@ichabod. The Gril who Died.
I began wondering, as I haven’t seen this for a while and then not much. It turns out both of us are right.
DW says he’s sick of losing twice, and it’s the second time he says ‘sick of losing people.’
Thumbs up.

I too have watched various interpretations, Robert downey Jnr, being the worst, and have found that Jeremy Brett made a superb Holmes – I’ve got the box set.
The Moffat crew haven’t written the stories word for word, they more or less said that, but every story has an element of the original in it. Becasue of them, I’ve re-read all the ACD stories and enjoyed them all over again.

As was I, after so many complaints from so called fans. It was a brilliant piece of writing.
No, I haven’t heard of this. Thank you for mentioning it.Missy
24 September 2016 at 12:10 #54018@ichabod: I haven’t watched this episode much, so I may have got it wrong. But I thought that is what he said, because Clara tells him that he hasn’t lost he’s won, to which he tells her he meant “people.” Or words to that affect.

Thumbs up.

Excellent point – and it won an Emmy.
Missy
23 September 2016 at 11:33 #53999I keep being prevented from logging on here. It’s damned annoying.
Who ar these SURE SUPPORT people?
Missy
23 September 2016 at 11:30 #53998@missrori; What a read, and you could be right, his heart’s did need to be mended. he has lost so many people.
“I’m so sick of losing” he says in The girl who died.” anyway, your theory sounds as good as any other, thank you for that. You too @ichabod
Missy
23 September 2016 at 11:21 #53997Anyone fancy “Miss Peregrines’ Home for Peculiar Children?* We hope to see it in the next week or two.
Missy
19 September 2016 at 09:27 #53973@jgalt7: What an interesting idea. He does have a daughter though ( a David Tennant episode)I’ve been waiting for her to re-appear.
As for being explained, I can be a bit thick at times snd it still hasn’t. *rolls eyes*
Missy
19 September 2016 at 09:20 #53972@mudlark: No I remember the events well and it’s true that the realisation of betrayal dawns on the Master, after listening to the Doctor.
He knew that the Doctor wouldn’t shoot, so he sacrifices himself and sends Galifrey back to where it belongs. So , to my mind, it’s the Mater who destroys Rassilon. also, you weren’t butting in, I meant this for all the members and am glad of your input. I think you’re right too, it was just an idea to kick around.
@blenkinsopthebrave: Heaven Sent has been watched in this house more than any other episode of any other series (with Husbands of River Song close behind) and up to a point I agree about the ‘mind palace.” Howver, if the doctor has to do some serieous thinking, he would need a similar place – obviously The Tardis. The duty of care scene, is indeed heartbreaking.
@pedant: Yes, I mentioned it somewhere on here. Suresupport I believe it’s called.
Missy
19 September 2016 at 09:05 #53971Son of Puro: Unlike B7 or like B7 or unlike something else?
I meant B5. *blushes profusely*
@ichabod: Spiders terrify me.
Janette: Oh, the Red Dwarf, superb series.
@blenkinsopthebrave: I remember that conversation – insane, but funny.
Missy
17 September 2016 at 03:35 #53945@ichabod: I loved it. Watched some on Youtube recently. do you rememebr The Shadows? Like big black spiders, they still make me shudder.
@blenkinsopthebrave; I read an interview with CE yesterday. He regrets not doing a second series. He would like to have developed the character more, but it seems that the writers wanted him to play it their way, so he left. Such a pity, I preferred him to Matt Smith, who could be just plain daft at times.<
@pedant: All right ‘picky’ my mistake. *big grin* such a shame either way, I keep hoping the TV staions will re run it.Janette: I too enjoyed Blake’s Seven, until I watched an episode on Youtube. It has become really dated, unlike B7.
Missy
17 September 2016 at 03:22 #53944Why series 9 was not as popular is a mystery to me. It is by far the best series to date – in my opinion.
I did really enjoy most of RTD’s episdoes though, he was so enthusiastic, almost like a child himself.
Missy
17 September 2016 at 03:16 #53943@winston: Couldn’t agree more about the 12 th Doctor, he’s the best. there is something very human about this Doctor. He has all the qualities we do, his biggest being tactlessness. He hides his true feelings by being irascible.
I have always felt his vulnerability. PC is so right for the part.
Missy
17 September 2016 at 03:06 #53942I hope that I don’t miss anyone, but you would not believe the trouble I have had getting on to the forum. Every time I tried this notice appeared: SURESUPPORT and suggested I click onto their site – I didn’t naturally. When it was clear, I didn’t have the time – now finally……..
@mudlark: …. in The End of Time which you referred to, when he confronted and defeated Rassilon himself.
This sounds picky and perhaps I’ve got the wrong end of the stick, but surely it was the Master who defeated Rassilon?
@ichabod: Of course, I agree with you. Nothing is perfect, life would be very dull if it were.
I’ve enjoyed reading all the posts and have nothing to add. As mentioned I’m not at all analytical, which on this forum is a pity. However, one interesting moment came up whilst I was watching BAD WOLF last night. DW and Rose meet the Emperor of the Daleks and he tells of harvesting the dregs of human society, filleting and pulping them, and using the best of the bunch to breed a new Dalek race to which rose exclaims ; “That makes them half human!”
What say you on the Hybrid- if there really is a Hybrid – being half Human half Dalek
Missy
9 September 2016 at 11:54 #53886@ichabod: Who nose! Not heing a fan of Star trek or Star wars, I care little.
I did however quite enjoy Babylon 5 and then they took it off?
Missy
9 September 2016 at 11:48 #53885<div class=”bbp-reply-author”><span class=”useratname”>@thehumantimelord: No, I’m still waitng for news of it being aired over here in OZ.</span></div>

<div class=”bbp-reply-content”></div>9 September 2016 at 11:33 #538849 September 2016 at 11:30 #53883@ichabod: I get what you are saying, but unlike you I rather enjoyed the “”is me.” Of course this doesn’t mean that he IS the Hybrid, but who knows what it means, when the writers get the bit between their teeth aything goes.
Son of P: No, you ‘re not the only one. I too found the episode terrific. Like Icabod, I feel that I shouldn’t watch it so much, but to be frank I cannot resist it – and I do try …honestly. *blushes*
The only other epi I watch a lot is “Husbands of River Song”. It’ s so good to find that the Doctor has a romantic streak.
@mudlark: Thank you for your very interesting take on the Hybrid puzzle. I am not an analytical person, so I read all opinions with acute interest. I wonder if we will ever find out the truth of the matter. for all we know, Missy could be the hybrid – if it actually exsists.. This could be exciting – hurry up April 2017.
Missy
4 September 2016 at 05:46 #53844Right, my fellow enthusiasts/nutters, I have a query.
When River is unpacking her bag to recieve the ‘head’ does she, or does she not, bring out a Fez?
I’ve looked at it in slow motion and the object looks too soft – then again?
What say you all?
Missy
4 September 2016 at 05:43 #53843Thanks for that ichabod. *thumbs up*
Missy
4 September 2016 at 05:42 #53842I couldn’t see any flaws, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t any. I was so entranced with the script, the acting, the music and the special effects, that I was oblivious to any short comings. It was pure joy to watch, which I have, over and over and over and over again! My husband says that I’m obsessed – he’s right. *grins*
Missy
3 September 2016 at 09:05 #53838@gamergirlavatar: I am sure that you and I are not alone.
@ichabod: Afterwards, I tuned into the music from “Husbands of River Song”
You can find almost anything on Youtube.
Missy
3 September 2016 at 09:01 #53836Hello there and welcome. My favourite Doctor is 12, and creatures Cybermen.
Missy
<div class=”bbp-reply-content”></div>3 September 2016 at 08:57 #53834@brewski: Good for you. thank’s for posting.
I’ve just started reading “Master Humphrey’s Clock” by Charles Dickens. It’s a new on on me, so should be interesting.
Missy
2 September 2016 at 12:41 #53828At this very moment I’m listening to the music from “Heaven Sent” on YouTube. superb.
Missy
1 September 2016 at 11:41 #538251 September 2016 at 11:26 #53824@ichabod: Camels? Really? But those *feet* — seriously alien-looking feet, actually, so maybe that’s the attraction?
And whafs’ wrong with their feet pray? Ideal for desert rambles. My attraction are their faces, large brown eyes and a “don’t push your luck” exprssion.

My computer is a tower, not a lap top. I also have this need to give inanimate objects names, instead of constantly saying “my computer.”
So everyone, meet REX.
Missy
24 August 2016 at 10:55 #53764@thehumantimelord I’m new here and I’ve never been on a forum before and was wondering if you guys could let me know on some etiquette and let me know how this works if you guys don’t mind.
Hello there I think it’s simply a matter of not being insulting, or swearing too much. have a look at Etiquette at the top of the page.
Missy
24 August 2016 at 10:48 #53763Yes, PC is my favourite too, although the former three Doctors had plenty to offer. My great wonder, is how Murray Gold manages to make the theme music fit each Doctor, it’s astonishing. I too look forward to his meeting new people, he can be so rude and funny at the same time.
Missy
24 August 2016 at 10:21 #53762@missrori Some people still don’t see him, I guess…
There loss, our gain.
@ichabod: A very good point. Terry Prachett, had a way with words and with looking at the world. I’ve all his Disc World books.
@winston: Count me in on that one. *thumbs up*
@ichabod: Wherever S10 goes, it’s going to take one he Hell of a trick to pull it off successfully for such a mixed bag of viewers. Good luck to ’em. The talent is there, but I think they’re going to need the luck, too.
I’ve a sinking feeling that you might be right. On can only holds one’s breath and hope.
PuroSolo …..funny, we get magic and ….magic and for those episodes we get fans hating it. When given superb drama, such as last year, it’s craven folly and “too dark”.
People will always be people, and there is no hope of pleasing evceryone. I cannot understand why some viewers hate it so?
@puroandson:the ,ore fans like us who express agreement with Moffat and his style the luckier we all are. Like many people who are stuck in bed all day, or have reached an age where little that’s on telly appeals (most of it showing busty women in short skirts, nasty men with appalling humour etc) we need to stick together and cheer for our show. Hopefully we can protect it for those who come next and who love the rippling changes which Moffat and Co. happily provide and which will continue after his contract’s finished.
A very hearty hear, hear to that. I could quote and quote, all of you are saying what I feel.
Long live Peter Capaldi say I.
Missy
24 August 2016 at 09:59 #5376123 August 2016 at 10:04 #53736Good point, but as my husband would say “it’s in the script.” I must admit to not noticing this.
Missy
23 August 2016 at 09:57 #53735True. I mean look at thr difference between 9-10-11 and now 12. All the latter liked ahug, but this Doctor, doesn’t.
He’s very different from the first three.
Missy
23 August 2016 at 09:51 #53734ichabod:
Hugs and all; it gets a but rocky up here in the mid-plus seventies, but f**k it, I ain’t dead yet! 2 miles on the treadmill at the gym Friday, that much at least tomorrow, trying to get the bones back in shape after lots of calcium loss. Sleeping life away, as calcium is a soporofic, so . . . dopey, sleepy, lotsa coffee (great little shop three minutes away by car, lovely artsy kids all sweet and pretty and tattooed to pieces serving the most yummy espresso, though they *will* call me “Susan”, which is not my name).
Ah, well. What’s in a name, right? We tell each other our dreams, now and then, and they always have a copy of the NY Times that I can sit and read, lovely hum of conversation around me, art on the walls, what a pleasure. I am SO LUCKY I can hardly bloody stand it, sometimes. And will not *dare* complain, when the luck turns, as in time it must. Can’t believe this lifetime is almost run! Seriously — 77 in October, hard to believe. What am I doing hanging out with these sweet, pretty children? Talking about dreams, the news, TV, their kidlets.
Never imagined I would be so — happy, getting old like this, and with a husband slowly sinking into Alzheimers death. It’s the damnedest thing — my dreams tell me a final efflorescence is coming. Yeah, well, maybe . . . if I don’t fall down the damn front stairs first! We shall see. Must admit, I’m a teeny tad drunk tonight . . . the Docs want me to take Fosamax or another drug of that class, to remineralize my arms and spine, but I say it’s spinach and I say the Hell with it — that stuff invites mandibular necrosis, or death of the jawbone, and can also have the exact *opposite* effect of the one intended, making weakened bones even weaker. Screw that. I’m going the Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine route, and see where that takes me.
Is okay regardless — another decade, and I’m done and glad of it. Too old to take on the wretched mess my generation has left to our posterity, poor things. MUST sleep — thanks, missy, for your good wishes and concern, and kisses right back.
You poor girl! I can call you that as I turned 78 (going on 12) last month so am older than you. *chuckle*
Why do the young women call you Susan? Sounds like a wonderful shop/cafe, all the art work and youngsters flitting around – tattoos notwithstanding. There are people who do not realise just how lucky they are. fortunately, me and my – shocking grammar, but what the hell – husband are well aware of this fact.
As for hanging around the pretty sweet things, we get on with the younger generation better than our own age group, mostly because a lot of old codgers our age, act it. Life could definitely be a lot worse, so more power to your elbow say I – and keep on dreaming.
Missy XX
p.s. Don’t fall down the front steps, or if you must, do it gracefully!
23 August 2016 at 09:37 #5373323 August 2016 at 09:33 #53732>@thedentistofdavros: <I too would visit the past first and then go out to space and see all those wonderful planets out there. I’m a bit fearful of the future so would probably avoid it anyway if I go back in time I could save all the missing Doctor
<Good thnking, I would do the same.</div>
@janetteb<
My sentiments exactly. I’d want to see if Henry VIII was as big a toerag as he seemed. have a good look at Richard III and see what he really looked like – oh, lots of things.Missy
22 August 2016 at 06:49 #53721Bloody hell! You have been in the wars m’dear. You are the one who has a right to be depressed, not me.
What are they doing about your thyroid?
We are better – thank you. *blows kiss*
Missy
22 August 2016 at 06:43 #53720Puro ‘s Son
Yes thank you, much better, even the depression has lifted. What made it worse was that I had nothing to be depressed about, thus made me even more depressed about being depressed – as it were. *rolls eyes*
My choice would be the past. I should, like you, want to see how some things were done. If rumours of famous or infamous people were true. The formation of Earth.
The future doesn’t interest me at all, if it had all gone to pot it would upset me, so next would be other planets.
Missy
21 August 2016 at 05:38 #53715Puricle.
Thank you. It’s the depression you are left with that’s the real killer!
We heard that it was rife in Queensland too. A good friend of ours has escaped it’s grasp – so far.
Missy
21 August 2016 at 05:30 #53714Just for fun.
If there were such a being as a Time Lord called the Doctor, who roamed the Universe in a Tardis, and you had a chance to accompany him for a while – (takes deep breath) -which would you choose.
The past? The future? Any planet available? All three?
Missy
P.s. Good interview pedant.
21 August 2016 at 05:22 #53713Now I know what “leftovers” means.
Missy
20 August 2016 at 07:21 #53703Speaking of nasty diseases, there is a real nasty making its way around WA at the moment.
Both my OH and I are still getting over it.
