I think if you lived through the Ian and Barbara years, at the time, you would find it hard to imagine them not being together after their travels.
It’s like working on a piece of theatre with […]

The failing in BG Who was that they didn’t show that any of the Companions had grown/changed as individuals and to sign post that their departure day was arriving. If they had added this relatively small change […]

You are not alone re Simm – as I said above I did not like where RTD took the Master but I liked how Simm played the character as envisaged by RTD. Not many people could have made that piece of […]

The view we get of Amy and Rory is pretty much the view the Doctor gets – a series of short stories, the exciting bits, with huge chunks of their life happening when he’s not around.
Not sure […]

One thing is timeless: the people at the top of creative ladders at the BBC hate programmes which they did not commission.
I don’t think SM has that many supporters in the new administrative […]

Well, Ms Adler did not have to be presented that way – but she was.
Hermione Norris would make a chilling mistress of evil if she was cast as one – and not necessarily sexual. Gina McKee could too. […]

Thanks – I have actually contacted the BMM about a few things they may want. Still waiting to hear back.
Do you know and recommend whoviannet.com? I have never heard of them?
I don’t know – I […]

Oh, I really liked the Rani. She is a great role-model for feminine evil.
I always really liked Vivien Fey from Stones of Blood and if camp overplaying is your thing, Adrastra from Creature From […]

Ah….you are always gentle!
But I thought you might bite… 🙂
I have no memory of the post @TardisBlue mentions, but thought you might…

Thank goodness for you!
Here was I musing about rambling on about “To S or not to S” (mainly in the forlorn hope that @Shazzbot would cease prodding me!) and you mention that I appear to have […]

HTPBDET commented on the post, Who.Alt — 1.1 An Unearthly Child
Just to say, again, – bravo!
There are several things here I really like: and what is most interesting is the idea that the union of Ian and Barbara is already set (and inter-racial) prior to […]

Shall we wait for Craig? I could repost mine, but they would not be in order?
Or could you re-order them when done?
I’ll come back to you in defence of Krotons…

I did not mean to suggest that those AG excerpts were padding – I was just trying to see what you thought about them viv-a-vis the Talons stuff.
To me the terms “padding” and “filler” are […]

Have to disagree with @HTPBDET re. episode three. It was very much padding. Quality padding that brought much richness and texture to the secondary characters — which helps greatly in feeling […]
