THE REVEAL - A Peehs In Sheep's Clothing - DOCTOR WHO

aaronjennings

Welcome, Whovians and non-Whovians alike, to the first edition of ‘A Peehs in Sheep’s Clothing’

A quick reminder of the rules:
- Nine questions will be scored as a traditional Sheep, with the most popular answers getting the most points
- However, the four questions with the highest Sheep will have all of their scores inverted, with the least-popular answers getting the most points instead
- Whoever has the highest number of points at the end will be declared the winner

Hoping a little knowledge goes a long way in this game - I've not watched a lot of Dr Who so didn't know much!

Getting my excuses in early. I thought this was the opposite of what it is

Also Starring LeVar Burton

My whole tactic for this was to just pick my favourites, so I'm hoping that pays off

Why would a sheep wear peehs' clothes?!

To Sheep or not to sheep. THAT is the question!

I'm going to be honest, I thought of the name of the game before I figured out what the rules would be :P

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to avoid the obvious answers
Knowing they may be reversed. To die—to sheep

haha love it EN

1. Name an actor or actress to play The Doctor from 1963-2004

aaronjennings

Seven obvious answers to choose from here, but six people went for Tom Baker, the most popular Doctor of the original run…



…Unfortunately he proves to be too popular, and with 6 being one of the four-highest Sheep, we get an early score inversion. LeVar, Gru and Reberetta become the highest beneficiaries

I think that went OK... but don't really know

Scores are confusing. Kudos to AJ for figuring it out.

2. Name an actor or actress to play The Doctor from 2005-present

aaronjennings

Five obvious choices here, more if you decided to get a bit more creative. But, what’s that I see…?



Oh dear. Yes, we have another massive Sheep, as Matt Smith also proves too popular for his own good. Necrina and Homer receive a massive 8 points, with Khalessi and Reberetta also picking up good points

Interestingly, over the last two questions, the first and most recent Doctors were the only ones not chosen

Guessing that's not a direct quote from the show, but I like the gif!

Reberetta

Who is Necrina? Is that Necro's drag persona?

3. Name an actor or actress to play The Master

:pac:


Necrina is Necro's better half


:pac:

aaronjennings

He was only the Master for about five minutes, but he made a lasting impression, as Sir Derek Jacobi picks up the most votes. How many votes, I hear you ask? Oh no, not again…

Yes, out of the four score reversals in this game, THREE of them take place in the first three questions

#PrayForANormalSheepQuestion

Niska, Necro and Collie benefit by going for the least-popular answers, including the most-recent Master

It seems I'm doing well. It probably won't last, but stranger things have happened.

Phew, a regular Sheep question - finally. And like London buses, wait for one and then two show up at once, as Sarah-Jane and K9 share top billing



Ace, ironically, is herself an ace

Homer holds on to first place, but there are plenty of people right on his heels. Surely he can’t win a game about a show he’s never seen before. Right…?

Too young (or old?) and too heterosexual.

The four questions with the highest Sheep have their scores reversed

Yeah Old Man, that is correct!

Amy and Clara would be more my age.

Just checked and I was much too young. That's a worrying memory...

aaronjennings

Lots of choices here, as is evident by the spread of ten different answers. And ironically, the Bad Wolf is a Sheep, as Rose Tyler, the first companion of the show’s revival, attracts the most votes



And fortunately for the people who chose her, 5 is not high enough to trigger a score reversal

Point of Information, because of the Alphabet, my name should be above Necro's on the leaderboard...

You can raise your complaint with whoever made the Sheepulator app

The next four questions all relate to episode and story titles

I have grouped episodes together if they are part of the same story. I have also grouped together instances where one person has named a story, and another person has named an episode within that story

6. Name an episode or story in which the Daleks appear

Also Starring LeVar Burton

So many choices here, but the most popular answer ends up being Genesis of the Daleks, one of the best-regarded stories in the shows history, including the debut of Davros, creator of the Daleks

I was going to opt for Genesis Of The Daleks; a cracking episode where the Daleks form a band with Phil Collins.
