Reply To: The Official Doctor Who Thread: Born To Save The Universe

There’s a really interesting theory I was talking about with @runaroundmacy and @ranishapitts about Missy’s reform. Basically, Missy is pre-Simm Master; she regenerates into him and the animosity SimmMaster feels for the Doctor is based on whatever happens these next two episodes.

That would be neat, but wouldn’t it break continuity? Professor Yana was Simm Master’s “preincarnation”, and Yana and Chan-Tho worked together long enough to develop a close friendship (at least from her point of view). Or do you mean that Missy regenerates into Yana?

Simm Master in the preview has the classic Master beard, which I don’t think he ever wore during the Tennant years. He could be putting on a favourite old face, like the Doctor did as the Curator.
