Maybe a bit long, yes :P Green logos? That's the first I've heard of this...

The more I think about it, the more I feel like we should indeed pursue the return of Omega, at least for now. As for whether or not the Time Lords and Gallifrey as a whole will still be suffering from the effects of the Time War, I'd say it was released from that burden and given the chance to rebuild when the Doctor saved Gallifrey during The Day of the Doctor. Maybe Omega has somehow interfered with Gallifrey's recovery, though...The Doctor will play a huge role in the rebuilding of his home into a peaceful, prosperous society. It will not have the flaws that it did under the rule of people like Rassilon. If there's one thing the Doctor has learned on his eons-long journey, it's not to repeat the mistakes of the past.

In regards to the Doctor being linked to the Other, I suggest you read this to see where I was coming from with that. While this revelation could indeed remove some mystery from the Doctor, it could have the potential to add more in future series. In any case, it is extremely likely that I will pull a Moffat when it is time to answer the Question. At most, we could hint at the Doctor being the Other with phrases such as, "The Answer comes not from the Doctor, but from an Other." (another)

When it comes to the Series 11 opener, I think we may be going about things the wrong way. Series 6 has been our influence structure-wise, but the plot introduced in Series 6 is linked directly to Series 5...The Series 11 opener needs to be plot-heavy in terms of the overarching story, so while it can serve primarily to establish the new Doctor, it should also be more relevant than Deep Breath was. Regardless of the villain we select for reinvention, it also needs to be plot-relevant.

The only reason why the Doctor does not want to regenerate is because he is vain; it's part of his personality (think Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter franchise, another role given to Jason Isaacs). But yes, by the end of the series, when you learn the Doctor has had Gallifrey and its people inside him all along, you come to understand this man you thought you were meant to detest based on his actions may not necessarily be acting of his own volition.

The only thing I worry about in terms of The Doctor is how we can come up with the kind of stories I'm looking for, ones that either set up, elaborate upon by taking place at the same time as, or take place just after the journeys of the Eleventh (Series 1) and Twelfth (Series 2) Doctors while still adhering to the overarching plot of the DoctorDonna's travels with Jack Harkness and River Song. 26 episodes is rather long for a single season; I may decide to split each series into two, 13-episode long parts. So we'd have Series 1, pt. 1, and so on.

Paternoster Row would obviously have to take place in 1888's Paternoster Row, the Paternoster Gang's home base. That could be where the group's cases revolve around, or at least where they start off before going somewhere. I've only ever seen the first of the Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downey Jr. I'd prefer if the mysteries/cases explored in this series were not presented in that film's format (where everything is revealed at the end as having a logical explanation, or when the protagonists finally manage to put everything together all too easily).

I like those Dalek/Cyberman designs, too! Thanks for the wish for a pleasant weekend! Like I said, I will be around for the rest of the day today, so message me whenever.
