    @monochromedimension wasn’t the monk some kind of proto Master OK I  have only ever watched clips from the story, but from what I could gather the Monk was  very Masterish (now there is a coined word dont blast me grammerand spelling Dalek  🙂 )

    @Devilishrobby – With all of the comments about how terribly manipulative the Second Doctor is, I do wonder if the gist is I shouldn’t like him or I should? I’m pretty sure that his Doctor has a dark side and trickster side, like every Doctor do. Even so, it hasn’t changed my impression that the Tenth is a good alien and very charming, lots of…[Read more]

    It’s quite true about Hurndall. I was quite a young fan in the Appreciation Society (early teens) at the time and got a lot of the fanzines and newsletters. Man – they went crazy that year. Full of what you might charitably term “green crayon” letters. I gave up in the end.

    I think irrespective of whether Tom regretted it later, I’m sure you’ll agree it was his decision to make based on what he felt at the time. Same with Eccles. The amount of vitriol from certain over-emotional elements of fandom could be alarming even before the invention of t’internet*.

    @tomsscarf  and @MonochromeDimension – Thank you so very much for the suggestions! I will put those episodes on my viewing list for this weekend. And yes, that’s my impression of the Second Doctor, that he’s very sweet, which I know I will love. And I suspect that he’s the very Doctor that my grandmother and great grand enjoyed the most.…[Read more]

    That gif never gets old. 😀 I don’t think I’d count Space Museum as my “go to” episode for the first Doctor in most circumstances, but there are interesting elements to it.

  • PhaseShift replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @monochromedimension

    I look forward to your comments. Actually, I almost threw a spoke in the works after catching up on the Time of the Doctor threads, and noted some ongoing confusion about how the Doctor could change the outcome of Trenzalore. I was going to suggest a rewatch of Space Museum. Arguably the Doctors first “Trenzalore” – he chang…[Read more]

    @MonochromeDimension – Wow! I’m just a half of inch taller than the Seventh! lol. Yes, “The Five Doctors” was the only episode that I seen the Second and Third together. They’re bickering is hilarious, I agree. I look forward to finding more crossover someday soon. I have to take them one weekend at a time, as time is too sparse for me during t…[Read more]

    @monochromedimension

    Don’t worry – I’ve made a note of your and @arbutus nomination of Genesis of the Daleks (and his alternative of Seeds of Doom). They are both additions to the pretty wide range of Fourth Doctor stories nominated. I publish the list nearer the time if we are showing the Doctors in Order to finalise. Front-runner (just) is Deadl…[Read more]

    @MonochromeDimension – Yeah, I do understand, the scenery there is beautiful. It’s true of a lot of states, but the politics and laws there is enough to drive anyone crazy. Arizona is a bit too occupied with race and sexual orientation right now, denying rights to many and making crazy laws to enforce their bigotry. Of course, not all citizens…[Read more]

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @MonochromeDimension – Ack… skip Arizona, completely, you wouldn’t like it there. lol. Just some friendly advice! And yes, most people from the UK love Florida for some reason. I never been to Florida yet… just a few states in my country: Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and now currently in Minnesota.  😉

    @MonochromeDimension – Yes, that’s a very pretty one! I love it! 😀

    I did come across this Dalek one today, although not as pretty:

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @MonochromeDimension – Oh, I know. I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to vent to you specifically. I’m just a tad annoyed and frustrated with myself for mentioned the term “nerdy” in the first place, because I see a theme appearing here now of mentioning “nerdy” before everything, which was never my intent at all. Honestly, it’s not considered an insult…[Read more]

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic General Music thread

    @MonochromeDimension – Oh, which song? Do you mean the “Timelord Victorious” one or the earlier theme of “Gallifrey”? I love the Gallifrey one because of the clockwork within it. I have that in common with you, I happen to love clocks and as I child I would take clocks apart and then put them back together again. I horrified my mother with this, a…[Read more]

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @MonochromeDimension – Yes… sometimes I wish I had a Tardis so I can go back in time and “undo” something I’ve stated or done. I had no idea that the “nerdy” comment would be taken so seriously here and I didn’t mean any offense by it. Nor am I concern with the label of it, for me DW is very awesome, and I do not care if many of my peers in the…[Read more]

    @MonochromeDimension

    You know what I want to watch? ‘The Stolen Earth/Journey’s End’, I haven’t watched it properly since transmission

    Well, it’s one that RTD wrote, so we should get round to it during the rewatch. 🙂

    Forgot to say that the hat and sweater look really good.

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic General Music thread

    @MonochromeDimension – The Tenth is my most favorite, besides the Fourth. But I agree, this is a seriously sad scene. I wanted to add a more happy song, but couldn’t think of one… as the best ones are posted already… I think. Besides this one, but it’s just another version of the “I’m The Doctor” theme:

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @MonochromeDimension – Ah, I see now. Thanks for elaborating and not exterminating. 😀

    I’m slowly making my way about the forum threads, I’m a bit too shy sometimes, but I shall check out The Rose and Crown thread by the by. 🙂

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic General Music thread

    @MonochromeDimension – No, you have absolute nothing to be sorry for. I still love the song! 🙂

    That’s a pretty cool remix! Anyone else get goosebumps when they hear the sound of the TARDIS? But yes, nothing beats the original theme!

    Nice one, @Fatmaninabox !  I do love the soundtrack for the series, just for these very epic tracks that paint…[Read more]

  • FaeGrl replied to the topic On The Sofa (4)

    @MonochromeDimension – Erm… I do have a question, because I’m just a bit confused here. The first post of this topic thread by @FatManInABox states that this thread is about off topic anything we wish to speak (or write) about without new members feeling daunted about adding into deep conversations about DW. And the topic Dalek says that this…[Read more]
