I must admit, I quite like the idea of renaming the Pub each time. Why stick with one pub when you can have a pub crawl through genre fiction? Instead of saying “on one of the previous threads I linked to ….” You can say well, “back in the Rose and Crown, etc. “
So genre themed pubs. I like The Leaky Cauldron. You get a…[Read more]

@scaryB @arbutus @Juniperfish @purofilion
Many thanks for the Birthday wishes. I ache and feel every inch my 45 years.
The “day” was limited because it’s amazing the amount of people who will decline an invitation to a “Beer’n’bangers” party to be held at 8a.m. I don’t know what the world is coming to? 😀
I’ve said in the past that I love…[Read more]

Cath Annabel commented on the post, Death and the Doctor
@Juniperfish I agree with you – I can take any amount of horrid chomping and hacking and slicing on TWD in preference to the sadistic, callous but bloodless brutality of Osgood’s death. My point was I guess about […]

Oh, oh, it seems I misread “huggiest” and “snoggiest” as “huggable” and snoggable”. Not to worry, I stand by my ranking. Of course, it we were to include all Time Lords, and not just […]

I always rated it as:
- Eccleston – hasn’t been out with girls yet. But pretends he has.
- Tennant: still hasn’t twigged that he’s hot, but is willing to give this whole ‘dating’ thing a […]

@arbutus @Juniperfish Eleven was the huggiest, but Ten the snoggiest.

@Juniperfish Oh, I think Eleven wins the prize for Huggiest Doc Ever!

@ScaryB Thinking about it, more or less just going on natural hair, I thought you might make a good 2, or 10 (we could fashion you a massive quiff!)
@juniperfish could maybe do a good 3 or 5 or (somebody has to do it – 6!) or maybe even 11.
Just my random thoughts…
I will obviously have to wear a wig, so no reason anybody else can’t though.

@Phaseshift and @FatmaninaBox – Thanks for the heads up on the BBC programme, Tomorrow’s Worlds: The Unearthly History of Science Fiction. That looks really good.
@Juniperfish Which Doctor for me? Would have to be Hartnell, I love the frock coat style, and it’s black! There again I do love hats and I’ve already got a Tom Baker scarf (extra lon…[Read more]

Like @juniperfish, I think this was one of RTD’s misses. I know it was probably just a derivation of ding-dong with maybe a bit of Morlock thrown in, which he definitely […]

@Juniperfish I too have been meaning to add that I’m very sorry you’ve been ill for so long. I do hope that you get better soon. At least in time to participate in our calendar! Am sending good thoughts and vibes. x
@Mudlark The calendar is, if it ever happens, going to be a gender-bending tribute to the Master/Missy – women as The Doctor, men as…[Read more]

@Juniperfish Very sorry to see that you are still unwell.
Which Doctor do you fancy dressing up as for the Doctor Who Forum calendar?
I know this wasn’t addressed to me, but I have nevertheless given the matter some thought. I don’t see myself as any of the Doctors but, given my erstwhile profession I ought to appear as River. Trouble is, al…[Read more]

“Thundering bellend” is my current favourite pair of words!
(belated) thank you

(@Purofilion the XD was with you in mind btw!! You can learn so much on this Forum 😉 Personally, I doubt I’d ever have come across such things as shipping, slash fiction or even the joys of cosplay if it hadn’t been for here!! 😉 (Looking at you Ms @Ju…[Read more]

PhaseShift replied to the topic The Curse of Fenric part 1
That’s excellent if you’re new to this era, because it will be interesting to hear your thoughts as the story develops – particularly the Doctor/Ace dynamic.
Anybody else who hasn’t sampled McCoy, or experienced Ace and this story is very welcome as well.
There is a generally held belief that this period of the show saw it trying…[Read more]

No wonder the Master willed himself to death.
It was the Doctor’s speech, I swear. Tennant did his best, but anyone facing the prospect of more of those sanctimonious speeches […]

My least favourite Master scene was definitely Tenant crying over Sim’s body, and it should have been glorious, that tenderness between the Master and the Doctor, but it was too hammy for my […]

@Pedant Thanks for posting the Autumn depping for Linda Lee review 🙂 (@Juniperfish – did you see that?)
So, I’m guessing Autumn is about 3/4 (if her sister is about 6). Her reaction is very interesting with ref to the “is Dr Who too scary/dark for kids?” question. The bodies feeling stuff after death goes completely over her head – it’s the c…[Read more]

So now I have read through all the posts some comments,
I have to disagree with @phMO and others who have remarked about a “lack of fun” this series. I have found it to have many LOL moments. The style of humour is different to that of the M.S. era. It is juxtaposed against the more sombre overall tone of the series but those moments are there…[Read more]

THE END IS NEAR….
(Sob) I shall whip my slaves until they agree to play those minature violins I purchased for them. We have a number of weeks between now and Christmas, and Doctor 12 re-appears.Yes – it seems so short, and if parting is such sweet sorrow
BUT IT HAS BEEN PREPARED FOR.
