    @FatManInABox Also a great story 🙂 (and yours @Whisht)

    The narrow escapes and egregious escapades of The Doctor Who Forum seems like a blog all of its own.

    Ugh – every now and then I get a flash-back to the Absorbalov episode.

    @Timeloop I like it – someone he saved from the wreckage.

    Nice work @Craig on spam clean-up as usual – we were at 1000 members earlier I saw, but some with “bot” names 🙂 Thank you for site house-work.

    @Bluesqueakpip Yikes, that was a lucky escape. I got stuck in Budapest with a friend probably around the same era. and also as part of an inter-railing trip, on a Sunday with no money and all we could…[Read more]

  • @Phaseshift Schrodinger’s cat, I trust!

    Wow – I haven’t been in this section for a while – so much lovely creative stuff.

    Rockin’ Matt portraits from @JimtheFish and @Wolfweed and pillows from @EnglishmaninNC

    Glad to see art is being credited to the fan artists in question too. Should we also, I wonder, @Wolfweed @Craig @Phaseshift @JimtheFish a…[Read more]

  • @Phaseshift Thanks for writing this. I used to listen to a couple of old tapes of Tom Baker as the Doctor when I was a kid but have not otherwise ventured into the world of Big Finish. The McGann stories do sound […]

    <laughs> Thanks for the “golden plug” award @Phaseshift , which I see can also handily be used as a dummy to shut up the over-zealous plugger if required 🙂

    There were so many great cosplayers at the event. Including someone as one of those very creepy dolls from the Mark Gattis’ episode “Night Terrors”.  

    I just love it as a popular art fo…[Read more]

  • @ardaraith I haven’t seen them, but I will do a double-fishy two bow-ties dance of joy if dark Eleven (Valeyard) vs Eleven comes to fruition.

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic Doctor Who News (2)

    @Wolfweed Thanks for spotting that 🙂 @Craig was hiding behind the camera carrying the six different bags I thought it was a good idea to drag round with me (lol – not quite that bad). Linda Lee was a total sweetie.

    I was dressed as a future female version of the Doctor for anyone wondering! Suck it, haters! 🙂 That includes Peter Davidson unf…[Read more]

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic On The Sofa (3)

    Hey Who sofa-surfers, as we skate towards Christmas and the <sob> departure of Matt Smith.

    @Shazzbot I just wanted to tell you again how thoughtful your presents and certificates were for the 50th Doctor Who Forum meet-up – they made the evening!

    @ScaryB I just watched The Last Day prequel to The Day of the Doctor – thanks for the tip, I’d m…[Read more]

  • @Wolfweed Thanks for the clip. Does it count as a spoiler?

    I ask before I rant discuss 🙂

    I love Matt’s Doctor in so many ways; the darkness in him, the Chaplinesque physical comedy, the dress sense, the old, old eyes in a young body… 

    But this clip showcases an aspect of the way Moff  and team sometimes (not always) writes for him which I r…[Read more]

  • Juniperfish commented on the post, The Five-ish Doctors

    @ScaryB Thought you’d enjoy it!

    The fact it was made with full Beeb collaboration and managed both to convey genuine disappointment and sanguine self-deprecation on the part of the spurned ex Doctors raised all […]

  • @Bluesqueakpip and @ardaraith the votes for a Who nativity scene of sorts are piling up… excellent!

    I’d love to see River on-screen one more time before Smith goes, maybe Amy and Rory too. 

    It would be time-travel-tastic (that sounds like an Eleven-ism) if River and the Doctor’s daughter had been adopted by Amy and Rory (her grand…[Read more]

  • Lol @Shazzbot – now where else can you get ARSE definition from sitting on the sofa and blogging! 🙂

     

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic Doctor Who News (2)

    Apologies if someone has posted this already but it’s a rather nice interview with both Neil Gaiman and Terrence Dicks about the upcoming 50th.

    I really liked hearing what Dicks had to say in particular as, like many here, I grew up devouring his TARGET novels:

  • Wild Christmas speculation (with a promise I have not seen any of the spoilers that are, perhaps, out there – this is genuine speculation!)

    Doubling – are we done with it?

    We’ve had many a story involving two time streams and those proved to be narrative foreshadowing (yay bow-tie obsession)  culminating in the “Day of the Doctor” and the two t…[Read more]

  • @ScaryB Lol 🙂 Well you know all about “shipping” now and you have that newly acquired Doctorate of Squeeee thanks to @Shazzbot !

    Let us know what you think of the Five-ish Doctors – I think there’s a thread for it somewhere 🙂

     

     

  • @ScaryB  You can find the “FishDr” which is actually the “Five(ish) Doctors Reboot” on the Doctor Who BBC website at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01m3kfy

    It’s great! 🙂

     

  • Oh and @wolfweed LOL at the image of Murdoch as Davros in charge of the spoiler machine!

    Also @WhoHar sorry your post about the Silence being behind the Doctor’s memory loss got ignored.

    We’ve had the explanation that Eleven’s memory loss is due to PTSD as a result of trying to live with his war crimes in “The Day of the Doctor” but I am very…[Read more]

  • So who wants to lay a Who bet (with a fond toast to @HTPBDET who enjoyed betting on the upcoming plots of Who!) that there will be a baby in a crib (the Doctor’s old Time Lord crib to be precise) for Christmas?

    This also fits in with the Osiris myth going on under the surface, as Horus was conceived by Isis after she put Osiris’ scattered body…[Read more]
