Another densely-packed episode. There is certainly no […]

I reckon that I will have to watch this and the previous episode with the subtitles turned on. I know that my hearing is not so good these days, but I AM watching with the sound routed through a […]

I checked the Virgin TV scheduled of BBC1 at 19:00 on Sunday, 4th August, and the programme scheduled for that time was Celebrity Mastermind.

Surely this means that the new Doctor is John Humphrys.

🙂

At this rate of buying DVDs, I will soon have more than Sally Sparrow!

I expected Leela to have been more proficient at killing Greel, but maybe the armour was knife-proof, and, if she had succeeded, it would have been a very short episode.

I am not sure where the parody of “The […]

At least we know that Weng-Chiang isn’t Weng-Chiang (unless he was named after a Chinese god).

I finally got to watch this after a walk in the hot sun in the Yorkshire Dales National Park (in Cumbria) and missing the thunderstorms. A bottle of wine was also consumed tonight.

Weng-Chiang’s incoherent OTT […]

The film poster has reminded me of the old proverb:

Time flies.
You cannot.
They fly too fast.

As I have bought Revisitations 1, I would be interested in a joint rewatch of “The Caves Of Androzani” (which I don’t think that I have watched) and “The Movie”, which I switched off at […]

Sorry for a second post so soon, but I have just realised that the ending is about the only part of the episode where the possibility of someone’s immanent death doesn’t occur.

At last, a need for the giant rat! (let’s hope that that is the end of it)

I was wondering whose dead body would appear in the knife cabinet (and when).

The revolver and card trick provided entertaining […]

Not a lot happening in this episode, but the plot is thickening slowly. However, it seemed to get to the cliffhanger very fast. (I must be used to 45 min episodes now!)

The potential goryness of this episode […]

I liked the line that the “Blue Guards” would only call the “Sanit(ar)y Inspector”.
Also that the professor’s housekeeper was called Mrs Hudson; and the giant money spider, which I think worked better and more […]

As @miapatrick mentioned Border Morris on the “Talons of Weng-Chiang” thread, here is a link to a video of the Shropshire Bedlams (English-Welsh) Border Morris side.

(Please can somebody remove the first […]

Hello All

I have finally received the boxed set from BBC Shop that contains “The Talons of Weng-Chiang”. It also includes “The Caves Of Androzani” and “The Movie”, as well as various extras. The BBC Shop […]

Or can meta-history be unwritten?

Is The Doctor now established as the most time-travelled being in the Universe?

BTW
Clara could still be the daughter of The Doctor and River.

BTW
Note that the Scottish dialect pronunciation of “daughter” is “doctor”. 🙂

I do like the idea that the birth name of The Doctor is irrelevant. The meaningful name is the one that he gave himself, with all the promises and responsibility that goes with it. I think that this fits in well […]
