New blog post folks…

I’ve scoured the net and found a few ‘alternative’ takes on the new costume!

Enjoy..

Re “@FatManInABox so it is real then?”

It most definitely IS real! I was just having a bit of tongue in cheek fun. I don’t think I’ve got the reach or requisite amount of clout to start a fully fledged internet panic over the next costume 🙂

@FatManInABox

No idea what you’re talking about!!!!

So you spotted that then 🙂

At least she was pulling me up over syntax rather than the sentiment.

@FatManInABox

LOL… Might have a couple of copies of The Web of Fear Ep 3 lying around somewhere though 🙂

That whole thing was a farce. I was following Ian Levine’s comments about it on Twitter! Did you see his earlier outburst against Phil Morris? That’s one frustrated Who fan right there!!

Urgent!

Don’t be taken in by the images of Capaldi in his new costume… Get the facts here –

Afternoon all!

Been busy for a while so haven’t been catching up on what’s going on over here.

If anyone’s interested here’s the link to my latest blog post. It’s an odd post for me as it’s one of those rare occasions where I’ve decided not to sit on the fence for a change and have voiced my opinion about something that’s been bothering me for…[Read more]

For anyone who fancies a look, my latest blog post went up last night and focuses on Target books and the upcoming City of Death novelisation

Have a read of this interesting piece by Ed McGuigan of Outpost Skaro on the potential status of the missing episodes…

Interesting stuff!!

@ScaryB @FatManInABox

Many thanks for the kind words re the blog!!

Interesting thoughts on the Daleks. Despite their place in the history of the show they have always been one of the enemies that I never really cared for! Give me the Cybermen any day of the week.

However I’ve recently decided to have another look at the Daleks and intend to…[Read more]

Hi everyone!

Sorry to go off on a tangent but I’ve just had some great news and I was bursting to share it with you!

I know I’m new to the forum but some of you will be aware that I write a blog called ‘Five Rounds Rapid’ which I use to showcase my love of our favourite show!

I was recently given the…[Read more]

Anyone interested to see what DW would look like if it was produced by Disney?? Then look no further…

Guys, I need your help tracking down the stickers from the 50th Anniversary Chocolate Bars. I’m trying to pit a set together!! Read about it in my latest blog post

@PlaneShift

The 18th sounds good to me! I’ll need to pick up a copy of The Time Meddler before then though 🙂

Good choices for the others as well, especially day of the Daleks. Still haven’t seen the TV version yet but it was one of my favourites of the Target novels and I must have read it several times. Can I suggest The Daemons as well for…[Read more]

@PhaseShift

The BG retrospectives are a brilliant idea. Is this ongoing or something that’s due to start up again? If the latter what will the next series be? I’d love to get involved!!

@devilishrobby

@bluesqueakpip has made a really good point there. I’ve just started re-watching Matt’s run again, and after sitting through The Eleventh Hour and The Beast Below it is pretty amazing to see just how young he looks in those early episodes. The rigorous schedule is always something that comes up in interviews and it wouldn’t…[Read more]

There’s a great piece by Michael East over at Doctor Who Worldwide that succinctly brings everything together that’s known so far re Series 8

I put a new blog post up earlier re Capaldi’s first day of filming. I’ve put in a stock image from the article that @bluesqueakpip linked to earlier but I’ve also added a fun little fan piece that someone put together on the back of the BBC release

Come have a look http://5roundsrapid.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/and-so-it-begins
