For me on first viewing this episode amounted to an information overload delivered much of the time at a machine gun rattle. I may be getting old,* but my hearing is still pretty good, and even so at times I had to resort to subtitles to keep track of what was going on, which didn’t help. There were plenty of intriguing and very promising…[Read more]

Merry meet everyone!

Thanks to @Craig for keeping the Forum going.

I’m excited for a serial story, as I much prefer a contiguous narrative thread to pull on, Minotaur style.

There WAS a lot going on and I feel I need a re-watch – bit of a Halloween smorgasbord of aliens, with Sontarans, dog-aliens, whoever blue-crystal-face (Swarm) is, Weeping…[Read more]

Well, when an episode is entitled Chapter 1, you know what you’re going to get. An episode in which we establish the characters, the setting and the problem.

My guess is (agree with you, @devilishrobby) that the problem is still the Doctor’s Memory Wiped Past and we are now in Act Three of that story. That’s why the Inciting Incident is…[Read more]

@craig  Cheers!

Agreed @craig my initial response still stands.But thinking about what happened I’m assuming this has all something to do with the doctors hidden past as it is obvious the doctor and what looks to be the series main villain have a history (obviously). At one point I did wonder if it was going to turn out that the big bad was going to turn out to b…[Read more]

@craig welcome back. Hope all is well with you.

Cheers

@craig, Welcome back! Was starting to think you had been abducted and imprisoned by the Judoon. (Maybe you had, but managed to escape!)

@craig    Minor website matter – in Dr Who News on 24th June, ‘osdffdsfg’ or somesuch posted a mountain of rubbish with several commercial links in it.   May I suggest respectfully nuking it from orbit?  And maybe banning Mr alphabet soup.

@craig, @phaseshift, @jimthefish Am contacting you all in your respective capacities as Emperor and Time Lords of the site about the current spammer who is flooding the site.

As the spammer’s posts are still on the site, it occurred to me that @craig might not be around at the moment. Hence this call to the collective powers of our resident Time…[Read more]

@craig   Also,  Quatermass and the Pit Part 1 – the last post is a big spam.   Hope us users aren’t nagging you too much   🙂

@janetteb  @craig    … and he’s spammed garbage and links all over the site.   On the Sofa, for starters, but a whole lot of others too.   Craig, please can you nuke him from orbit, terminate him with extreme prejudice, yadda yadda.   I don’t know if you have an easy way to track every post he’s made, if not I’ll volunteer to trawl the site and…[Read more]

@craig We have another one!!

@craig, If you are around, could you rid us of the unwanted attentions of the meddlesome Shandi?

@johnnybear Me too. And, I suspect, lots of others.

@craig, if you are out there, could you help?

@craig

Hi Craig, Just posted on The Kebab & Calculator and noticed that is has well over 1,000 posts. It might be due for an upgrade.

@craig  – another spambot for you, Kaylee402 on General Open Thread – TV shows

@craig
Think we may have a spammer or certainly someone who doesnt respect site protocol,….Guy seems to want us to sponsor him for cancer research or some such using Elizabeth sladen as the excuse who apparently only died 10weeks ago

hey everyone , glad to hear that your all well , about @blenkinsopthebrave‘s and @janetteB‘s thinking of reviewing   eps of The Third Doctor’s thats seems a good place to start and hopefully @Craig can work on that 🙂

I have now seen all of ‘The Monk Trilogy’ and I found all three eps to be very enjoyable and entertaining , Peter Capaldi’s a…[Read more]

Yes, I am all in favour of having a viewing of some classic Who. While you like the Tom Baker Doctor (who doesn’t?) we have looked at quite a lot of his stories. Might I suggest a story from another brilliant classic Doctor? What about the story “Inferno” from the 3rd Doctor, Jon Pertwee? It is a spectacular story, with a cast who are…[Read more]

Just following on from @devilishrobby, there is a spammer roaming on the site.
