Many inside Second Life have commented on what they've heard of our series so far and the one question that has arisen more then anyother is "Are you going to feature the Daleks?" The answer is YES.
For arguments sake, the fate of every character in the final episodes will be explained. The one question on everyones lips when it comes to Doctor Who is: Why does the Doctor always fight his enemies on Earth? What is so special about the Earth? TLM are going to attempt to explain this question (obv to some degree its just a fan film) so the answer might not be exactly correct.
The episode was written not so long ago but is going through some changes currently until the final draft will be submitted. The Daleks as they're the most common enermy for the Doctor & the Time Lords seemed right to have them in the final stories.
Inside Second Life is a beautiful Gallifreyan sim called New Gallifrey. We've tried to get this sim to be featured in our series without having someone just pop back in time and land there, as we know its gone due to the time war and the events of The End of Time Part 2. So how will we return to Gallifrey? Just wait and see :)
The current episode title is known as "The History of the Time Lords" but this might change. This episode is not the final episode of the series, this is what you could call "the Beginning of the End"

New Who Episode Idea
Like many Doctor Who stories from the new series and some classic, the stories are predictable. We all know the Doctor will win, the companion will survive in some shape or form, and the monster will either be defeated or run away vowing to return in some other episode in the near future.
This whole idea of having an event so massive an so climactic, to then have one ship or person "fall through time" to another point in the past to only start again not only messes with the mind of Whovians and continuaty experts, but is also a weak idea for future story telling. So what will make Twine Light Media's Doctor Who any different you ask? The answer is simple....
we have a beginning, middle and end to the overall story of Doctor Who. Each episode will stand alone, but if you were to watch each episode in order from beginning to end the overall story would lets say...."speak for itself".
We don't have any of this "i fell through time on my own" crap no sir we don't! The origins of these characters are all explained weither they've time travelled to that point in time or even placed there by the player of the "game" is all to be revealed. Time is f**ked.
The fact the 11th canon Doctor has under unknown reasons (as the series has just started again) regenerated into the non canon 12th incarnation and then only to under apparent violent and mysterious circumstances to become the 13th Doctor we know in the SL series is lets say "all part of a bigger plan by someone bigger then the Doctor". If you imagine each episode has its own story, characters and setting the one thing that remains constant is the Doctor as well as his TARDIS. So, imagine a chess board and a player at either side of that board playing against one another, the pawns are the characters in the episode but the king is the Doctor and the other is the Master (black & white) would that mean the Master is bad and the Doctor is good? Not really. What happens when a player hits check-mate? Who are the players of the chess game we speak of? Could it be Rassilon in all his mighty power? Could it be Omega planning a revenge escape from his anti matter prison? Could elements of both these characters that we've come to love & hate all these years really be leading to something much bigger then themselves? What if the Doctor was ment to meet himself? Wat if the Doctor was ment to regenerate? Wat if the Doctor is a fixed point in time himself and he can't undo anything he has done or even going to do?
The answers are these. Doctor Who Second Life is more then a bunch of fans creating yet another type of story on the web in honor of their hero. But a group of talented writers and storytellers that combined prove to the world that anyone can write a great story with the right elements. The notion that every action has a reaction and that dropping a large bolder into a river can change its course is somehting that has always been a part of Doctor Who since it started. The fact that our new show will actually challange the audience into guessing what is happening or going to happen.
Each episode won't have its questions answered, but will in the long run. RTD stories had no point to them and were always left unanswered. The main episodes for this were Tennants last "The End of Time parts 1 & 2". But anyway...I truly believe Doctor Who second Life will reshape the fan community in terms of Who type stories.

A Tear in Time
Filming began last week for episode 3, A Tear in Time. The episode which featured 2 famous fan film Doctors Ryan Trallis & Julian Bane should be released in the late summer of 2010.
Scenes that have been shot include the TARDIS skipping inside itself and the final scene. The script has been re rendered and added more mythological mystery to our Doctor Who show which includes the mysterious worm holes that have appeared in The Angel and will do in Treasure Cove. The nature of the worm holes won't be explained until towards the end of the show, but strong suggestions will arise in episode 3 when the Smoke Monster from the hit ABC Tv Drama LOST comes through and scans all 3 Doctors.
I am a personal huge fan of LOST and its become my inspiration to write and direct my own series. LOST will feature heavy in our Doctor Who such as the Monster and the numbers. The Island will also be visited. Mainly because of the builds that exist in Second Life but also because LOST has never really been shown in any fan film productions of this nature. People have bade parody's and their own LOST series kind of, but never crossed with a TV show like Doctor Who.
Julian Bane is really excited to be joining Twine Light Media and their campain to create masterpieces of machinima inside the virtual world.
Also a mysterious women appears in the TARDIS and talks to the Docor (my doctor) about events that will happen and that have happened. Strong connections to his mysterious 12th Incarnation are revealed, because the 13th doesn't know how or why he regerenated and doesn't remember his 12th life.
A Tear in Time featuring Ryan, Kerian & Julian will hopefully be broadcast late July 2010.
