size is roughly 12 inches square. 49 pieces of paper.

I follow Barrowman on social media and got his autograph at Heroes and Villains FanFest back in November. I got to see his panel there as well. John is very much Captain Jack, and is very good with his fans. There’s a clip of him and Alex at a recent con on YouTube. He’s a total fanboy himself and his flamboyant nature really…[Read more]

@arbutus – I agree with you about perceptions. It colors everything we do in life. I can absolutely see her being so stuck in “he only has these 12 faces” that it never even occurs to her that something could happen and he could have more.…[Read more]

I don’t know if 10 said something like that, but 9 definitely did. At the end of Dalek.

DOCTOR: I’m the only one left. I win. How about that?
ROSE: The Dalek survived. Maybe some of your people did too.
DOCTOR: I’d know. In here. (his head) Feels like there’s no one.

Yes, but River had this, I don’t know how to call it, a wanted l…

Certainly she is insistent upon returning the diamond to the Helasi (?) but not without a hefty reward. Although I felt that part was somewhat confused what with the diamond happily falling into her partially diaphanous outfit and full bodice and the funny lines surrounding the scene: “I’m better than good” etc..- somewhat vain, River…

Some of my favorite moments:

– I think I’m going to need a bigger flowchart.

– Is this what you are like when I’m not . . .

– Hello Sweetie

– The implication that River “borrows” the TARDIS from time to time and he doesn’t notice. (I like to think she deliberately leaves something out of place…[Read more]

regarding Cleopatra from The Wedding of River Song:

DOCTOR: Did my best, dear. I showed up. You just can’t get the psychopaths these days. Love what you’ve done with the pyramids. How did you score all this?
RIVER: Hallucinogenic lipstick. Works wonders on President Kennedy.…[Read more]

for me, Clara is still just a companion.  I don’t see her as more, that’s why I’m ready to see her go.

that is also why she will need to be actually related to the doctor for me to accept her being so special.  River song was an…[Read more]

@arbutus – I would have preferred she stayed dead, however I would have been ok with her being the one with the memory wipe. Or even BOTH her and the doctor being wiped. I found her death in Face the Raven quite moving. And for a character that I really couldn’t care less what happens to, that’s saying a lot.…[Read more]

I made a new jacket.  (Well I bought a jacket and made it Doctor Who)

nothing on the back as of yet.

But for me, this  made the season feel a bit disjointed. It was a bit like the season where Matt Smith did the western, etc. And maybe you can get away with that when you have established the character and the arc of the Doctor (which they did brilliantly in Matt Smith’s first season as the Doctor), but I am not sure it…

Enjoy!

Just like you start reading words counter-clockwise from the bottom, your sentences should do the same.  (alternatively, you can write them somewhat linear from left to right)

I also dislike that translator because it…[Read more]

so does anyone watch Arrow/The Flash?  I was watching the preview for the spinoff “Legends of Tomorrow”  and about squealed myself to death.

jump to 1:57 for the best part!

“Any people who knew they could change sex at will would not choose a name like Susan for their child?”

Clearly somebody who is not familiars with the oeuvre of Johnny Cash.

Not to mention anyone who remembers this episode: 

I also felt the medication thing was a message to take our time and listen first, rather than just throw meds at it, which we do much to often in this day and age.

I really enjoyed this ep, and i really…[Read more]

There is a hand clearly visible a few frames earlier, but I maintain that that shadow is the arches.

As for the reflection in the spoon, I don’t see anything there. There are…[Read more]

I’m warming up to Clara more.  I think her “reading” of other people is just her looking into their eyes and seeing what most don’t, it might have something to do with her being a teacher (or maybe the reason she is a teacher).

She’s been doing that since Day of the Doctor.

CLARA: You wouldn’t. Because…[Read more]

Thanks for the info.

As much as I would love for that to happen, it just won’t. The BBC won’t allow anything to take focus off their current doctor. And it wouldn’t really be fair to Capaldi. I think the best we can hope for is to get some webisodes.

The Doctor made the assumption that the WitS and whoever put the message in the newspaper were the same, but it ain’t necessarily so.

This is true. The Doctor has been wrong before.

I’ll be really disappointed if it turns out to be River. Just because I want to see River one more time. I want to see her “Hello Sweetie” capdoc and have him tell her off. The thought of that just tickles me to no end. I have no idea why. I actually like River. But I don’t want her to keep coming…[Read more]

Missy feels like a stalker to the Doctor, not like someone who as actually ever been a part of his life. She comes across as…[Read more]

D: Are you alright back there? It’s a bit narrow isn’t it?
C: Any remarks about my hips will not be appreciated.
D: Ahh, your hips are fine, you’re built like a man.
C: Thanks.

LOL, I’m starting to warm up to Clara with this episode. She’s becoming a lot more human to me. If anything her slapping the Doctor helped with this.…[Read more]

C-DOCTOR: They’re waking from their tomb right now. You can either die or live on as one of us.
(Meanwhile, his right hand is writing Hit Me on a notepad.)
CLARA: The Doctor will stop you.
C-DOCTOR: He can’t even access the lips.
(Clara hits him. Hard.)
DOCTOR: Argh! Ow! Oh, that hurt. No, stop. Enough, Bit of pain,…[Read more]

Doctor: There was never a good Dalek. There was a broken Dalek and we repaired it.
Journey: You were supposed to be helping us.
Doctor: I gave it a shot. It was a Dalek, what did you expect.
Journey: No more talking, you are done. Ok new objective, we are taking this Dalek…[Read more]

Def no justification for that one either.

If Tasha’s not a personification of River, I honestly believe we were meant to think she was. So…[Read more]

DALEK: Information concerning the Doctor was harvested from the cadaver of Tasha Lem.
DOCTOR: Bet she never told you how to break through the Trenzalore forcefield, though. She’d have died first.
DALEK 2: Several times.
