THIS. yay, I’m not the only one to notice this moment. Ah well it can mean nothing of course, but provokes sooo many thoughts...
So I was rewatching new Doctor Who series 9 episode 12 “Hell Bent”, and I realized something, and I couldn’t find any mention of this on the internet (though I didn’t look very hard).
So basically, when Clara and Doctor are in the Cloister Room trying to find a way out, they go through a conversation about rumor of a young Gallifreyan, who once went into the Cloister Room, and the Sliders (Cloister people) told him a way out. Well, in the conversation Clara asks the Doctor
“ What, and the kid told you the secret? ” To which the Doctor replies
“ Ah, no, he didn’t tell anyone anything. He went completely mad. Never right in the head again, so they say. The last I heard, he stole the moon and the President’s wife. “
Clara immediately realized he was talking about himself and asks if the President’s wife was nice. To that the Doctor replied
“ Ah, well, that was a lie put about by the Shabogans. It was the President’s daughter. I didn’t steal the moon, I lost it.” The key element here is “it was the President’s daughter”.
I am very certain he is talking about Susan! His granddaughter! I’m certain because he is talking in a sense that refers to his early days, which is evident of his expression “The last i heard”, which was to express something that happened a long time ago.
This means, that if I’m correct, Susan, who is the granddaughter of the Doctor, is also a daughter of one of Gallifrey’s presidents’. That would mean, that Doctor is the father to that certain president.
If you want to check the references, here’s a link to the transcript of “Hell Bent”: http://www.chakoteya.net/DoctorWho/35-12.html
If there are any flaws, please point them out, I’d love to hear if my theory is flawed in any fashion!
This piece is one of my favorites in the entire museum; ‘Dream Cloud’ is carved from one piece of boulder opal mined in Australia. It’s an impressive piece, large enough to fill the palm of your hand.

This. So very much what I tend to headcanon about them. (Reminder for mysef: write down all that headcannon stuff. One day I will. Surely)
One important thing about my version of Simcoe is that he’s actually good friends with Andre. He’s friends with Andre, Tarleton, and de Lancey (the first two are true to history, the last one is inferred because de Lancey and Andre were friends). He enjoys spending time with them and doing the usual activities that soldiers do together; drink, gamble, play games, and make a mess of where ever they are (though Andre is the one that tends to clean up after them).
It’s also important to know that while Simcoe can be very vicious, this version is not vicious without cause. If he’s suspicious of someone, for whatever reason, he can easily be as ruthless as his Turn counterpart.
Simcoe also happens to have a soft spot for children and he ends up having nine children with his wife, Elizabeth Posthuma Simcoe. In his years during the Revolution, he wasn’t exactly a good with kids but he wasn’t a bad influence. He was just a bit awkward.
