER: Do you have a response, Doctor.

THE DOCTOR: Yes, I do. Definitely got a response. And here it is. Yes, your ears look big in that! Sorry, did I misunderstand the question?

CYBERLEADER: You will return the stolen cargo.

THE DOCTOR: Yeah, well, two points. One, I didn’t steal it. No, actually, I did steal it, I was just hoping if I said that I’d think of a really good excuse before the end of the sentence. Didn’t happen, never mind. Point two – well, point one, second attempt – that isn’t cargo. Those are human beings.

CYBERLEADER: They are primed for conversion.

THE DOCTOR: I’ve unprimed them.

CYBERLEADER: You will return the cargo.

THE DOCTOR: No, I won’t.

CYBERLEADER: Then the cargo will be taken.

THE DOCTOR: Not going to happen, and do you know what’s going to stop you?

CYBERLEADER: We will not be stopped. The Doctor raises a finger.

THE DOCTOR: Tell it to the finger. See this finger? See what I’m doing with this finger right now. The Doctor moves to the screen. Starts drawing a line across.

THE DOCTOR: I’m drawing a line between this ship and you. Between all these people and all your metal men. And this line, it’s a magic line

CYBERLEADER: Magic is not logical

THE DOCTOR: I know – isn’t it great? Because I’ll tell you what. All these people on this ship are now, officially, under the protection of the magic line. Now, I’ll be honest, these guys in here are a bit annoying. They keep having their own opinions, and sometimes they take turns talking instead of me, which is just boring for everyone. But facts are facts, they’re behind the magic line, and that’s the way it is now. And to be clear, so we all understand the deal here, if any of your handle-heads happens to cross the magic line, even by accident, do you know what will happen to you then?

CYBERLEADER: What will happen?

THE DOCTOR: Me

 

3. The Doctor and a little boy. They’re sitting in the little boy’s bedroom.

THE DOCTOR:

Does everyone tell you it’s going to be all right? 

LITTLE BOY: Yes. 

THE DOCTOR: Do you believe them? 

LITTLE BOY: No

THE DOCTOR: Good man. Tell me what happens when the lights go out. 

LITTLE BOY: No.

THE DOCTOR: Because you’re scared? (Silence) Because you think I won’t believe you. Because you think I’ll tell you everything’s fine, when you know it isn’t, and leave you alone like all the other grown-ups?

LITTLE BOY:… yes.

THE DOCTOR: Look at me. Am I grown up? 

LITTLE BOY: Yes.

THE DOCTOR: Good! You’re the very first person I’ve fooled. Look, what if I promise I won’t tell you it’s okay. What if I just listen, and then try my best to help, and never tell you that I know better. How about that?

LITTLE BOY: …okay.

THE DOCTOR: Okay. So. You turn the lights out -then what?

LITTLE BOY: The room… changes. In the dark. 

THE DOCTOR: You mean the room is different when you can’t see it. 

LITTLE BOY: Yes. 

THE DOCTOR: Every time? 

LITTLE BOY: Yes. 

THE DOCTOR: Different how? 

LITTLE BOY: It’s wet. When 1 touch the walls, they’re all wet.

THE DOCTOR: Like damp. Like water running

down them? 

LITTLE BOY: No. Wet like a mouth."

 

So start memorizing these scenes and see if you can become the 12th Doctor!
