Except Q was Juvenile ... while it appears this Toymaker is Malicious in every way.

I watched the Celestial Toymaker as a 10 year old, scared the life out of me. Michael Gough saying "make your move, Doctor. Make your last move". Only Gough could deliver that line in quite that chilling way. Still remember it 57 years later. NPH has a huge burden, living up to that. Gough was hugely underrated, playing, among scores of great performances, both the Toymaker and Alfred Pennyworth and making those polar opposite roles equally convincing and memorable. So memorable that a character he created 57 years ago is being revived for the 60th anniversary

My favourite Toymaker story is Magic Mousetrap. It's absolutely spine chilling.

Very interesting summary of the extended story. I vividly recall watching the original story on TV, and being terrified that they would choose the "wrong" Tardis. One of the games involved choosing the real Tardis from a set of replicas, with the only clue being that their dimensional ratio's were slightly off! I always thought that the show missed an opportunity to reintroduce the Toymaker during Pertwee's run, and again during Mcoy's tenure. There may be more but these are the two that struck me at the time. Firstly the main villain in Carnival of Monsters, portrayed as a bumbling showman, could easily have been slightly reworked to be a manifestation of the Toymaker, with his malfunctioning machine holding the monsters being revealed as one of his collapsing Toyrooms. Secondly in the Circus in Greatest Show in the Galaxy the plot could easily have been tweaked to reveal a link between the God's of Ragnarok and the Toymaker, but these are both roads not taken so l look forward to this long overdue reappearance.

I just watched it, watching the Loose Cannon recreations for the first three episodes. I liked it.

This is well done, and ordered. I've consumed as a consumer all those stories mentioned except the comic, but I didn't know the order from the Toymaker's perspective. I also don't remember the Magic Mousetrap, though I know I have it, I'll have to relisten. The story that I love most is Divided Loyalties. My asbsolute dream would be a flashback scene with someone playing a young Hartnell with Rallon and Millenia meeting him as Tennant narrates to Donna their first meeting.

The Toymaker is Q meets Mister Mxyzptlk. He has the near limitless power of both. He has Q's genius. He has Mxyzptlk's obsessive focus on the one who's defeated him. Much like Mxyzptlk is bound to the ability to banish him by getting him to say his own name backwards, Toymaker is bound by the rules of games, he can't cheat and has to play fairly. He's also got the quirkiness of Mister Mxyzptlk but tempered with the gravitas and almost regal sense of knowing he's the most powerful being in the room of Q.

I like to imagine that when The Doctor saw very nicely dress man in the streets clearly enjoying the chaos a little too much, that he had to have thought "Wait... is that the Master...? Nah, can't be I'd know... is it?"

Ok, my theory is that the Toymaker arrived when Jodie's regen happened, and put the ILLUSION that the Doctor is Tennant, aka 14. Donna is part of the illusion. When the Doctor defeats him, he wakes up as Ncuti, which explains Ncuti's "Somebody tell me what the hell is going on here". Just a theory.....😊

"They"? Surely it's an "It" as it an element of the universe.

Toying with time and realities of the timelines of the origins of the doctors regeneration from the first doctor to the events of the day of the doctor in a nano timeline of every doctors life's. Toymaker echoes his powers through time and time again? There's been a shadow over the doctors past involvement, and his memories were changed by a single certain powerful figure from the outset of the return of the 9th doctor or 10th. There's been some mysterious forces at work leading the doctor to this moment, and the doctor hasn't released a thing about it, but sometimes there's something he notices in the corner of his eye, then it's disappears a split second? This is the Toymaker his managed to hold of the distortion of reality with ease for now and then? One question is, who is the real face between the realities of this Toymaker? Is he related to the doctor as it could be said he might be the father of time and the doctors father? Or is he the first time lord the creator of the time lords a possible answer to be revealed?*

(Can’t think of his name or the show sorry) I have a vague memory or hearing that that was an old version but I would guess it wasn’t used in the US since maybe the 50’s except maybe in the south. I was raised in California which tends to be more progressive. Anyway I have also never heard of celestial being a racial slur either. I’m not saying these things don’t exist.

Have you been deliberately trying to not notice the n-word your entire life or something? As to the word Celestial, it's a racial slur of Californian origin, your home state invented it! Back when the Chinese were coming to America before the Chinese Exclusion Act, they called their homeland "The Celestial Empire", and Californians quickly took to referring to all Asian people as "Celestials". Honestly, it was only in heavy use in California, and a bit in the UK. Fallen out of style now, but in the 1960s older people were still using it and there were still businesses that used the word in their names. "Common" is an interesting question here. Californians have probably made more progress than most American states, it's true, but racial slurs are still common today even in California. If you don't notice them I'd say that's more to do with you choosing to not notice it that them not being used.

I hope they don't screw him up. The Celestial Toymaker is my favourite from Doctor Who. Pls don't shovel LGBTQ nonsense into it. Jodie's series failed because of it. Personally though, I don't see the original toymaker outfit as racist. I just see an Alien being seeing an earthly outfit, and wearing it simply because he likes the look. (The Doctor does the same. Which is why some of his outfits look very garish. Like John Pertwee or Colin Baker for example.) If we constantly worry about people becoming offended about something so little like an outfit, then how can we ever progress. You need to take risks sometimes to create great things.
