Imagining Time Travel with Bill and Ted Meeting the Doctor

Every now and then, a silly question comes along that makes you smile. This is one of them. If Bill and Ted from Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure and The TARDIS of Doctor Who Time Lord Peter Capaldi were to meet, it surely would be an eventful and hilariously chaotic scenario.

Which version of the Doctor would you imagine responding to their iconic lines and greetings? Would the highly sarcastic War Doctor have a less favorable opinion compared to the charismatic and more modern Capaldi? Let’s dive into the dynamic possibilities of this imaginary crossover.

Which Dr., Which Bill, and Which Ted?

Let’s consider the various possibilities of which Doctor might remark on the duo's antics and reactions. Here are some potential scenarios:

War Doctor: Given his cynical and weary nature, the War Doctor might raise an eyebrow at Bill and Ted’s antics. “What’s that, time-travelers in that!” he might say, mixed with a hint of impatience. “Oh aren’t you two up to mischief then!” he could follow with, emphasizing his muted, menacing tone. “Time travel is a serious thing and not to be given to amateurs.”

Peter Capaldi: The Capaldi Doctor, known for his quippy remarks and occasional bluntness, would likely find Bill and Ted’s actions amusing. His response might range from a nod and a sardonic remark like, “Jellybaby, oh splendid chameleon adaptation eh.” or “Not more quarrelling companions! Whatever next.”

Other Doctors: Depending on the regeneration, the response could vary. Some might view the trio as a nuisance, while others might offer to teach them the ropes of time travel. “Stand aside while I fix your blunders!” might be said by a more protective version of the Doctor, who took his time-traveler counterpart seriously.

Billy: “Awesome Dude!” – This would likely be a favorite response from Bill and Ted to any Doctor who expresses appreciation for their antics.

Overall: “Oh that’s just what this planet needs two more hairless apes with their hands on a time machine!” – Familiar gibberish mixed with cheeky recognition from Bill and Ted, showing their confidence and familiarity with time travel.
