    Was Susan a companion?

    Very definitely! She was the original you might say 😉 (Whether she was also a Time Lady is up for discussion)

  • ScaryB replied to the topic Lux

    I loved it, but my brain is completely tied in knots with all the meta bits! 😛 (In a good way).

    The Doctor and Mr Ring A Ding have lots of visual (and other) parallels – bow ties anyone? Blue suit? Picking up a (simpering, Betty Boop-alike) female companion (in a yellow dress!) as he starts an adventure. And Mr R-a-D’s style very strongly…[Read more]

    Haha. (Hey! Whaddya mean Yetis are giant android hamsters??!! We are SO much more!)

    Meanwhile (just before we all head into the world of cartoons) love this piece about my new fave bot – now named as Scoot 😉 (Q&A with the designer. and a link to the official Behind The Scenes video at the end)

    @Blenkinsopthebrave

    Thanks for sharing the news about Jean Marsh. Very talented woman. I was a big fan of Upstairs Downstairs in the 70s (my next door neighbour was a cook in a similarly big house in the 1920s. She found it very authentic for the most part).

    I was gobsmacked when I realised Rose was the same actor as the wonderful Sara Kingdom.…[Read more]

    @dentarthurdent Haha. Not jealous at all of you lazing about in tropical lagoons. It’s a tough life 😛

    @winston

    The Doctor has a great wardrobe.

    Agreed.

    Actually the TARDIS always had a great wardrobe, all the way back to Hartnell. Maybe they just lost the keys, or it relocated itself for a bit 😉

    Belinda needs to go and investigate it urgently – she spent the whole of the first episode in her jammies!

  • ScaryB replied to the topic The Robot Revolution

    I love you guys!! (Waves at everyone).

    I nip off for a couple of days and I come back to a whole bunch of bonkers theories! (Puppies, doors, maybe – but it’s still great fun).

    @ps1l0v3y0u – Mrs Flood is actually the Vlinx…?!

    I’m liking the whole Mind Robber/Land of Fiction ideas. And there’s still the loose ends of mavity and 14’s letting in…[Read more]

    @Winston So sorry to hear about your storm, that sounds really scary, and glad you came through it OK.

    I also think we plant trees for the people yet to come.” – what a beautiful thought. Hang on to it.

    I met a couple of Canadians on my recent travels down under (sadly not close enough to catch up with @janetteB or @thane16 ) who mentioned…[Read more]

    @Nerys Hi back, lovely to “see” you.

    Not checked out Wolf Hall yet, but I’ve heard great things

     

  • ScaryB replied to the topic The Robot Revolution

    Well that was fun. 🙂

    Not perfect, but a good season opener.

    I liked the twist of it not being an AI problem but an AL(an) problem. I was getting creepy vibes off Alan in the opening but could have done with there being a bit more of it seeded thro the episode to fully earn the ending (without then having to make the connection quite so…[Read more]

    Waves at @Blenkinsopthebrave

    Good to be back, my old friend, as we prepare to jump into another new (and hopefully not the last) season of Dr Who 🙂 🙂 And yes indeed, times were very different back then. Not least if you missed an episode (or couldn’t get the aerial adjusted 😛 ) it was gone forever. None of this…”Hmm, will I watch it at…[Read more]

    Happy to go with the consensus. I actually decided to wait for once!! And congrats on the new job… go our mighty emperor!

    How did I miss this?!

    Lovely summing up of the 3rd Doctor’s iteration. Thanks @JimtheFish.

    @whohar Totally agree with @blenkinsopthebrave – that is one awsome theory! (VHS tapes) 😀

  • ScaryB replied to the topic The Legend of Ruby Sunday

    Too much RL this week and I’m going to have to timeshift with the finale – only hope I don’t bump into Sutekh on the run and disappear forever! Will have to keep off t’interwebs for a bit!

    Just wanted to do a quick message before then – y’all are AWESOME! So many great theories. If RTD has come up with anything even half as good, it’ll still be…[Read more]
