    @blenkinsopthebrave –

    ah, mea culpa. Hadn’t realised that it had a full episode intact. Thought it was reduced to just clips and telesnaps. I do have a copy of Lost in Time somewhere but I’m ashamed to say that I’ve still not watched it.

  • Devilishrobby replied to the topic Wild Blue Yonder

    @blenkinsopthebrave yes I also am eagerly awaiting the final episode of the 60th specials in part because it seems to be shaping up to be more of a Special episode. As a side note I read or watched somewhere, as I have a tendency to watch multiple YouTube Who bloggers, that there are plans put it on the list to recreate the missing episodes of…[Read more]

    Back for breakfast…

    @blenkinsopthebrave and @miapatrick <waves>  I’m guessing “mavity” isn’t just there for fun, but it’s going to be a butterfly effect, which will come back to haunt them in the next episode?

    Newton uttered the word after Donna left in the TARDIS, but although she didn’t hear it, it would have been written down as such by…[Read more]

    @blenkinsopthebrave

    ….  “mavity”. Surely, that joke/word is first uttered by Newton after they have flown off, so why are they playing with it on the spaceship?

    My assumption was that their encounter with Newton and Donna’s joke (Boom Boom!) had altered history, with consequences yet to be seen. Otherwise it would have been pointless.

    As for…[Read more]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic Wild Blue Yonder

    <span class=”useratname”>@blenkinsopthebrave I think for Donna that is now the word. Not gravity but mavity. I noticed the Doctor looked at her when she said it, noticing that something had changed.

    I mean that’s how important a person Donna is. Changing English vocabulary with a mum joke. And it was so much fun just watching her make i…[Read more]

    RTD2 – love it!!

    Thanks but I almost certainly can’t take credit for that. I’m sure some sharp young thing came up with it on Twitter or whatever it’s calling itself these days.

    And that’s a really nice piece from Pat. And since he’s seldom known for holding back on his opinions we can safely say that it’s meant from the heart. And good t…[Read more]

  • JimTheFish replied to the topic The Star Beast

    Well, I enjoyed that a lot. It felt like big, proper Who and convinced me that Davies hasn’t lost his touch. This could easily have fitted in to one of Davies’ later seasons and was actually a damn sight better than some of the stories from that time.

    @blenkinsopthebrave and @jimthefish. Don’t worry, I’m still alive, just very busy, but I will be updating the site tomorrow for the big new grand opening of what I think they are now calling Season 1 (again).

    Love to you all.

    @Blenkinsopthebrave

    You are so right.

    I’ve been digging into some of the old episodes (via the charming Tardis Tales series) – it’s like time travelling back to my younger self and different times (good to be able to fast forward again tho!)

    How are you my friend?

    @devilishrobby  Thanks for the heads up! I just watched and thought it was very timey wimey.

    @blenkinsopthebrave  and @ janetteb  I have not watched the Star Wars Xmas thing since it first aired so many years ago.My kids were little and they liked it and that is all I remember about it. It was very unforgettable I think.

    @blenkinsopthebrave. Ah the Star Wars Christmas Special. We are going to cover that for our next cult tv podcast. I suspect it will be a “hate watch”. Those always seem to be the most fun.

    Talking of which we just did Black Orchid which was not overly popular. One of our group was horrified at having to watch at least five minutes of cricket.…[Read more]

    Greetings, fellow bonkerisers, and thanks for the kind words. And yes, it was just a quick sketch this time. Hopefully will have time for something else later. Hope you’re both as psyched for the specials as I am. (Tho must admit I’m also quite looking forward to the colourised Daleks….)

    corrupt British governments? Steady on! You’ve got Inferno to come. Suella with a eyepatch anyone?

    Hi @janetteb and @blenkinsopthebrave — glad to see you’re both hanging in there. RL is largely fine, if verging on the weird at times. Hope you’re both doing well too. And yes, I’ll accept that challenge. Will try to come up with a portrait of 15 soon (might even do 14 as well).
