    Ahhhh…. loooong afternoon. I could do with a drink. A virtual bar? How convenient!

    In Fact…

  • @Shazzbot – The Girl Who Waited is set after AGMGTW and Let’s Kill Hitler. Rory is aware of who Melody is and the fact his little girl has been stolen (and he’s grown up with her, until she’s become River). In the […]

    @StratCat01 – Thanks for the reply. I have to go out a bit later so when I saw your name I really couldn’t resist. A pleasure to have you join our other US correspondents!

  • @shazzbot

    On “The Girl Who Waited”, I think you have to judge that in the overall arc of Rory and Amy. Rory was always the guy who wanted to settle down. He went with them because Amy wanted to and he always […]

    Hmmm… I noticed on the Recently Active side bar @StratCat01 hasn’t commented as yet, and this is a bit cheeky but (Wave)

    No pressure if you prefer to lurk, but I once welcomed you on the Guardian blog, I […]

    @Budinacup

    There are a couple of blog posts we are using for that started by @HTPBDET.

    I’ve just added mine to this one which deals with the new series.

  • OK – I’ll give you mine. There is some crossover, so I’ll just put reasons on episodes you’ve not featured. I’ve left out everything after “The Snowmen” because those episodes need some time to sink in. I really […]

    @JimTheFish, @ScaryB, @Craig

    Yeeeahhhh…….. Sorry about that! As well as feeling tired I must have had a fever to suggest that. Far too much work as well for one thread. I’ve had another idea for a kind of […]

    Just munching a quick sandwich.

    @DanMartinUK has his next “Before Gap” series review up. It’s “Genesis of the Daleks”, and can be found at

    I must be tired. In the space it took me to type that with errors, you’d all posted new messages. Off to bed!

    @ScaryB

    I tend to agree with @JimTheFish that separate threads is a route Iwouldn’t want to go down. It has occured to me though that a single thread for questions (even if on old Who) that crop up in episode […]

  • PhaseShift replied to the topic On the sofa

    Yes – best wishes to @HTPBDET and thanks to mini-HTPBDET(S) for the post.

    It must be hugely frustrating for him not to have seen the episode yet, but we’ll be around for his thoughts. I’m saving his latest […]

  • Just to echoes @JimTheFish in his welcome to new members.

    @budinacup – to be honest, having looked at the BBC YouTube sites and the show’s home pages, I don’t think there are any official trailers to be seen […]

    General question

    Going back to the question about the 50th thread posed on the last page.

    I think from my point of view:

    There has been a lot of interesting discussion on the 50th in the Name of the […]

  • @lula – On the subject of Susan and the TARDIS, the Doctor never divulges where he and Susan are from to Ian and Barbara, and the reason he kidnaps them is he doesn’t trust them. You could easily say Susan told […]

  • The conversation about how time works is interesting from one point of view but a dead end in another. Most of the models hinged on (and referenced here) are reflections of our understanding of how time works and […]

  • @bluesqueakpip – Just goes to show I must rewatch Buffy. 🙂 In my mind, they always seem a little Victorian. I’m pretty sure that in a box set extra feature they said they themselves were influenced by the film […]

  • After last weeks Borg stuff, this week we have Hush ripoff allegations. I was going to post a (hopefully) humerous response, but I seem to be in Premod.

    Not sure why that is – I just posted a review on this […]

  • Hello all, some interesting thoughts to dwell on who “Doctor Hurt” is.

    I think I agree with the missing ninth incarnation. It really is that bit in JttCotT and the book on the TimeWar. It has his name in it. […]

    Welcome Dan! Thanks for keeping us entertained over the last three years. Looking forward to your next BG (“Before Gap”) Episode blog (we’re trying to eliminate the marketing term “Classic” from […]
