OK, here is my take on how the 11th Doctor should depart the series. My aim is to capture his eccentricity while at the same time conveying a sense of dread:
The 11th Doctor and Clara have escaped from Trenzalore, pursued by the Silence. The TARDIS lands in Colchester, in Castle Park
The Doctor We've done it. We've escaped. Yippee, Zipperdeedoodah, wahay .. and all that
Clara Oh do grow up. Where are we?
The Doctor I don't know. I'd know if I'd opened the door. But I havent not yet. So I don't. Not knowing has a sort of coolness about it.
Clara What are you babbling on about.
The Doctor What am I blabbering on about. Hmm. Blabbering on about what am I. Am I blabbering on about what.
Clara Oh bloody grow up.
Clara opens the TARDIS door and strides out, followed by the Doctor
The Doctor Hey I'd know that castle anywhere. Its Colchester. Yay! Castles are cool. Norman castles are super cool.
Clara I'm not interested in Norman castles.
The Doctor You're not interested in anything. Oh well. I was rather hoping we'd landed in Soho as I fancy a bit of this and that in some of the interesting clubs there. But this will have to do.
Clara But what are we going to do here?
Suddenly she sees a group of Silence creatures in front of her:
Clara Eeeeek its the Silence.
The Doctor Run!
They run through castle park and out towards the High Street
The Doctor We must have seen the Silence as we're running. I've forgotten them but I can't think of any other reason I'd be running, unless it was because I was desperate for a dump and running for the public bogs. But I'm not.
Clara And you don't know where the public bogs are in Colchester.
The Doctor Exactly.
They ran down the High Street and dived into MacDonalds. It was full of youths with glazed eyes and loud women screaming at their children. The Doctor grinned at a woman in the queue and fiddled with his bowtie
Woman *To the Doctor* Ere mate, what you gawking at?
The Doctor Gawking? I like gawking. Gawking is cool.
Woman You taking the piss?
The Doctor No I'm running from aliens. However I promise that I'm not running for the bog.
Suddenly everyone in the MacDonalds started to fade and change into.......
.......... Zygons
The Doctor Oh gawd its the Zygons again *aside to the camera* Moffat must be running out of ideas *canned audience laughter at the in-joke*.
The Doctor and Clara run outside and dive into the next shop, a branch of Ann Summers
The Doctor Hey this is more like it. You could do with purchasing some of this stuff.
Clara I am not dressing in slinky underwear in that TARDIS so you can leer at me and drool.
The Doctor Oh come on. Live a little. Drooling is cool.
Clara kicks the Doctor in the shins and they run out again, the Doctor hopping.
The Doctor Ow that hurt.
As the Doctor hopped onto the pavement he put a foot wrong, tripped over into the road and a white van ran over him.
The Doctor Ahhhh..... its over. Brought to an end by Essex Man in a white van. Ho hum. Such are the tragedies of life.
Before a startled Colchester public he regenerated into......... Peter Capaldi's 12th Doctor!
