The Final Script (comic story)

The Final Script was a three-page comic story in the style of their Doctor Who? strips, printed in Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett's The Doctor Who Fun Book. It posited the end of the Doctor's adventures at a point during the Sixth Doctor's tenure.
== Summary ==
The Sixth Doctor boasts to Mel that he has finally defeated all the monsters in the universe. This is a curse in disguise, as it soon becomes apparent that the Doctor has not the faintest idea what to do with his life now.
== Characters ==
* Sixth Doctor
* Melanie Bush
== Worldbuilding ==
* The Doctor keeps a score card of all the monsters he has successfully and conclusively defeated, which include the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Ice Warriors, the Yeti, the Ogrons, Davros, the Silurians, the Snipes, the Sontarans, the Axons, Azal, Bok, Omega, the giant maggots, Roberta Tovey, the Wirrn, the Zygons and Sil.
* The Doctor ends up asking for a pack of cards to alleviate the boredom.
* Mel is reading The Doctor Who Fun Book.
== Notes ==
* Among the classic Doctor Who monsters, two unlikely entries are worked in: Roberta Tovey (who played Susan in and , two films whose infamy in the trad Doctor Who fandom explains her status as a nemesis of the televised Doctor in this parody) and the Snipes, a species featured in The Universe Marathon, a game included earlier in The Doctor Who Fun Book.
* The Doctor growing almost instantly restless when forced to sit still and not defeat any monsters in particular is a gag which would later be featured in the TV series proper in the Eleventh Doctor episode .
