@phaseshift et al

Is this the time to release a really bitter long form post entitled “F*** Chris Chibnall, and all his works”?

Sorry about Whittaker – what might have been,eh?

My sentiments exactly and I to was wondering if it’s time for an examination of the Chibs era. Possibly best to wait to until s13 in case there’s a dramatic rise in qualit…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave oooo what places is this you have been reading. If accurate I wonder if it may be something similar to The key of time season where the adventures were linked stories which all had the underlining storyline but individual stories or if it’s going to be essentially one long story like most of the early BG stories. This move c…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave  Thanks for that. I needed some Who news and I guess we got a tiny wee glimpse of what’s to come. Has anyone heard when?  We have to wait for so long and I do wait ,sometimes patiently, sometimes anxiously for each new series. Of course this gap was longer because of Covid so what can ya do.

I really don’t know what to e…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave thanks for the link. I would have preferred them to say, “smallest adventure yet”, but other than that was welcome. Hopefully the “biggest adventure yet” is just advertising hyperbole and what we get is just a collection of good stories, average stories and maybe, one or two brilliant stories and Gallifrey is restored or was…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave  Thanks and congrats to you both. Masking and distancing are both as important now as at the start. We both decided right from the beginning that we would listen to the science and the worlds top doctors and be good examples for our kids and grandkids.  We have been very fortunate to all be healthy ,if not so happy, so far a…[Read more]

@winston and @blenkinsopthebrave I saw it actually got to 49c, in Canada!! That is really scary. Hope you are all fine and not in danger from heat/fires etc. Seems you are getting a dose of our weather and that is just wrong.

I prefer the new, rule breaking Picard to the lawful Picard of Next Generation, which is certainly one of the reasons I…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave    We are pretty used to the heat where I am and we have ways to cope with it ,if it doesn’t last too long. The poor people who are losing their homes to fires caused by the hot , dry conditions are in my thoughts.

My daughter did have a few hard days what with the heat and she got sick from her 2nd vaccine. She is a kind wo…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave    My family lived in Perth, W.A., from when I was three till six, when we went back to UK.   For several years other kids in Hampshire thought I was an Aussie.   But I lost that accent and reacquired an English one, which apparently I still have (though I’ve been in NZ since I was 14).    I can’t tell, but occasiona…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave  I hope you and the Mrs. are managing the heat wave that the west is having. My daughter was having a hard time keeping her furry kids cool which really upset her but it cooled a bit today where she is. We have extreme heat here but a lot of us have air conditioners to keep us cool. Anyway , take care and keep as cool as a…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave. We do have a reconstructed version in our personal library. Not sure as to the quality however. We have had the collection for some time so there might well be a better version around now but it does use stills and voice over so sounds akin to what you described.

@dentarthurdent Time Heist is certainly not Listen which is one…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave We have the reconstructed stories but I have only watched a couple. Not sure if we have watched Wheel in Space or not. Will have to have a look as it sounds like it might be the Dr Who story that frightened me when  I was a child. (Not even really sure it was Dr Who)

@miapatrick. I would be very happy to help as I have some…[Read more]

@devilishrobby My youngest son recently gave me a long lecture on The Cartmell Plan. If only he was that dedicated to his study. He was researching Dr Who while I was researching the Spanish Civil War on his behalf. I got the impression from what son said that the Timeless Children concept might have evolved out of the Cartmell Plan but I was far…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave  That is a great photo! The Abraham Lincoln Brigade with Oliver Law have the look of heroes everywhere, just everyday people doing what they think is right and good.

@blenkinsopthebrave

yes! Unfortunately what you’ve said is correct.

for a long time, I thought something was wrong with me because I couldn’t face Inception.

It was inspired, apparently, but I felt dull witted. Spoilers ahead……

there’s a type of bad rap called Mumblerap, & Tenet is SO incredibly murky sounding & the voice tracks so muted &am…[Read more]

@blenkinsopthebrave

I tried to contact Craig couple weeks ago via email about passwords etc aaand no reply.

point is, I hope he’s OK.

So, Forum be rocking! 😉

puro.

@blenkinsopthebrave

Hello everyone. I have been very quiet, but have read most of your posts – except for the one above???

Frankly, I have reached the point where I don’t mind who plays the Doctor, as long as it’s a male actor and British.

If this makes me sexist, hard cheese. *grins*

@blenkinsopthebrave it’s not as if they haven’t cast an actor that’s appeared in the show previously for example Colin Baker player a Galifreyan Gaurd in the Tom Baker era as I remember or was it during Peter Davison’s stint. Though some might say that would not be necessarily be a recommendation though you may remember Capaldi also previou…[Read more]

@toinfinityandbepond and @blenkinsopthebrave Saw the article this morning. some interesting suggestions though most  I am unfamiliar with. I have been thinking that Michaela Coel would be an interesting candidate but suspect she has bigger things on her plate, as with Phoebe Waller-Bridge. (Which is a shame because I suspect that both have that…[Read more]
