In Pyramid of Mars, The Doctor took Sarah Jane Smith to the future to show her what the world would look like if they didn't stop Sutek.
We will never see stories like that which use altering time as a part of the story but with no reset. Maybe the Doctor would accidentially change something and go to the future and the Timelords are still around?
Also, I think we did see part of the Time War, starting in Genesis of the Daleks during the Tom Baker era when the Time Lords wanted the Doctor to destroy the Daleks before they were created right up to Syvester McCoy's time as The Doctor.

Bring on the Battlefield references - they could work Lethbridge-Stewart into this one - in the alternate universe, he could still be kicking arse and shooting five rounds rapid!
well I hated the bit when the Giant Cyberman came out of the Thames. I liked the rest.
and Doctor Who should take time to explain how the "magic" is done.
Dammit!
Ok - You'll never hear a Doctor with an American accent. Can you imagine a Doctor with a Brooklyn accent? "Where's my f$%&* sonic thingy?"
Or a Doctor with a deep southern accent - "howdy ya'll, I'm the Doctuh." I don't think the Doctor will ever have a non-British accent. The Queen's English is what he speaks, with a few exceptions, but he'll never ever say "color" instead of "colour" or "program" instead of "programme" because he's just that awesome.

On the contrary, I like it when the Doctor is confronted by stuff beyond his ken. Adds a real "Oh shitte" moment.

Right, because that's exactly what Doctor Who needs: technobabble.
If you want that, go watch Voyager.I'd rather they stick with "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow" and "wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey" type explanations, thanks.
He explained they came from a dimension where language worked like higher order mathematics.
We've previously seen advanced mathematics (Block transfer computation) used to manipulate reality (Logopolis, Castrovalva).
