Doctor Who: New Coda for the Ponds

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this fanfic series.

Dear Dad,

This is the difficult bit. If I got this right, you’re reading this a week after we left in the TARDIS. The thing is, we’re not coming back. We’re alive and well; stuck in New York, 50 years before I was born. I can’t come home again, I won’t ever see you again and that breaks my heart. I’m so sorry, Dad. I thought about this for years and I realised, this is what I could do, I could write you a letter, tell you everything about how we lived, about how, despite it all, we were happy. But before I do, I need you to know, you are the best dad any son could have had. And for all the times I drove you mad and you drove me mad, all the times I snapped at you..I’m sorry. I miss everything about you, especially our awkward hugs. I bought a trough, we have a small yard, a garden. But one more important bit of business, the man who delivered the letter, Anthony.. be nice to him ‘cause his your grandson. We finally adopted in 1946: Anthony Brian Williams. He can tell you everything, he’ll have the family albums and I realise having a grandson who’s older than you is so far beyond weird but I’m sorry.

I love you, Dad. I miss you.
Love, Rory.
coda

The BBC released this unfilmed coda by Chris Chibnall. I still think the Ponds will meet Captain Jack while he was in the past. He could save them.
