@ichabod – totally take your point about Clara’s tight-rope walking. In wish fulfillment land, of course you would. However, Clara is displaying all the signs of knowing it’s Not OK 😉 Sure, a lot of that is to do with Danny’s incomplete understanding of the situation. Then again, in terms of the pushing too far, putting in danger, he’s right o…[Read more]

Flippin’ heck, @ichabod, nice words! Who wouldn’t want a charismatic, character building, adrenaline-pushing man-like alien!

Strangely compelling masculine figure right enough..

@blenkinsopthebrave (blushes)

Having watched the classic Hartnell “The Daleks”, in which the Doctor was incredibly passive (radiation, I know, or was it something else?) the Mind Robber and the Silurians, we finally watched the Unearthly Child arc as a family. I had seen it as a child but it was fascinating to watch and my fave of the classics I have seen. As an Extended Gap…[Read more]

Things I love about this place

1) It’s a nice, positive environment where people discuss Doctor Who in a constructive manner

2) When they drive the troll out, they place on the east side of the forum a @pedant and a flaming keyboard that flashed back and forth to guard the way to the Thread of discussion

@janetteB so glad you and you friends and neighbours are safe, but horrible news about the animals. Hope everything continues safe for your this summer x

Oh @janetteB looks terrible on the news :-

@janetteB really hope you are OK. Sounds truly terrifying. As @scaryB says our weather is largely slightly bad rather than bad, so even snow here rarely comes to anything. I’m totally OK with that, rather that than fires 🙁

Also @craig, @phaseshift, we seems to have a bit of spam on the pub door mat this morning

@janetteB, bloomin’ heck. Hope everyone is safe. So strange to think on the difference. Just started rubbish snowing here

Hi @ichabod, lovely to see you here, I’m a newbie, who could possibly come across as obsessed logging on at 08:30, but actually just getting breakie for the other half to go to work and taking 5 before the wee one is up 😉

Never mind the avatar, what about the ideas?! Love your description of the show, and look forward to future discussions of…[Read more]

@purofilion, have to give credit to the Moff on that one! Deep breathe. Don’t know much Smith or Tennant, but can pretty much quote series 8 😉

@scaryB  😀

@cyberlord

Alcohol?

Actually, they put cat-nip at the top of the tabs. Nice that you are enjoying yourself

Wow! Away for a for a few hours and toooo much to take in

Particularly loved

@purofilion

Unconquerable confederation mystique

Just Lovely!!

@pedant

100% pure distilled Doctor

And that bloody house! Keep coming back to it. @scaryB agree about the ‘Tardis’ door. Of course Dave wouldn’t knock at his own house door (@nerys). I would love to give it…[Read more]

@janetteB, once a year, as the days shorten/lengthen and the temperature drops/rises, it comes around..

Car trouble! Hope it gets sorted and isn’t it the way that the most fun seems to happen when the odds are stacked against it. I think, it must be an age thing, where as you get on a bit, it does become easier not to sweat the small stuff.…[Read more]

Happy New Year!!! Bed time now

@kermit, no problem. Watching the horror channel pertwee, recorded so as to zip past the entirely unsuitable for kids ad breaks :-

Thanks @craig, sounds like an important night after all. Hope it went well; passions were high over the referendum, but here we all are still. Strong beliefs aside, the next most important thing is to keep talking 🙂

Not that it should make any odds, but arise Sir War Doctor!!! (Hurt is in the New years honours) (where the Queen hands out baubles)

I think he’ll wear it well.
