Love this! (Sorry – don’t know how to make it preview on here (for info, it’s a TikTok tribute to my new fave robot cleaner 😉 )

@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

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!

PS And what @Blenkinsopthebrave said!

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

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]

Sorry about the mega post. My brain’s exploded! Need to get some zzzzz. G’night everyone 😉

@Mudlark @Blenkinsopthebrave

WOW!

That is 5 star bonkerising! 🙂

To take it a step further…  3 things strike me.

1. When did the TARDIS become infected? Let’s assume it was in Wild Blue Yonder, when the Dr did the salt thing at the border of the known universe and “the other”.  Although it may have been before (need a rewatch of the s…[Read more]

@Mudlark

Thank you so much for clearing up my muddled time-addled little brain! I’d forgotten it was a Time Window they were looking at. (Funnily enough I’ve been mis-reading Sunak for Sutekh a few times! 😛  )

@Juniperfish – sorry, not worked out the music for that scene yet, need another look/listen

Oh WOW!!

Seconding @Blenkinsopthebrave‘s comment.

All hail our mighty emperor! 😀

Thank you @Craig

@thane16 @Mudlark – Wild Blue Yonder astronaut was definitely equine inspired.

I’m also concerned about Cherry – she doesn’t look at all safe with Mrs Flood, but is she just a minor character or is there something more to her that we’ve been distracted from?! (And indeed, what about Mrs F?)

(Douglas Adams had a lot to say about the power of a…[Read more]

Oops – sorry – just realised both the links in my last post lead to the same Tweet (but both clips are in the same place).

Thinking again about the night of Ruby arriving at the church (and thanks everyone for the incredible amount of detail you’ve been coming up with).  I’d forgotten how strongly Maestro reacted to Ruby, and their comment about…[Read more]

@Mudlark – that is just AWESOME work! 🙂

As @Blenkinsopthebrave says the TARDIS also groans in Abbey Road, and I think at least one other time this series (possibly in Space Babies).

Interesting pick up from Twitter –

Anyone else think that Ruby’s outfit in this episode is very TARDIS like…?

Well that was proper scary, that was. I really shouldn’t watch DW after midnight, but I can’t resist when I know it’s there!

(And congrats to @blenkinsopthebrave on the Sue-Tech spot 🙂  )

Was getting a bit of a Weeping Angels vibe with the shadow-thing in the Time Window, but it had already infiltrated into the TARDIS upstairs. Just saying…[Read more]

And as far as Dot And Bubble goes… is there really any other earworm to choose? 😀 😀 😀

(I did think about the Brian Hyland 60’s version (but that sounds a bit creepy to contemporary ears!))

Been slacking a bit on this thread…

My suggestion for 73 yards:

Nearly went with the Bette Midler hit version, but I just have a soft spot for this one by the late, great Nanci Griffith
