@HTPBDET and/or his nephews or fledgling:

Please pop your head into the Rose and Crown long enough to let us know you’re OK. I hope you’re enjoying your time back at home, catching up with friends, making […]

Nice to hear from you again @ScaryB Hope you will have more time for bonkers theorising soon. Welcome to new members. I look forward to hearing more from you all.

I hope @HTPBDET is about. Haven’t heard from […]

@Shazzbot @HTPBDET (and everyone else too of course, inc all the newbies)

Thanks for missing me Shazz, and welcome back (sorry, hugely belated). Am fine, the complete opposite of holiday, with  very little […]

@JanetteB @Shazzbot @Bluesqueakpip @HTPBDET @Madscientist72 @OsakaHatter

As much as I like the idea that each Claraicle is guarding a hidden TimeLord child (anything is possible after all), I thought each […]

@HTPBDET

I just cannot see what you both see so clearly.

While this is a tragedy, I believe it’s one I can cope with.

@bluesqueakpip

Well argued I think, on all counts.

@shazzbot

There is an […]

Nothing you say proves any aspect of your theory. You may well be right, but there is no proof for your theory in the programme. I admire your certainty about your thoughts.

@HTPBDET – good. I will now […]

@HTPBDET –

Are there rules in the real world about what does or does not constitute a time paradox?
You may be approaching this from a scientific basis, whereas I am just thinking about it in terms of the […]

If Amy’s parents have been removed from the timeline by the Crack then she is a paradox

@HTPBDET – No, she isn’t. I really do feel a blogpost coming on, because this needs a diagram.

Broadly, when people are […]

Corden as the Baker. I can’t see that.

@HTPBDET – because of the character’s dramatic range, I take it? Probably why Corden wants to do it – if he can pull it off, it’s going to widen his casting quite a lot.

@HTPBDET –

The Universe in that timeline ends because the River Paradox, caused by Amy’s death,  is too big?

The Universe can cope with it. The TARDIS can’t. The Universe can’t cope with an exploding TARDIS – […]

@Shazzbot and @HTPBDET–

Do you think Hurt is Doctor Zero?

I meant Prisoner Zero = Doctor Zero in a metaphorical sense, not in a literal in-story way.

As to Hurt being ‘Doctor Zero’ that doesn’t necessarily […]

I agree with @stevethewhistle, @HTPBDET, @Shazzbot and others that the lighting and music left a lot to be desired. I watched it on my laptop, and was tremendously annoyed during the entire first episode that it […]

@HTPBDET and anyone else who follows musicals, Johnny Depp, and upcoming movies:

I’d mentioned Stephen Sondheim musicals in another thread. Speaking of Sondheim’s Into The Woods, Disney’s signed Johnny Depp […]

Happy that @Shazzbot is back and @HTPBDET is home even though subjected to the horror of the Twin Dilemma. The family is whole and well again and dancing but not to Glenn Millar, please. (Glenn Millar is on par […]

So happy for all this good news:

@Shazzbot‘s back!*

@HTPBDET‘s home!

Huzzah! Hip-hip-hooray! Happy dancing all around. The earth’s back in its proper orbit again ** and life is good.

DJ, some […]

@HTPBDET

I would like to clarify to others that using an expression like “a dreary disastrous dog turd” is not against the rules, or would even offend a Moderator (I feel I have used more robust language on […]

@Blenkinsopthebrave @ScaryB @Bluesqueakpip @HTPBDET @JanetteB

Thanks for all the thanks. It is very much appreciated. I do enjoy this forum, you all make it what it is.

I think I should clarify something […]

@HTPBDET and @ScaryB

No, I hadn’t read that particular quote. Please don’t watch the Twin Dilemma, though; since we knew that there are at least three Doctors in the fiftieth anniversary episode, a trinity or […]

@HTPBDET – I’m not convinced even the most ardent of spoiler adverse would regard a punishment quite that harsh as fitting for the crime.

@All but esp. @Craig – just wizzed through the above posts and wanted to […]

@HTPBDET

If Shazzbot were here, she would have swooped and moved my unthinking spoiler to Spoilers…

That was exactly what I thought too 🙂

but

I will do penance by watching an episode of Twin […]
