HTPBDET replied to the topic On the Sofa (part 2)
I am happy for @Phaseshift to decide. I don’t know a Troughton story I can’t defend… 🙂
I owe @JimTheFish a rambling about In Defence of Krotons and hope to get to that […]

@PhaseShift, good suggestion. I agree re’ letting HTPBDET pick the Troughton story. I also like the idea of watching An Unearthly Child in the week leading up to the anniversary.
(I must confess to having a […]

@Phaseshift @Arkleseizure @HTPBDET
Yeah, been thinking about rewatch order too. It seems to be evolving organically in the right order! I’m more than happy to do b/w (you have to ask????!), but would prefer […]

Arkleseizure replied to the topic The Rose & Crown
@PhaseShift — thanks. The animation was made by the Viz team themselves and is rudimentary to say the least, but the voices aren’t too bad. It would never fit into canon for one obvious reason, but for anyone […]

Craig replied to the topic On the Sofa (part 2)
@ Everyone, I’m quite happy to go with Ghost Light then, especially as, as @PhaseShift points out, Androzani’s another Robert Holmes with a mad man in a mask. Don’t want people thinking they were all like that! […]

observations on the Paul McGann era are likely to be limited
@PhaseShift – and now, for one night only…
(I think that was RTD’s line).
I hope he does get some screen-time in the 50th.

For what it’s worth, I think it works like this – there’s been a bit of backtracking to different Drs and, yes, @HTPBDET‘s brilliant blogs on various Drs as alternative.
The homepage has […]

Nick replied to the topic The Faces of the Doctor
Understand. As a general observation, being pretty new here I’ve come across a couple of essentially dormant blogs and threads quite by accident. I can’t help thinking that there should be a better […]

Nick replied to the topic The Faces of the Doctor
As a general observation, wouldn’t it make more sense to split this into several sub-threads for each of the Doctors ? The way its currently structured there is no possibility for […]

janetteB replied to the topic The Eleventh Hour – S31 (5) 1
Like @PhaseShift I have watched this episode “more than is healthy”. It stands up well to repeated rewatchings and even on rewatch six or seven is still fresh and engaging. It is on my list of top twenty favourite […]

Hi @FatManInaBox <waves>
Patience everyone! As @Phaseshift says, it’s not like anyone gets to see the actual show before us 😉 Yes they could have put it on the web the next day, but who knows – maybe there’s […]

Nick commented on the post, Running the Show – RTD v SM
I’ve had a rather idle time at work recently, but I’m not sure I’ll have enough time to think of all the small differences between (BG/AG + BG/AG-RTD) and AG-SM that I find bothersome and write a […]

@Nick, @bluesqueakpip, @PhaseShift,@JimTheFish ,@Shazzbot and @everyone else!
 Not much time today – but just to throw a few bones into the pack…so to speak 🙂Agenda
I cannot think of a single BG […]

@Phaseshift Sorry, meant to comment on your idea re Weeping Angels being like psycopathic killers – that’s neat. Also that we may not know everything about them yet – scope for new story with them.
@Nick Was it […]

re Agenda
I’m not sure why this word causes such a problem . It makes me wish I’d chosen something better for sure. Taking your suggestion of the Sontarans as an example, so far as I can see […]

@Nick @Phaseshift @Bluesqueakpip @Shazzbot
Nick – I don’t really get your point that all iconic foes need an agenda – which you seem to imply means a BIG PLAN to either obliterate the Dr or take over the […]

Nick commented on the post, The Distinction in AG Doctor Who
I can’t comment for Shazzbot, but I don’t think the Angels have an agenda. Yes, as you describe, somebody along time ago created a “race” of deadly assassins who feed off time energy.  They do this […]

Bluesqueakpip commented on the post, Dr Who – A Celebration?
. If it’s indeed true that the series 7 split was down to Moffatt’s overspend (on series five? six?)Â
@JimTheFish and @PhaseShift It’s a great story for Private Eye, but personally, I’d blame the Olympics and the […]

ScaryB replied to the topic Forest of the Dead – S30 (4) 9
That’s a good idea. But maybe we should wait to see what the 50th and Xmas throw up – some themes might grow naturally out of those.

@PhaseShift – I’m not sure that particular reviewer has a ‘non-sneering’ mode – even when he likes stuff.
Though I imagine having one’s parents think ‘John’ is a good name to go with the surname ‘Lewis’ is one […]
