Oh, and this.

Look what I got…my dad went on a secret mission to get it for my birthday. Had no idea! Best gift. #TheUltimateGinger pic.twitter.com/u1Ip1moGFe— Karen Gillan (@karengillan) March 30, 2020

Thet seem to be coming thick and fast today.

Many thanks @toinfinityandbepond and @blenkinsopthebrave

Hey all, at the risk of seeming needy, I thought I would let you all know that today is my 50th birthday.

And I’m spending it on my own. 🙁

We did have a whole family thing planned with my parents and my brother and his family but it all, quite rightly, had to be cancelled. Have talked on the phone though.

Then one of my friends was going to…[Read more]

And, as we were promised. A sequel.

I love that, even though it’s not on TV, the original TV announcer is doing idents – because, why not?

And here is Russell T Davies prequel to “Rose”

https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/entries/4acfd237-6eee-47b5-93bd-1c16cd065614

Tune in on your favourite streaming service at 7pm for the episode.

Here’s a trailer for tonight’s global watch-along. On Twitter: #TripofaLifetime

Russell T Davies just posted this on Twitter:

Okay, so, PREQUEL on the BBC website at 2, then 2.30 on my instagram in a different format. What can this mean?! Rose at 7pm, then 7.45pm, ROSE: THE SEQUEL. Yes! The sequel!

I will try to keep up.

@phaseshift @jimthefish @janetteb @blenkinsopthebrave and everyone else.

I think there are more watch-alongs planned. In fact I think “Rose” is happening on Thursday” (15 year anniversary – maybe) and then shortly after “The Eleventh Hour” (10 year anniversary – maybe). I’m unsure but will check and have everything in order if it does happen.

Well, here it is.

Yes! Here it is, courtesy of @StevenWMoffat and with the help of @McIntoshNeve, my esteemed colleague Strax entreats you to #SaveTheDay and join us in our viewing of The Day of The Doctor. Today at 7pm GMT, 3pm EST and all around the world! #DoctorWho pic.twitter.com/ljqFWM6QRE

Just to let everyone know I have already marked mona chara as a spammer.

@miapatrick Thank you. Have marked them as a spammer.

By the great comic artist Bill Sienkiewicz.

Sad to hear that the great Max von Sydow passed away. A true legend. It’s hard to think of an actor who created so many different iconic characters or was in so many iconic films and TV programmes. Even people who’ve never seen “The Seventh Seal” know his chess game with Death. People who’ve never seen “The Exorcist” know “The power of Christ…[Read more]

And apropos of nothing… I’m developing a new website for my mate Dave, the music producer, and I’ve been digging around for some of his old stuff to add content to the site.

I’d almost forgotten about this (but have a nagging doubt I may have posted it before – but who cares). In 2004 he went to Jamaica and got to make a track with the legend…[Read more]

Just rewatched the episode and, taking a leaf out of @whist ‘s book, this came to mind. I love the words to this.

Just popping in. My brain may be fuzzy as it’s been a long day and I’ve had a couple of after dinner G&Ts. But I think he was called Yana – which stood for “You Are Not Alone” (a running theme that series).

Why that makes any sense whatever, I have no idea. But it was a great reveal.

@jimthefish All links are “No follow” so no harm done, no rankings improved. I don’t really mind.
