@blenkinsopthebrave I missed this the other day. I do like Ian. I wish that he would get a “cameo” in a new episode. The 60th anniversary special would do nicely.  I started writing a Christmas story involving Ian and his “grandson”, played by Alfred Enoch. (assuming Ian does marry Barbara he would have to be a grandson not son) a couple of years…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave Thanks for the welcome!

So I don’t understand this website because very few of the Third Doctor’s episodes even have a forum thread, and we have multiple threads for parts of the same stories.  I don’t understand why they don’t just let users make threads on this website since we have such a good community and could easily…[Read more]

It’s sad to hear about Cribbins’ passing.  Just the other day I was talking about The Stolen Earth/Journey’s End, and made some comparisons to The End of Time.  Wilf had a pretty big part in those episodes, and in the regeneration of 10 into 11.  In a way Wilf’s exit from Doctor Who was my introduction to it.

@blenkinsopthebrave Lots of lovely photos and four stars! That is praise indeed from the Guardian. (better than Marvel movie then.) Although there were some factual errors in one of the articles. (do not recall which but it irritated me.) They implied that the Doctor was not stated to be an alien until 1969 which is incorrect. It is clear in An…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave    We have a white oak in our garden and if it is a good acorn crop there is a feeding frenzy, Everybody shows up to eat them, grey and red squirrels, blue jays and red headed woodpeckers and even the cottontail bunnies eat the grounders. The grey squirrels bury them all over and then forget them so we counted 17 small oaks gr…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave    Ah, okay.   I wouldn’t put anything past them, cunning little buggers.   Beware of squirrels carrying chainsaws…

@missy        Yes, nice one!     Best one I can recall was one of those cutesy animal cards with a cartoon of a jolly hippo wearing a pink bow on the front and  “Hi.   I’m all yours”    Inside it said  “You’ll have to pay to get me towed away”

@janetteb    I wish Mrs D and I were sufficiently well organised that we could use that stratagem.    H…[Read more]

To  @nerys and @blenkinsopthebrave and @arbutus and any other Canadian Whovians  I missed “Happy Canada Day”.  I hope it was a good one, you all deserve it.

The mister was watching series 7 of A Canadian comedy called Letterkenny  when during their table talk one guy says “Everyone loves Doctor Who , right?” the others all agree “Yep” ,”for sur…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave surely you and mrs blenkinsop have also seen the first “Dr Who” by Cushing Dr Who and the Daleks which much like the Dalek invasion of the earth reduced the original tv version to another formulaic 60’s sci-fi film with heavy comedy element. I always have thought it was a shame as I felt Cushing could have made an excel…[Read more]

Sadly, Harold Saxon would be a model of competence, probity and intelligence compared to what we’ve been saddled with….

@blenkinsopthebrave  Your comment about people believing in what is right, (which for some reason this borrowed laptop won’t let me copy/paste( is so true. I often find that the “Lib or in non Oz speak, Conservative voters generally agree that climate change needs to addressed ,that inequality is bad, that “progress” should be better controlled,…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave   @janetteb      “There is no joy in Mudville, Mighty Casey has Struck Out” Sadly but predictably we have 4 or so more years of the  Conservatives. We voted knowing chances were slim even for a minority gov. but we lived in hope. Still it does give me someone to yell at when watching the news. Make that someone else since t…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave. I expect to see big changes now in Australia. Climate Change is on the agenda and it is pretty clear from that election result that Australians want climate action. “Albo” has long been the choice of the rank and file and more tellingly he is Penny Wong’s choice and endorsed by Julia Gillard so I trust we have a good P.M. at…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave  We bought a VHS of Dr Who and the Romans back in the nineties so it is one of the first Hartnell stories I ever saw maybe even before we saw Unearthly Child. It is a fun story, very hammy but fun. Ian and Barbara are really well established in their roles and this story brings to the fore the relationship of the respective…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave   I have never watched those episodes but your description makes me want to. I have a few DVDs of the first Doctor but that one is not on it. It is easier to find the old Who and watch on the internet so I will look for it. My library may have it.

Years back we found a few old episodes of “Lost in Space” and had good giggles r…[Read more]
