A Doctor Who Spinoff - Can the Paternoster Gang Join the Action?
Fans are buzzing about the new Doctor Who Spinoff series. However, some have questioned how closely connected it will be to the original series! The upcoming Doctor Who Spinoff Series, known as "The War Between the Land and the Sea," is focusing on the Doctor Who Sea Devils.
Can We See the Paternoster Gang in This Spinoff?
This Doctor Who Spinoff promises exciting new stories but has some fans wondering, what if we had some recurring characters to bring it back to familiar ground? Some believe that bringing the Doctor Who Paternoster Gang into the series would be an excellent addition! It would even bring a great connection back to Doctor Who Classic Who fans, and show off a dynamic from the era of Doctor Who Matt Smith and Doctor Who Eleventh Doctor.
What is the Paternoster Gang?
The Doctor Who Paternoster Gang are composed of:
- Madame Vastra (a Silurian, a creature from an ancient era of Earth's history who lived in Doctor Who Victorian London).
- Jenny Flint (her lover and also an important character within Doctor Who Victorian London).
- Strax (their Sontaran Butler).
How Can the Paternoster Gang Connect to the Spinoff?
Even though the Doctor Who Spinoff is set in the modern day, it isn't a real barrier! Doctor Who is about time travel. The Paternoster Gang can jump from era to era using Doctor Who Alien Tech! Even more, the Doctor could be involved in transporting the group forward to help UNIT deal with the current threats from the Sea Devils.
Why Are the Paternoster Gang So Popular?
Since being introduced to the series, the Paternoster Gang has garnered lots of respect among fans. But one issue, they are currently set in Victorian London. If you are not aware of their history in Doctor Who, they are known for adventures involving the Time Lord, a trip through Doctor Who Time Travel or navigating through other historical events! Their impact on Doctor Who Modern Day events can't be overlooked!
Could The War Between The Land and the Sea Become Another Great Doctor Who Spinoff Series?
If we think about some of the successful series like Doctor Who UNIT or Doctor Who Torchwood, you can see how these spin-offs have introduced new characters to the Doctor Who universe. A Doctor Who Sea Devils Spinoff with Doctor Who Alien and new technology like the Sea Devils could be very interesting for fans of the original series.
Who Could Be The Star Of The Spinoff?
Given that Doctor Who New Era started with Doctor Who Ncuti Gatwa, and has embraced connections with the past, it makes sense to think of adding the Paternoster Gang in.
