What If Story
After the somewhat declining ratings of the Second Doctor Era, the Third Doctor era jumpstarted the Golden Age of Doctor Who with some of the best stories at the time. As well as many highly favoring Price's version of the character. He tried to stay on as long as possible, and was the longest serving Doctor at the time, but eventually, he decided to leave the role as he felt his time was up after 5 years, and wanted to go back to film full time. With this, there was yet another hunt for The Doctor. After a lot of time and tribulation, the producers believed they found the perfect Doctor: Gene Wilder. The producer wanted someone who could play both very very dark and very very light, as well as a touch of arrogance and being very sarcastic. And none of this was more apparent than in Wilder's performance of Willy Wonka. Even though Wilder was somewhat against doing a television series at the height of his career, he eventually decided to do it when he saw the direction the series was taking, being more in touch with horror and aiming the show towards an older audience. With this, the reign of Gene Wilder's Fourth Doctor begins!
