hey, thanks @Raxacoricofallapatorius ( @barnable ?) – I’m touched that you liked it.

I like how the character of the Tardis has grown from box/ship, to anthropomorphized vehicle to travelling companion with free will of her own. Over time the Doctor would naturally think it ‘broken’, then ‘temperamental’ and only later that it might choose that…[Read more]

SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER...

Such wonderful bonkers theorizing, @all. Welcome, @PurpleCat. Long may you theorize; rarely (I hope) may you continue to lurk. Great introductory posts.  Definitely looking forward to more, whenever you chose to step over the lurkdom threshold.

Waves “hi” and offers a New Years party favor to other recent arrivals.  Sorry if I haven’t r…[Read more]

Unfortunately I recall that Moffat said that they had actually left the time stream. I don’t know exactly where I read this, but there must be some people on here who know…

@Barnable   Indeed, I would have liked to have accompanied it with an elegant diagram full of lovely, swooping lines, like @Bluesqueakpip‘s, but as I don’t know how to make such a thing digitally, or how to include it in a post, I had to go with the written-only approach. Much harder to follow! I like a good visual argument, myself.

Hello, one and all.

Happy New Year!

And Happy Birthday, dear wonderful forum!

And jelly babies, celery, and Jammie Dodgers all around for reaching, nay, *exceeding* the 1000 member mark.

Should be some sort of prize for our emperor @Craig — another regeneration…[Read more]
