Richard lands the episode's most quotable analytical point. Songs of Praise, Fake or Fortune, Mastermind — the BBC has tendered all of these, and every single one has gone on to multiple series. There is no precedent for a BBC tender killing a show. He acknowledges the financial reality: without Disney's money, Doctor Who will need to be cheaper, but that's achievable — the show has always been built on emotion and storyline rather than CGI. Production companies may bring in foreign investment and co-production partners to make the budget work. The Cardiff production base is almost certain to remain. Doctor Who's long-term future is, in Richard's assessment, secure and positive.
With Disney's money gone, Doctor Who has to be made cheaper. Richard Osman has solutions: Ross Kemp as Doctor Who, just sitting in the TARDIS waiting for it to get fixed. Or 'Junior Doctor Doctor Who', where he's on strike and catching up on sleep. Or Hoot Crowd, where the Doctor runs an owl sanctuary.
