@ScaryB @Shazzbot

I do think it’s a case of limited time to make the point, and the relative cost of production of the clips (and some are variable quality).

The Hartnell choice was inspired in mahy ways. […]

@shazzbot

I do want to register my disappointment, though, that the montages of various Claras didn’t show her saving him. In fact, they showed the opposite – Clara banging helplessly on glass walls and glass […]

I actually love the parallel between Rings of Akhaten and this, besides the leaf. In RoA the Doctors investigations into Clara means he’s suddenly been present at moments / events in her life. In this, she’s […]

On River, I think this may well be the last we’ll see of her. I think amongst all the references to old Doctors in the episode, the Doctors words to her to “sleep in his mind” were really well chosen.

If you […]

@Craig – make @bluesqueakpip an author!

Only joking. I do like that thought, but haven’t given it that much thought. I think your expansion on it, and a couple of others […]

@Bluesqueakpip

I think @Craig has the power to make you an author. Just posting as a reminder for him as he may have nipped of to bed. Look forward to reading it though.

The Eleventh Hour – The spring […]

OK – some calm has descended on Château Phassehift, so some observations.

1. Series 7 starts with a massive Dalek and ends in a massive Tardis – the icons the the brand “in your face”.

2. Yep – I went with […]

Many welcomes to new members as well. Nice to see you dive in.

@Galactus

I think we need to be pragmatic here. A firm handshake, and split the universe across the pennines as we launch our fiendish plans!

@Chickenelly

Aaaah that explains Noel Edmonds and Paul […]

@Galactus

That would explain my tendency to spend breakfast plotting how to take over the galaxy.

Ah …well met, my fellow traveller on the road to conquest. You will be delighted to know I have spread the […]

I’m afraid everyone is missing the clue in plain sight with John Hurt.

He has a beard.

Yes people – the Dark Doctor has always been the Master. Conjoined twins in the nexus spiral of time, endlessly […]

Can I just say Vastra, Strax, Jenny? Come on people! Add in River, the eleventh and Clara and that was the tastiest piece of TV, even without finely grated Richard E Grant and a twist of John Hurt as Garnish. […]

I’ve lost track of what a modern man should be in these strange times. Is it really embarrassing to suggest you’ve just left tears on the floor for a Saturday night drama?

What the hell. Call me a wuss. […]

I love “The Crimson @Chickenelly” as well (and @shazzbot‘s fez addition).

If I’d had some time with Photoshop this week I was going to add a bow tie to mine. Alas though I couldn’t decide – red or blue. […]

@WhoHar @ScaryB

Many thanks. I’ll bodge something up. Loving the new Avatar ScaryB.

As we head towards the final episode, I place my unofficial “marketing whore” badge on and think about what I’ll post on Dan’s blog after I give my thoughts on the episode. So if anyone has any ideas, I would be […]

@wolfweed

That’s brilliant. Cartoon Amy actually gets away with the Sixth Doctors coat! I can’t believe it.

Not directed at anyone this, but @Craig posting a tune by Mitch Benn in praise of the BBC had me laughing in the NiS thread. For anyone unfamiliar with Mitch, here are a couple of Who related tracks.

Be My […]
