We've been talking about starting another Doctor Who-ish thread, and although I like games I'm not a big ABC, This or That or Survivor game fan. Like the Doctor, I like to exercise my brain. But rather than "recreational mathematics", I thought we should try a bit of trivia.

This will work sort of like a scattergory game, but a bit more general: rather than requiring 5 or 10 answers, the answer can be as simple as a single response answered by one person, or as complicated as a 10 part response that can be answered by up to 10 people.

Whoever completes the answer gets to ask the next question. If they forget, the next person to post should ask the next question. The theme of this game is Doctor Who, but it also includes the spinoffs and extended universe: Torchwood, Sarah Jane, audio, books, K-9 and Company, etc. are all fair game.

Here's the first question:

Name three famous historical people the Doctor has met

Camibra

Thanks for starting this thread Rachel also for starting it with an easy question.

1. Queen Victoria.

Raonaild

I'll try to restrain myself, for now

Parallax

2. Shakespeare.

Raonaild

To keep this going, I'll complete my own question

3. Charles Dickens

Question: What does the name TARDIS stand for?

Camibra

Time And Relative Dimensions In Space.

I did not look it up on Google either btw *feels proud*

Someone else can ask a trivia question, I am stumped.

Don't see why not.


For some reason i can't bold the question

Raonaild

2) Nyssa
3) Adric
4) Turlough
5) Romana

What alien set up shop under the London Eye in the episode Rose?

and as a bonus question

Which Doctor was the first to encounter these aliens?

Raonaild

Guess that one was too hard, so I will answer my own question:

The Nestene Consciousness and its army of Autons were living under the London Eye. It was the Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) who first encountered them in his first serial, Spearhead from Space.
