@Craig – I’m not sure if it’s the link you’ve posted or if the problem is at my end, but there are some issues. It’s either a green block, sound but no images, or you get sent somewhere else and a new window opens.

@ScaryB – I assume you are talking about ‘Last Xmas’. I was pleasantly surprised to see Danny. It was unexpected for me, but I thought it was a better resolution for him. I had thought that if anything, we would see Rupert and/or Orson on DW at some point this coming season. I still find it curious that there are/were three versions of him out t…[Read more]

Yay, congratulations to Samuel Anderson!

Hmm, Rupert and Orson, such a big set up, if they are not important, why even put them there.

@TheKrynoidMan – it’s very sad news. I’m a big fan of Star Trek, so to know we have lost one of the original cast members who was seminal to the creation of the franchise – and, obviously, the Vulcans – is such a loss.

@PhaseShift – thanks for the link. I will have a look.

I like this episode just for what it’s about – the first stirrings of the TARDIS’ sentience. There have been other sentient spaceships in science fiction more recently, whether they be bioships as in Moya from Farcape, or Gumptu in ST:TNG, or AI as in the ship in Andromeda. But I was wondering if this was the first time a sentient ship had been…[Read more]

I typed a post and then somehow managed to delete it … I hate it when that happens.

A belated Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to all.

Another good episode, real hide behind the sofa stuff. I was peeking at the screen through my fingers when Shona was dancing through the infirmary, so was relieved to see the Doctor and Clara. Only downside -…[Read more]

Russell T Davies and Sherlock Holmes?

I got 11, which makes me very happy. Thanks for the link @JimTheFish, I have passed it on to some of my Who friends.

@blenkinsopthebrave – personally, I would love to see both/either River and/or Jack back, preferably both.

@Arbutus – weird, I was thinking along similar lines about how the War Doctor links 9, 10 and 11, which then leads us to 12.

9 – post-war – the tough northerner in minimalist attire – gone are flamboyant scarves, jackets, vests, bits of celery, in place is a black leather jacket and a crew cut. He’s dispensed with the unnecessary. I also fou…[Read more]

<h2>@janetteB and @BadWulf – for me, the companions are just as much a part of the story as the Doctor. I agree that there is no correct template for a companion, and I think this can be applied to the Doctor also, as he has never quite been the same person, while still recognizably the Doctor.  @ janetteB – you probably haven’t heard of R…[Read more]

@purofilion – millions weren’t being spent when I lived there, lol.

@BadWulf – I watched The Daleks recently too. I noticed that Ian is the one who seems to take charge rather than the Doctor. The early seasons of Doctor Who often went on for 5 or episodes, in season 3 The Dalek’s Master Plan is 12 episodes long, but some of the episodes are…[Read more]

@purofilion – I’m originally from the Brisbane area, Redcliffe actually, though I no longer live in Oz.

@lisa – you can get it on Hulu, I think they have all that is available. But where you can get it for free I don’t know, sorry.

@Fonsini – characters played by British actors being portrayed as ‘the baddy’ on American T.V. or in movies would surely never happen. Ya think?

@IAmNotAFishIAmAFreeMan thanks for the link
