Ya think?

@Fonsini – I couldn’t agree with you less.

A prize to whoever knows where that quote comes from 😉  (no cheating and looking up the internet now!).

The Doctor “is not supposed to”? Says who? I’m not aware that anyone writes the rules for the Doctor other than those who are actually writing the show. And as others have stated, and has been discussed frequently here throughout this run, the Doctor’s anti military viewpoint is not only not new, it has been a specific th…[Read more]

Not really the people you want to be upsetting. Might be an idea to take your demented ravings back to the Daily Mail where there’ll at least be a receptive audience for them.

I agree with @DrBen and it doesn’t help your case to also ‘channel’ your personal political agenda
btw – maybe you are what is wrong with America today – a blatant lack of inclusiveness and of the
differences of peoples and opinions

First off, @PhaseShift is more than just “one character” – he’s an important dude around here with a lot to contribute.

Secondly, your conclusions are just plain wrong.  Neither the anti-American jabs or the anti-military jabs are new to this season or to the Moffat era.  The Doctor has expressed a…[Read more]

I wouldn’t worry about @fonsini s point. A casual look at his posting history will reveal what he’s about.

I did mean to respond to @brewski s comment earlier in the thread though when he quoted the line about praying.

Also would add I think Moffatt was very clever with the casting and hopefully headed off the ‘we want the Rani’ back brigade. We’ve now got a Master who fills both roles quite nicely. And Michelle Gomez — definitely mad as a tree — in the nicest possible way.

@fonsini — shoosh.

Everything you post from now on will be added to the “Trash” pile as soon as we spot it. So there is really no point in posting any more.

You need to study more history; if you did you would know that – until 2005 – most terrorist attacks in the United Kingdom were carried out by white people.

It’s pointless for you to continue trying to turn us to your paranoid musings, just as it’s painful for us.

The ethnic makeup shown is that of Shoreditch in 2014. Someone did their research (unlike you) and knows, for example, that the Muslim and Sikh pupils would be a small minority,…[Read more]

Actually, it’s not that I see it as laughable, but I do disagree. Here are my grounds for disagreeing. Not being British, I can’t speak in any real way to the leftist agenda of the BBC. But based strictly on the show itself, here’s what I see.

Danny Pink is an attractive, likeable and intriguing character, and his and Clara’s dialogue seemed something straight out of Coupling. What does his race have to do with anything?

You will likely disagree with this assessment, quite possibly seeing it as laughable

Hey – you called it.

If we ever get bored with “theories even more insane than what’s actually happening” as a tagline, we’ll substitute it with:
