The [[Seventh Doctor]] once met a '''future version of himself''' at [[Bonjaxx]]'s birthday party on [[Maruthea]]. It was unclear from what point in the future this incarnation originated.

This version of the Doctor was certainly based upon [[Nicholas Briggs]]' physique. In a [[2000]] interview, however, Briggs failed to dismiss his interviewer's assertion that it was also a representation of the Doctor he played in the [[fanon]] [[Audio Visuals]] productions that were more-or-less contemporaneous with ''Party Animals''.<ref>[http://www.justyce.org/nick-briggs-03-april-2000.html Nick Briggs interview, 3 April 2000]</ref> Still, he made no positive assertion in that interview that the two Doctors were the same. And there is really very little in the actual body of the comic to suggest that the "Briggs Doctor" is anything more than just an unspecified future version of the Doctor. In any event, the Audio Visuals productions are outside the scope of this wiki.

The only properly licensed ''Doctor Who'' fiction that even marginally ties into this character is ''[[Wormwood (comic story)|Wormwood]]'', a [[DWM]] comic story from [[1998]]. There, the [[Eighth Doctor]] appears to [[regenerate]], but really his "new self" is actually [[Shayde]] in disguise. That disguise is someone who looks strikingly like the ''Party Animals'' Doctor, down to the fact that he carries a [[toothbrush]] in his breast pocket.

It is considerably unclear what this means. Perhaps Shayde and the Eighth Doctor created this new persona on the basis of the Seventh Doctor's experience in ''Party Animals''. Maybe the "Shayde Doctor" had time to sneak away for a bit, pick up someone named Ria, and pop back in time to meet the Seventh Doctor. Or maybe there's no connection at all. All that's certain is that neither narrative gives us anything clear to connect these two Nick Briggs-based Doctors.

When Shayde posed as the Eighth Doctor and "regenerated" as part of a scheme to defeat the Threshold, the new incarnation wore similar clothes and kept a toothbrush in his breast pocket. (COMIC: Wormwood)

Behind the scenes

  • This incarnation of the Doctor and his companion Ria originated in the fan Audio Visuals productions that were more-or-less contemporaneous with Party Animals[1][2], and thus has the likeness of Nicholas Briggs, who portrayed that Doctor. As unlicensed productions, the Audio Visuals and its Doctor are outside the scope of this wiki. However, Briggs would go on to briefly portray unnumbered incarnations of the Doctor in miscellaneous other audioplays, with no clear links with his previous, unofficial "Doctor" character(s).
