@Bluesueakpip – nice work on the numbers!

And @HaveYouFedTheFish – love the idea of the other Doctors leaving messages for Clara / Eleven in time. I missed the scarf – a re-watch is required.

Clara told her […]

Has anyone else been watching “The Flesh” on BBC Three? Three part zombie story? It’s really good (The Fades good). I highly recommend it – won’t spoiler except to say “partially deceased syndrome”…

“Summer Falls”, and an Autumn leaf… and Christmas was definitely the winter of the Doctor’s discontent.

Death and rebirth (as per our Easter theme)?

Clara is resurrected in this episode. Twice previously […]

@Bluesqueakpip

Two Doctors again

Yes, it’s been a long-standing obsession of mine -going all the way back to “Amy’s Choice” and the Dream Lord and the two “realities”…

Agreed that we have no way to know […]

@JimtheFish I missed your “The Great Intelligence has been Doctorised” theory. But yes – bring me dark mirrors, bring me doppleganger Doctor, bring me the Doctor as light and dark versions of the Pied Piper […]

@Phaseshift – I know! And honestly, the nesting thing has really destroyed the feeling I used to have over there. I just violently dislike the consequent lack of continuity and flow.

Now why would The Great […]

@Chickenelly – nice to see the pipe of contemplation is in action once more!

@ScaryB – hope the demo went well! Couldn’t agree more on the skulduggery of the “bedroom tax”, introduced of course, by those with […]

Oh and how much do I hate that you cannot edit your posts on The Guardian. I have just spelled “dystopia” incorrectly and now I am covered in shame 🙂

Thanks again to our webmaster for our comfortable home here!

Hi comrades! Well, I just posted over on Dan Martin’s thread. He wasn’t that impressed, but actually I love it. Maybe it’s the holiday spirit but it could have been subtitled “a very British romp” or “the ’60s Mon […]

Right – time to go forth and get supplies before the TARDIS lands! We will be able to “live blog” here on the sofa! See some of you folks here amongst the comfy cushions later 🙂

Hi folks! Is that coffee I smell @ScaryB? Mmmmmnnnnn

I’ve got so much catching up to do. I think I saw news somewhere that Barrowman has confirmed he won’t be involved in the 50th? A damn shame if true.

Re […]

@JimtheFish and @Phaseshift I can confirm your deductions – I looked our friend up on the Grauniad pages once and a blog was listed called…. Truculent Sheep (it had, I might add, about three followers).

@Phaseshift

Haha I doubt VERY much I could write anything that would tempt you to watch The Vampire Diaries.

However… you know I like a challenge 🙂

I am still drowning in work alas, but a semblance of […]

@PhaseShift – thanks – looks good!

There’s also the 50th Trailer here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8g5BrLm7uQ&feature=player_embedded

(sorry if someone has already posted this!)

Oh sorry @JimtheFish, my bad – didn’t see you’d already posted the “discovered scripts” news just upstream! That’s what comes of swimming in too many time-streams at once 🙂

Hi folks,

I found this little piece of news – some original (unused) Dr. Who scripts by Anthony Coburn (who created the TARDIS) just discovered <a […]

@Whisht

That IS a really great idea. It actually gave me a chill because, huge cheesy “I am Spartacus” reference or not, I think it would be a very powerful participatory tribute to the show at the 50th […]

@Chickenelly Yes – thanks for the photo links! I see the bow-tie now has spots and dots and patterns and plots and OMG I need to write a treatise on this 🙂

@Phaseshift Oh I am SERIOUSLY tempted by the […]

@Whisht Hmm – now I look more closely it’s not a cyberman is it – it’s the K1 robot from Tom Baker’s first story, right?

@Phaseshift I haven’t even looked at the new profiles page. I can’t keep track of my digital footprint as it is – aargh Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror IS right – it’s a nightmare…

Honestly, we’re not trying […]
