| Hallo there, I'm the Bus. I'm 18, off at college doing many English and Drama related things. I generally try to be entertaining and amusing in my writing, so most of these stories are comedies, and often dialogue heavy. However, I like to try my hand at more serious affairs as well when the fancy takes me. My favourite Doctor is the first one, because he's just so damn entertaning. |

Season 17 with the Secretive Bus! by The Secretive Bus [Reviews - 1]
Since I've written so many of these "smashing" tales with the 4th Doctor, Romana and K9 (not that they wrote them with me, rather they're stories that feature said characters, though the reverse has also been true on occasion) I've decided to chuck them all into a mini series thingy. Well, it's something to do, isn't it? So have a gander at my own little continuing tribute to the best era of "Doctor Who".

"Deja vu?" "Possibly." "Oh don't be pedantic!" "Fine, I'll go home then." by The Secretive Bus [Reviews - 7]
The eight Doctors are in a sticky wicket, chaps and chapettes: they're all trapped in a room that contains a bomb set to go off in 30 minutes, and there's Krotons, Sontarans and Gundan Robots guarding the doors. Their fate is sealed, surely? But then, the man McGann has a plan! He's just realised that, since all his previous lives are in the room, he must have seen the situation played out to it's conclusion several times before.

Doctor Oho by The Secretive Bus [Reviews - 6]
Doctor Oho is my attempt at writing a super-surreal story where stuff happens because I want to. It has 14 Doctors, lots of companions and is hopefully hilarious. But it probably won't be. Damn you! There's so many characters, there's not enough space to fit them all in in the summary box! And every chapter will have at least one reference to "The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin."

The Awfully Arduous Affair by The Secretive Bus [Reviews - 17]
The Doctor's a tall, friendly chap with impeccable manners and good taste; Calapine is a Time Lady with a razor sharp sense of irony; and Sunny is an Earth girl who adapts herself to any situation regardless of plot contrivance. Their mission, should they choose to acknowledge it, concerns some rather startlingly grizzly occurences happening nonchalantly in a bemusing manner in a small English town. Yes, there is a plot to this, y'know.

The Times and Lives of Donald Hickerty by The Secretive Bus [Reviews - 10]
A fine old English comedy, in which a highly strung Doctor, travelling with a paranoid Time Lady and an irritatingly up-beat American gal, lands in the grounds of a gorgeous mansion in the year 1920, and gets involved in a mysterious and thrilling tale of missing maids, dubious cads, buttered scones, and a garden gnome called "Medley". High drama, low romance, a lashing of puns, and a bloke who lives in a giant boot. Each chapter even comes complete with an illustration. Gosh! What a lovely package. And it's been finished, too!
