Good analysis by you, I think. The “snapshot” analogy certainly works for me. I wrote a while ago that RTDs run can be characterised to a certain extent by the family, and SMs more on the family […]

@DanMartinUK has his next BG Episode up for comment – it’s his final Tom Baker selection in “City of Death”.

Many thanks @wolfweed, I look forward to reading it!

@FatManInABox

I’ve just edited your post and inserted the text “Pandorica suite” in between the and /a(surrounded by less than/more than symbols). A link needs target text to appear (it’s easier to highlight […]

Just on the BBC 50th celebrations, can I suggest something?

I’m aware of this conversation breaking out in quite a few of our own forums with different contributors wanting to have their say, and I think we […]

@JimTheFish

It escaped the spending review this time because of pressure (some organised by the T&A) since this was published, but it’s status is “under review”.

@shazzbot

it’s really difficut to have ‘a classy, vicious murderous enemy’ who is female nowadays, especially in what is still ostensibly a children’s programme on the BBC with a male protagonist; but, also in […]

@HTPBDET

Ah. Ignore that link. I thought it would be a similar arrangement to a couple of other publications they’ve requested contributions for – free finished product and a small fee for selected entries. […]

A couple of things, one which has been mentioned, and another which may interest @HTPBDET.

Both deal with fandom and the 50th.

As mentioned the Bradford Media Museum is hosting an event, but for anyone who […]

@wolfweed

Thanks for that. Ouch – pay 60 odd quid and what you get is a vanilla copy of Terror of the Zygons without special features. So add your copy of the real release to your basket as well. Takes the […]

@shazzbot

The reason I found the clip is more or less the reason @ScaryB pointed out. Masses of material on the BBC Worldwide Doctor Who channel, so I try to look at it once a week and see what’s new. I have no […]

@Chickenelly @Wolfweed and others

(Jumps up and down in excitement at the request for a nerd)

Philip Segal was Exec Producer and he was at Amblin trying to negotiate rights, but more on behalf of Universal, […]

@JimTheFish

I agree, the little analogies by Leela were a great way of explaining the concepts of the show without having the Doctor talk down to her. It showed that though she didn’t necessarily have much […]

@bluesqueakpip

It’s funny that in setting up both The Doctor and River and liers, you can read almost anything and nothing into their dialogue together, and their story can go anywhere. 😀 If Alex is up for it […]

This is an odd one, so I’ll pop it here and ask if anyone knows what it’s for. I’m guessing it’s some kind of viral marketing for something (maybe the appearance by Tom Baker at the 50th) in which case I’m doing […]

By the way, did anyone else start screaming when the Doctor starts saying: “Whole continents of Jeffrey Archer”? Taken in isolation, that has to be the most chilling concept ever introduced in Doctor Who […]
