@Bluesqueakpip – I didn’t necessarily mean professionally; i just mean she’ll have spent a lot of time in the last few years either living, workshopping or auditioning round London, hanging out with the London […]

@Lula @badwolf99 – a shout out for Breaking Bad from me too; I’ve met all sorts of people hot and cold on Wire, Mad Men (especially) and the Sopranos etc. But I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t gripped by BB from […]

@lula @bluesqueakpip – hell I’m just enjoying hearing a cosily familiar accent on telly, wobbly or not from JLC. Not heard often enough (comedy continuity announcers do not count)

I can’t say I’m noticing it […]

@elwingt @scaryB – just to remind everyone, its HaveYouFedTheFish, not HaveYouAteTheFish … Small, but ever so important difference :O/

@phaseshift – how about the Kendal Masterplan? (freshly minted)

@Juniperfish

Seriously though, does anyone on here think love is NOT going to save the day?

I still think there’s an outside chance on the day being saved by 6ft4 shape changing trans-sexual kangaroo named […]

@Whisht –

being ‘normal’ means I wasted a disproportionate amount of time trying to figure out an anagram of Clara Oswin Oswald.

The problem with anagramming Clara’s name is that she has more letters on the […]

And if anyone was wondering why I (rather than the cloister bell) won’t shut the hell up – http://xkcd.com/303/

Actually more to the point @lula I’ve been meaning to ask this for a couple of days; why, exactly, is the cloister bell ringing at all? It’s supposed to warn of imminent danger to the Tardis, not the doc (the […]

Oh one last thought – @shazzbot (and others) point out that Clara must be human (not say, some space-time anomaly) because she has a family.

(Maybe it shows how far Who has come, but noone blinked an eye and […]

@PhileasF – totally agree, see my earlier post about the same scene. Watch carefully Clara’s expression as the doc says “love story”. That is suddenly one very knowing and happy smile that you don’t often see […]

@Shazzbot – don’t worry, the doc promised crooked man that he would take them “somewhere else where they could be together”

Minor literary point – if the docs last uttering in the episode is “jump!” (can’t […]

@bluesqueakpip – oh you clever pipsqueak you! We never thought that “Rose” doesn’t have to refer to Rose Tyler. Why should it? And that opens up all sorts of interesting literary references. tNOtH is one, and the […]

@badwolf99 – I absolutely  love your idea, especially that she’s self fulfilling paradox, that has to exist well… because it already exists. This is essentially how the universe came into existence out of the […]

@juniperfish – I’m getting the impression that your mega-post (I believe the official scale is big, huge, gargantu, mega, titanic, gigs, eye-watering, juniper, HTPBDET ) is slightly tongue in cheek. But […]

@ardaraith – jeez lady, great observation work!!!! Those are some peepers you have there!

@bluesqueakpip – aaaaah but it’s interesting how little redesign has gone into the zygon, and it’s not a great realisation. Like they didn’t spend *that* much on it…

Also it seems to crop up in the […]

And a thought about zygons. Although I love your idea @bluesqueakpip, @jimthefish I think you’re right, there is no way they would reveal the real baddie. I think the zygon is a total misdirection, I bet they […]

Couple of thoughts I had waiting for the kettle to boil:

1) surely e-space is a pocket universe (nice callback to logopolis with the entropy references)? In which case, why did the tardis operate fine in […]

@shazzbot – if you “like” the idea of a bug being eaten alive by parasites eggs AND want to see a story that explains why the doc adores humans, man struggle with what it means to be human, what free will is, and […]
