@bluesqueakpip–

good luck with NaNoWriMo — always meant to have a go myself. Maybe next year…. Hope it goes well….

@craig — Sorry to hear that. Obviously hope that it’s going to be the latter too. Hope it’s all not too stressful — although obviously it always is.

Take care.

@wolfweed — I’ve always loved that picture of the Voord with the watches. (The true reason for the invasion of Marinus? To set up a budget jewellery concession?)

To be honest, I’ve found these episodes a bit of a slog, so I’ll probably just remain an interested observer for the Aztecs….

@wolfweed—

Yeah, saw that. Almost impossible to get hold of, I reckon. Though it may show up at collectors fairs and what have you. No indication of what this ‘signature collection’ might be though. I’d be very disappointed if it was just a collection of signatures, for example…

@wolfweed —

Cheers for that, especially the designs. I really like Cusick’s work, not least because it points to a time in the BBC’s history when it had whole armies of these guys who seemed to look upon what would now be considered jobs as High Creatives from a kind of National Service-inflected just-a-job technician point of view.

@wolfweed—

@bluesqueakpip—

@winston—

I totally want to see 12 meeting Susan just for that to happen….

I’m sure I used to go to a goth nightclub called The Velvet Web….

Yes, that was a fun ep too. The Brains of Morphoton were surprisingly creepy and have stood the test of time — although they were surprisingly obliging with the exposition.

Lots of other fine Who tropes on show here too. Like hiding just slightly behind a pillar will instantly…[Read more]

For all the Big Finish fans, the core cast of An Adventure in Time and Space are going to reprise their roles for Big Finish.

Could be very interesting.

@bluesqueakpip—

Yes, must admit I did think I was being a bit harsh. But then again, I will always be a bit harsh on Nation. Can’t help but feel he deserves it…. 🙂

Certainly I think he’s still chanelling his own childhood influences in these first two series and it’s not until Dalek Invasion of Earth that he gets a bit more interesting when…[Read more]

Well, that was quite fun.

First of all, going by her behaviour I’m less and less inclined to think of Susan as any kind of Time Lord. She’s much too much of a wuss. I get that that was how teenage girls were written back then but still.

As @whisht pointed out, the TARDIS crew was much more even-handed in those days (which is rather in the eye…[Read more]
