BBC’s Doctor Who is a big old ball of timey wimey things, and it can get difficult to keep up with all the various plot lines and character arcs that run through whole seasons and even individual episodes. In nearly sixty years, various showrunners and writers have come and gone from the sets of the legendary series, not to mention the various actors who play the Doctor after each regeneration.

In the complexity of time streams and other wibbly wobbly stuff, certain stories get a great introduction to the audience, but are forgotten or dropped by writers sometime down the line. It’s a pity because so many of these have the potential for spinoffs and several-part episodes, but the good news is that the nature of Doctor Who always gives hope that these forgotten arcs may be revived at some point.
8 The Silurian Pact
Tumblr media
The Doctor protects planet Earth, no matter what. So, when he brokers a deal with aliens instead of driving them away, it is a big deal. In season 5, two episodes showed a giant, sleeping Silurian colony under the Earth. In ‘The Hungry Earth’ and ‘Cold Blood’, the Silurians wanted a fair share of the planet above the surface, which would have surely caused war between them and the humans.
The Doctor then made a pact with the civilization that they will go back into hibernation for a thousand years, and upon the end of their slumber, they will share the Earth equally with the humans. It would have been interesting to see how the planetary cohabitation would have played out, but audiences got nothing after the two-parter episode of Doctor Who.
7 The Face Of Boe
Tumblr media
The noble Boekind played a huge part in Doctor Who — He was present in several episodes, the most notable one being ‘Gridlock’ where he sacrifices his own life to save the city of New New York. In ‘The Last of the Time Lords’, Jack unwittingly revealed his own future, when he mentioned his nickname “the face of Boe” to Martha and the Tenth Doctor.

Since then, theories have abounded on how the immortal Jack Harkness became a large head, and if he was immortal then how did he die in ‘Gridlock’? The connection was meant as a joke, but has been acknowledged by the actors, producers, and writers too. What remains is how and when Jack transforms into the Boekind.
6 Clara And Me’s Adventures
Tumblr media
After Clara’s death in season 9, the Doctor pulled her out of her time stream just moments before the fact, which meant that she technically survived. The wise Clara Oswald then took off with a TARDIS with her buddy Ashildr/Me, who had been rendered immortal by the Doctor and his Mire repair kit.
The show didn’t really bother following up on the other TARDIS flying around the universe with Clara and Me in it, nor was there a further mention of their adventures. Theoretically, Clara would also have to re-enter the timestream where she died, which would leave Me all alone in a very potent machine. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.
5 The Alliance Of The Big Bads
Tumblr media
In his uncountable years of time travel, the Doctor made some big enemies, the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Sontarans, the Judoon, and the Autons being some of them. In season 5, all the bad guys rallied together to defeat their greatest enemy, and they even succeeded to an extent: The Doctor was locked away in the Pandorica.
However, these villains never thought of teaming up again to bring down their biggest foe ever again, which would seem to be an obvious course of action for all these groups wanting to do away with The Doctor.
4 The Sandman’s Cliffhanger
Tumblr media
Season 9 saw the formidable Sandmen, deadly foes made from the sleep dust in humans’ eyes in a Morpheus pod. Rassmussen, the creator of Morpheus himself was a Sandman, who edited footage and was ready to broadcast it to the whole universe, thereby turning them into Sandmen too.

The episode ended with Rassmussen getting ready to do the deed, but then there was no follow up. One can only imagine that the Twelfth Doctor stopped him behind the scenes, because viewers saw none of it.
3 The Reapers
Tumblr media
Meddling with time is essentially what Doctor Who is about, which justifies the large number of historical episodes. But when Billie Piper’s Rose changed a fixed point in time by saving her father from a car accident, massive creatures called the Reapers descended upon the town, attacking citizens at random.
There was nothing wrong with the premise in general, but these creatures, who were likened to bacteria gathering around a time wound, never returned again. With the sheer number of times the Doctor and his companions have changed huge, historical events, it’s strange that the Reapers didn’t show up to at least one of those occasions.
2 Rose And Meta-Crisis Ten’s Life
Tumblr media
In season 4 of Doctor Who, viewers saw the sad but iconic scene where the Tenth Doctor is left heartbroken because Rose needs to return to her own universe, where the Meta-Crisis clone of him awaits her. At least Rose had her happy ending with a version of the Doctor, but so little is known about her life with Ten’s clone in her alternate universe.
In a deleted scene, the Doctor hands a piece of the TARDIS to his clone and permits him to grow his own, so its entirely possible that Rose and her Doctor are out there, flying around in their TARDIS and continuing their timey wimey adventures, which the audience may never know about.
1 The Doctor’s Daughter
Tumblr media
Everything about Jenny, the Doctor’s daughter, was primed for a spinoff or at least an appearance in later episodes, but she only made it to one single episode, never to be heard from again. It may have seemed like a stretch, but fans were hoping with River Song’s drawn out plot point, Jenny may get a resurgence too.
After her death on Messaline, Donna and the Doctor leave, but Jenny suddenly comes back to life and flies off into the universe for her own adventures. It’s odd that the Doctor never found out about her survival, or even bothered looking for her.
