    Just got my A150 module result back today- 74% for the exam- context: when I took the exam, I made a major boo-boo on the first question, let’s just say I originally wrote an answer on a text taken from a 20th […]

    Yeah me to. Bit weird- ‘I like your profile’ my profiles completely blank! ’email me so you can see my pictures’ bah. I suppose this means this website has ‘arrived’- we even get spam! swings and roundabouts…

    @JWalker– it’s an interesting argument- that it’s not that the Doctor is ‘fundamentally male’, but that he has qualities which are, just as erroneously I think, not associated with men, or not on screen.

    @Juniperfish– I think the many many possibilities of a Clara-Dalek companion is probably one of Moffit’s gifts to the internet. It’s right out there now- not quite, but a whisper away from cannon. Almost as though […]

    and then I log into facebook at find this, which along with @Bluesqueakpip‘s comments, makes me feel vindicated!

    @hallucigeniclipstick– welcome! and yes. Bill Hicks and Dr Who are two of my favourite things.

    @Bluesqueakpip– they were even saying, along with calling us weirdos, ‘why don’t you call the RSCPA then?’ I wasn’t sure of their logic. We said we weren’t calling the RSCPA because it wasn’t a cruelty case. Last […]

    @Bluesqueakpip– Wonderful suggestion, if only… ‘Mind your own business’ indeed. Horrible people. We had to drive off in the end because they were getting out of the car and my boyfriend was getting ready to hit […]

    Well I know its early but need a quick drink. Just got into a row in Morrison’s carpark when I went to pick up my paper. There was a car with two dogs in. The owner had left the windows partly open, and left […]

  • @JimTheFish– I’m glad you took up my suggestion. I had read very positive things about it, mostly along the lines of surprise at how well it worked, but I didn’t have sky when it was on. And anything that uses […]

    re: troll, I’m tempted to assume this is an attempt at humour, given the Rock Hudson/Captain Jack comments. The problem is, this ‘humour’ has rather homophobic aspects, i.e. the ‘joke’ that the next doctor should […]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic The Next Doctor?

    @Juniperfish, the interesting thing about relating to female characters, is that it doesn’t seem to have been the case that only women read, for example, gothic novels, which frequently involved female characters […]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic The Next Doctor?

    @Juniperfish– I do think this debate is raising some interesting issues.

    A: is it that the overall characterisation of the doctor (sorry, brief pause for a cheer that I correctly spelt ‘characterisation’ […]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic The Next Doctor?

    @PhaseShift– I think I like your comments on @DanMartinUK‘s more than I did his actual comment: ‘his strengths and his weaknesses are, to me, fundamentally male. He is impatient and petulant and always think he’s […]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic The Next Doctor?

    I thank that since not only Smith, but Eccles and Tennant had solid theatrical experience behind them, we should be looking at stage actors. It makes sense, the role is high pressure and requires a great deal of […]

  • Miapatrick replied to the topic The Next Doctor?

    Also heartbroken. And I agree the next doctor should be older. Smith and Tennant played very different doctors, but I think there is a limit to how many different ways a young looking, very energetic doctor can be […]

  • @PhaseShift– agreed. I also think it is possibly the best work the two actors have ever done.

    Regarding age- I think I was just a little younger when I first saw it, but not far off ten. I sometimes think […]

  • It really does. One thing that struck me finally re-watching it, was how much I remembered. Which resulted on an odd mixture of familiarity and disturbance- I was so familiar to being disturbed by this.
