| 'Don't make me choose' |
In which I choose, fresh from the broadcast of 'The Power of the Doctor', the top ten stories from Chris Chibnall's time as showrunner.
There's a lot of obvious jokes here - 'You found 10?', 'This'll be a short article' etc. - but thing is I did find ten and it was actually so long Den of Geek had to edit it down. Finding a top ten was harder here than in any of the other articles in this series. For RTD, Moffat, the Sixties, Seventies and Eighties...I had a longlist that I whittled down. For this I had a longlist of eight stories, and then I got rid of one on rewatch. I considered including the Thirteenth Doctor Mr Men book and that lockdown video Jodie Whittaker recorded, but I was trying to be as positive as possible and felt including them would be against the format of the articles and overly harsh.
Then I put 'Kerblam!' in because I felt like I should represent the cynical grimdark aspect of the era and frankly it's the only one of those stories that is actually interesting to rewatch. So to be honest that was probably harsher.
