@ardaraith

of the High Council referring to the Doctor as having gone rouge.

I bet that made them blush 😉

Well I hope everyone is recovering from their 50th anniversary celebrations, whether that be on your sofa or cinemas from Mexico City to Mars.

@Phaseshift did you manage to quaff cocktails from Doctor 5 to Doctor 11 and stay standing? I’m not surprised the “Great Green Vampire” for Doctor 4 proved strong medicine – it is based on Hemingway’s…[Read more]

@ardaraith D’oh they’ve taken that down!

I managed to see it on good old trusty DailyMotion

SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER...

@ardaraith, misspelt your name- love your bowtie,(and hat!)  hate copying your name.

@ardaraith

I think River was supposed to be their way of ensuring the silence that must fall at Trenzilore by killing him before he went there. As it turned out she ensured the Silence by saying his name in a way that nobody else could hear. Funny how these prophesies turn out, isn’t it?

Thoughts on CAF’s interview (and thanks for ever-vigilant link-posting @Shazzbot) – “forfever is a long time”… TV was still very young way back then and actors have (just occasionally!) been known to exaggerate (looking at you Mr H, and you CAF!)

@JimtheFish Re trailer – You BIG cynic you! I think it’s very unlikely that they wouldn’t plan to…[Read more]

@ardaraith– that’s interesting- did we have conformation, before The Eleventh Hour, that McGann’s doctor was cannon? I almost cheered when I saw his face, because I thought he was badly let down by the film, but […]

That was great. And @ardaraith, seeing Matt with an attractive haircut makes me doubly rue the fringe the Doctor sported. He’s much better looking out of the guise of the Doctor!

@Shazzbot in re this reply:

No, I’m not in Ireland, alas! I did spend a lovely three weeks there with @ardaraith last November, after which I yearned to spend a year abroad. We just couldn’t figure out a way to […]

@ardaraith Many “there, there, dear”s sent to you .We may not agree on Matt Smith as being the best Doctor but I knew you’d be sad at the news! He did grow on me, and it’s mostly your fault that I gave him a […]

@ardaraith i’m glad i’m not alone here in my hopes of keeping Smith on. I do hope it is some swicheroo (is that a word?) at the end of the “next” doctors tenure……. be that a series or a single episode.

But […]

@ardaraith  I’m with you on the ‘Matt is my Doctor’ boat [though you never know in advance if that could change. Matt substituted Baker for someone in this forum]

@Juniperfish totally agree with you on your […]

@Shazzbot Wouldn’t be concerned with rambling! But yeah, I did wonder if that was a bit too human in thinking; it did remind me of a previous discussion (which I think @ardaraith began) on another aspect of the […]

@Ardaraith, et al

Putting my bonkers theorising™ pipe aside, I doubt it will be a kiddie due to the UK child labour laws.  Now that may be wishful thinking on my part, but I couldn’t stand another RoA singing […]

Smith was ‘my’ Doctor.

@ardaraith – yes, that’s always painful. Sylvester McCoy was ‘my’ Doctor, in his last two series (I was unusual in that ‘my’ Doctor was the fifth Doctor I’d seen – but for me, McCoy […]

the Doctor will be a child ( has anyone suggested this yet?)

@ardaraith  :waves hand in the air frantically: Me! Me! Me! (and possibly @PhaseShift as well).

Or at least I suggested he’ll regenerate as a baby […]

@ardaraith – yes, they don’t seem to stay as long as when I was a kid … oh, wait, that would be Tom Baker.  I was primary school aged when he arrived, and applying for universities when he left. : […]

@ardaraith I will miss him as well :'(  Best to cheer up though =) The only constant in Doctor Who is change (saw that somewhere). You got that forum here as support^^
