I’d be up for Caves of Androzani or Ghost Light myself. I can see one advantage for Androzani in that it’s in the Revisitations Box set that a few people have purchased. The drawback is that it’s another one that […]

I honestly think that splitting the topic in the way you suggest won’t make a blind bit of difference to relative uptake. I’ve repeated myself on a few pages that people new, or just joining the […]

But all the same, doesn’t this sort of huffing and puffing have a distinct element of Arse to it?

Yeah – it does a bit.

I can’t get over-excited about 2000 fans seeing a trailer in America […]

@blenkinsopthebrave – splendid to see you back with us, even if it is in brief stops in Club Lounge.

You’ve reminded me that next month is Paul McGann month, and I really need to organise my thoughts. I hope […]

Finally managed to catch up with this episode. I’ll just refer people to @bluesqueakpip s excellent blogpost again.

I’ll confess over series 5 and 6 I probably watched this more than was healthy, looking at […]

Saddened by the news that Mel Smith has died. I adored Not the Nine O’Clock News and Alas Smith and Jones when growing up. Article in the Guardian and a life in clips piece, which doesn’t feature this one (bit of […]

Magnus Greel – the notorious “Butcher of Brisbane”. Love the discussion over the chess board, although Greel does feel OTT compared to Chang. If you could see his eyes they’d be rolling all over the […]

Matthew Wright turned his back on Who before series 6. Twat.

To be fair, I can imagine Matthew being a bit confused by series 5. In fact, I can easily imagine Matthew being confused when tying his […]

Somewhat inevitably the BBC are holding the televised footage from the Prom back for a showing around the anniversary itself.

There is also a pretty […]

One thing about viewing these episodes like this is they they have made me watch some old episodes from the period the G blogs didn’t exist. After the SM retrospective, the 50th and the Christmas special it might […]

Amy isn’t always meant to be likeable on screen, her first reaction is often defensive, but her heart’s in the right place. she’s a “nippy sweetie” as we say in these parts

A great description. There are […]

@Nick @Bluesqueakpip

I saw nothing that said to me that the Amy/Rory stories played out over as much as 5 years of their lives

Are we ignoring young Amelia in Eleventh Hour, or the retrospective views of […]

@nick @shazzbot (mention to @JimTheFish)

should I conclude I’m watching the wrong show ?

I think that’s only a conclusion you can make yourself. I do think it is a mistake IF (and this I’m posing as a […]

@wolfweed @HTPBDET & @ScaryB

That middle segment sounded fascinating @wolfweed, but I had urgent business in the “Little Masters room”. Luckily my PVR records the radio channels and I’ll listen […]

@ScaryB and @Shazzbot

I also love River’s end monologue which echoes the “everyone lives” sentiment of Doctor Dances.

When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it will never end. But however hard you try, […]

I wasn’t that sure about Song for 50, but the second half was quite the nostalgia fest. I do hope they keep Davison’s intro in the televised version. It sounds as if he’s as keen on the “classic” label as we are. […]
