I think the only solution to establish the principle is The Slaughtered Lamb (I think The Leaky Cauldron is a bit too populist ands aiming for culty (I said CULTy) would be better as a first stop on the crawl.
Nothing is more evil than shipping.

I notice the Rose 7 Crown is hitting that 20 page level that seems to cause all sorts of oddness. Perhaps it is time to refurbish and open as The Wetherspoons Rose & Crown Experience.

@all
General point if we do a Buffy fest – there are entire episode *concepts* that @purofilion knows nothing about and it would be awful to spoil them – you know the one’s I mean (I knew somebody who had had no warning about a certain Season 6 episode and it totally blew his mind).
So tread carefully and considerately.

Apparently the official SMG fan site had a blanket ban on all shipping discussion (before Television Without Pity disappeared up its own fundament my user id was ShippingIsEvil, so obv this amuses me greatly).

Although the informed statistician would never attribute any single weather event to global warming, increased frequency and amplitude (at both the hot and low ends of the scale) are expected (think of heating a bowl of water and how its internal circulation accelerates, then try to predict the temperature in any single spot).

Why was the dinosaur so large,
It just was. It was a meta comment on the difference between theory (palaeontology) and reality (Vastra). Also, it had a Tardis in its gob.

How did she escape from Gallifrey?
I doubt we will ever know – it’s sort of a Master trope. But Missy is one big loose end, that will be pulled whenever a writer has a cool idea.
I think Zawe Ashton […]

Oh right – yes, that was fairly traditional ‘Dr Who really doesn’t get the military (or quasi-military) way of seeing things’ wasn’t it?

But despite that, the plot which contained them was a little too illogical, a little too unrestrained (though this is the Master we’re talking about so why should I be surprised?)
