There’s irony. As you came back to North Yorkshire from West Cumbria, you may have passed my in-laws travelling back from York to Whitehaven. Hope you waved.

Good work on the Sofa lost property tally. In the coinage collection we got the equivalent of £2.27 in Great British Earth Currency, and a signed postcard of Colin Baker addressed to “my number […]

“I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself. I take the words, I scatter them in time and space. A message to lead myself here.”

@DanMartinUK – welcome! Hope the new position as Entertainment Editor of Buzzfeed is treating you well (after all the times I’ve whored this site on your columns on the Guardian, some payback must be due). […]

@DanMartinUK has a great sense of timing. On my first day back he reviews “Trial of a Time Lord” in his continuing series.

On the subject of the BFI showings, after a long delay they uploaded an extract for the Seventh Doctor with McCoy, Sophie Aldred & Ben Aaranovitch talking about that period.

And for the Ninth Doctor, Producer […]

@Craig @bluesqueakpip

Ahhh. Thanks for finding that. Shame it’s Paul McGann lite, but I get the feeling he’s bored by saying all the same things about the Movie. Very surprised they didn’t touch on the Audio as […]

@ScaryB @Bluesqueakpip

I didn’t know Day of the Daleks was one of SMs favourites, but I can understand why. For a show based on time travel, there are relatively few stories that delve into that territory in […]

@blenkinsopthebrave @bluesqueakpip

You know, the first thing that popped into my head when hearing the title was Day of the Daleks, but I was thinking more about the speculation that the “end point” of […]

@Juniperfish

Nice to see you back with us! As a fan-fiction fan I hope you caught @JimtheFish s and @Wolfweed s contributions on the blogs.

I just got back from a stay in York which was a little depressing […]

@bluesqueakpip @ScaryB

You did have to love the identical cousin thing. Even in actual rare recorded cases of two identical twins marrying two identical twins, the kids were very different. 😀

And an […]

@bluesqueakpip @Tardisblue @JimTheFish

I think it was @arkleseizure in the first part of this blog that raised the point of just how often entire plot lines used to revolve around a member of the TARDIS crew […]

As I think we were talking about Terror of the Autons next, if anyone wants to buy it beforehand, it’s in the Mannequin Mania boxset, together with the first Jon Pertwee story Spearhead from Space (the first time […]

@JimTheFish

But I’m telling you, it wasn’t a regeneration. Davison’s Doc was whisked into the Matrix and Maxil was teleported in to impersonate the Doctor, with a view to extreme character assassination, […]

@bluesqueakpip

I was looking for the AG ‘golden glow’ of regeneration, and had to remind myself that this is a BG story.

It’s funny, but I read that comment as I was watching Big Bang, and I referenced it […]

@miapatrick

(Interestingly, though, David McCallum, in something like his character from Sapphire and Steel (any chance of putting a story from S&S on the site?)

Perhaps a superficial similarity from this […]

@diasho

@bluesqueakpip is quite right. Talking to yourself (even on the internet) should be considered the first sign of madness.

I could take you through why this isn’t a problem in the context of the long […]

@wolfweed

Love that version of The Scream by the way.

I agree that, initially the jump to three months later was jarring on first viewing. Impossible Astronaut had such a good cliffhanger ending you expected it to go from there, and instead you get the setup for more […]

@craig

And oh, how the fans of the show called Doctor Who did weep.

Indeed. By the end of Twin Dilemma, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth, thereof.

Just another note – the BFI showed Caves as […]
