    @Nick1235 Welcome back, and agree with others, your English is fine. I’d be wary of repeating too much of what you come across in here in your English class tho – ” arse-brained fuckwittery” may not go down too well with your teacher, haha

    @nick1235  On that law — You *do* lose something in the end, no matter whether you choose to open the Blue Box or not.  Before me at every instant there lies a spread of choices, some intermingled, some starkly singular because they branch off so sharply from the main trunk of the tree of Made Choices that follows me.  What people tend not to no…[Read more]

    @Ichabod It will be interesting to see where Moffat takes Clara’s character this season. She has been plot device then the human cost. I don’t think there is much room left for new character directions now. I would opt for a wiser and sadder Clara after the events of last year but that may not be dramatic enough.

    yeah @nick1235 = trolls.

    Don’t you just hate them?

    I know I do.

  • @nick1235

    In the words of Cordelia Chase, do you want polite or do you want sincere?

    The polite version is that it is a selective (wilfully so) reading of the text to support a misogynistic word view that air-brushes out of nature the simple observation that the average male can easily (very easily) overpower the average female, so the “reverse…[Read more]

  • @Nick1235 – On your idea about resurrecting the master– this reminded me that during the
    4th and 8th Doctors there were stories around a renegade time lord known as Morbius. He tried

    Bit quiet in here, but good to see the pub’s still open.

    Like @JanetteB I’ve been lurking a lot but no time to comment. But not so stressful as you seem to be experiencing. So sorry to hear you’re having a tough time – I hope you get it resolved soon and exterminate whatever daleks are disrupting your bit of the universe. Just let us know if you…[Read more]

    Sorry I haven’t been about for a while. Well I have been about, reading everything not posting. Had lots of things happening here on top of getting back into the work/school routine and resulting sleep deprivation. Have had an “issue” to deal with that is taking its toll and unfortunately probably going to force us to take action which we really…[Read more]

    So much to catch up with! Thanks to everyone who generously shared their outside world writing. There are some immensely talented people on this forum! (I especially enjoyed @pedant’s Snow Goose piece. Excellent prose is hard to find these days.)

    @nick1235 — sad to hear things have been rocky. Take care of yourself (and your family).

    @purofilion — rather out of touch with Oz politics these days but that’s a heartening result. With regards to the wider global context, I think the cracks are beginning to show in what was briefly a depressing consensus among the Left and Right towards a…[Read more]

  • Oh @Nick1235, Nick Nick Nick.

    There I was all overflowing with sympathy for your difficult circumstances and then you go and mention the “C” word.

  • thommck replied to the topic Kill the Moon

    @nick1235 Is there an echo in here? 😉

    A lot of people have said how they thought the slo-mo shot was cheesey but in Time Heist the slo-mo shot seemed to be one of the highlights! I actually think the reverse of that. Go figure!?

    When the Doctor says “that was ages ago” I think what you deduced is exactly what you are meant to think. He’s doing…[Read more]

    @nick1235

    Anyway another theory time, I don’t know if someone mentions this yet but at the beginning of the episode when Clara and Doctor was discussing about Woods, he said ” that was ages ago ” and didn’t seem like he remember her, but we don’t know how long from the Caretaker’s episode date to Kill The Moon’s date and as we know, Doctor is a t…

    I finally managed to watch the episode last night. It felt very much like an episode of the Sarah Jane Adventures, whether that was because of the writer, location, ‘monster’ or the fact of watching sci-fi on a school night! This is a long post (which is becoming a habit of mine here), please let me know if you want me to be a little more…[Read more]

    @Bluesqeakpip

    There are possibly two further states

    1. The cat is at the vets

    2. The cat is somewhere else ((( ie anywhere bar at the vets (( or in the box)) (which depending upon it’s state may or may not being moved towards the vets)  )))

    Is that two states?

    @nick1235    The slow-mo of when they’re getting in to the bank is VERY VERY SEXY.     I completely agree, I loved this bit, it was pretty stylish!

    @BadWulf    The guy who got “souped” was a bystander, but clearly not innocent (except of trying to break into the bank!).

    @nick1235 – I’ve edited the content from your post and placed a link in place to a comment by @wolfweed on the Trailers blog. We can’t move posts between Forums and blogs because the systems are slightly different. It’s here and any discussion on the trailer/preview can be accomodated here because the discussion will be…[Read more]

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic Listen

    @nick1235 – it should have gone in the trailers section. Some people don’t like trailers or coming soons, so we have a separate area for them.

    @PhaseShift, @Craig, @JimTheFish, @FatManInABox – if any of you can tear yourselves away from the telly (or are you at results parties?), could you move it?
    Ta.

  • wcasey5 replied to the topic Listen

    @nick1235 maybe, but a time line can stretch from the past to the future. The problem is where it starts. Could have been way back. And the tardis doesn’t always take you where you want to go, but sometimes where you need to go. But I like the idea that Rupert, Danny, Orson are the same person. + a monster 🙂
