@ScaryB Yes, a quiff just like that – a band full of Tennants!

@Mudlark I agree with @ScrayB, sounds very 5ish.

I think this will be a calendar where a lot of the companions are taller than the Doctor. But I can use Photoshop very well. It’s part of my job to do image manipulation.

@ScaryB   If, as @Craig has pointed out, cross dressing is de rigeur, then I am disqualified from representing River.  And I really cannot, by any stretch of the imagination, see myself as any of the Doctors – unless you want a hypothetical future Doctor who is vertically challenged (5′ 1″ and shrinking), with longish, straight hair which, if not…[Read more]

@ScaryB Thinking about it, more or less just going on natural hair, I thought you might make a good 2, or 10 (we could fashion you a massive quiff!)

@juniperfish could maybe do a good 3 or 5 or (somebody has to do it – 6!) or maybe even 11.

Just my random thoughts…

I will obviously have to wear a wig, so no reason anybody else can’t though.

@pedant @ScaryB I see we move further and further away from The Graun every day 😀

@ScaryB <waves fishily> I’m still not well, alas, but always cheered by comrades on the couch here 🙂

Which Doctor do you fancy dressing up as for the Doctor Who Forum calendar? xx

@ScaryB

“Thundering bellend” is my current favourite pair of words!

Here to help.

@ScaryB you are correct, I hadn’t quite thought that through. The issue wasn’t that people who chose cremation wouldn’t have their souls uploaded to the Nethersphere, but rather they couldn’t be downloaded into a Cyberman body. Hence Seb’s question to Danny about cremation. So Osgood and others who got zapped into cremains by Missy could be in the…[Read more]

@ScaryB  (also @Arbutus )

You could see DW/DiH as suggesting that the Master could  have reformed, that she seriously just wants to be the Doctor’s friend again and to be “understood”. (Do I believe a word of that? Not flaming likely!

Of course she doesn’t want to reform; the idea would not even occur to her! She’s a complete psychopath with a si…[Read more]

@lisa  @ScaryB   you were discussing the difference between the cybermen in the mausoleum and those manufactured in the graveyards.  My understanding was that the cybermen in the mausoleum were the ultra rich who had been conned into financing 3W and who had knowingly elected to have their remains preserved in the mausoleum and their min…[Read more]

Hi @DanMartinUK

I feel enormously guilty for not commentating more on your blog, but I put in a pre-emptive note regarding my reasons. I’d like to send you a big thanks once again though, because it was through your blog that I actually re-engaged with other fans in a way that I’d backed away from for quite a while, finding certain elements of…[Read more]

Hello @lisa

I’ve never heard of Regina Carter.  That’s a really blues-y piece and both uplifting and calming at the same time.  Thanks for sharing.

Hello @scaryb

Is ‘Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep’ your soundtrack for the Death in Heaven ep?

Hello @arbutus

Ahhh, Louis Armstrong!  Nice riff on the Santa teaser in the DiH credits.  You int…[Read more]

@ScaryB @Purofilion

(and it is a species of troll) –  )

I think “thundering bellend” pretty much covers it.

Hello @ScaryB and everyone else!

I did have a bit of a wobble this year, as what was conceived as an enthusiastic van forum about a show we loved (and we were possibly the first in this new format) became such a nest for trolls. And a lot of you regulars over there didn’t show up this year, prob for the same reasons. So I seriously considered…[Read more]

@ScaryB   I thought for a moment you had responded to my other post before you had read it, time travelling again perhaps! Yes, I love June Tabor, she has a lovely low, rich voice, and is so expressive without over singing or over emoting. A beautiful song should sell itself, shouldn’t it?

@ScaryB    I’d say that Missy definitely wants to be the Doctor’s friend again, and be understood by him as she understands herself. And we saw her try to convince the Doctor that he is just like her, so that this could happen. But that doesn’t mean that she has reformed in any way that we would recognize!
