    The box set is a must to a true Whovian – if one can afford it. I save money every week for my ‘DVD’fund.

    Loads of extras and of course, The Husbands of River Song.

    Hope you get the set soon.

    Cheers,

    Missy

    I think that an episode can take people different ways. Where some of us may love the episode, another can hate it, another can be indifferent.

    Like you, I have watched Heaven Sent more times than the other episodes in series 9, I find it bewitching.
    However, Hello Bent must be amongst the most charming and gruelling…[Read more]

    @kharis  @bluesqueakpip  @missy  @thedentistofdavros          I like to check out all the Doctor Who spin-offs or specials of any kind. and I have enjoyed quite a few. The Sarah Jane Adventures was quite good even if it was made for a younger group. Torchwood was not really my thing but I have watched a lot of it and some of it was really gritty…[Read more]

    @thedentistofdavros @missy

    Thank you again guys!

    Clara wasn’t the first! Interesting. So the companions can die in Doctor Who.
    Soon or later i have to watch the classic series.

    I can’t wait for Hell Bent! Sound legendary.

  • @missy   Thank you for the good news!

    @thedentistofdavros     That is a great idea, I may go rewatch a few episodes myself.

  • @thedentistofdavros

    Well, I’m excited! And yes, it has always gone to air on New Years Day or Eve.

    Cheers,

    @thedentistofdavros Matt Smith has that Fred Astaire ability to “bring up the room” and brighten the moment.  Very rare quality, that is so enjoyable to watch.

    @arbutus Romana 2 is one of my favourite companions, I should have included her on my list.  I guess I felt the 4th had less tension with Sarah Jane Smith, but on the other hand, tension c…[Read more]

  • Kharis replied to the topic The Faces of the Doctor

    @arbutus Thanks! I think 12 may be favourite too, if I had to pick because like @winston I always like the current Doctor. @missy  Hope Capaldi stays on for at least 5 more seasons.  🙂

    Also, like @thedentistofdavros I can’t understand not watching because of a companion or Doctor.  That’s what seems fickle to me.  The show casts the best of t…[Read more]

  • Arbutus replied to the topic Companions past and present

    @TheDentistofDavros       I agree with your assessments, although I would put Four and Romana as my favourites. I also agree with those who voted in Four and Sarah Jane! I also thought Rose had a better chemistry with Nine than with Ten, reasonably so as her character was designed for Eccelston’s more subtle, rougher-around-the-edges Doctor. Agree…[Read more]

  • janetteB replied to the topic Companions past and present

    @thedentistofdavros  I agree with you re’ the best pairings of Doctor and companion. I also think that the pairing of Capdoc and River worked perfectly. (I have just rewatched “Husbands” and it is the rapport between them that really makes that episode so compelling to watch. The story itself with the giant fighting robot is a bit meh but that…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic Sleep No More

    @kbranagh     @missy and @thedentistofdavros   Mark Gatiss is a great writer and not a bad actor either. He has written some really good episodes of Who and I am a big fan of Sherlock. I think he would make a great show runner but is probably just to busy. I have high hopes for Chibnall.

  • winston replied to the topic Father’s Day

    @torchwood03    Howdy from Ontario Canada!   I take you mean the state and not D.C. although both are lovely this time of year. I think my daughter is right above you on Vancouver Island , also a great place. I really liked Fathers Day a lot as it gives us Roses family history and also the bad things that can happen if you mess with time. Ch…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic Companions past and present

    @thedentistofdavros      I am a romantic at heart so I was ok with Rose and ten. My Fave so far is ten and Donna as I thought they had great chemistry as mates. I don’t know the BG Doctors well but I do love Sarah Jane with any Doctor and that goes for River as well. I am such a fan of the show that I love them all!

  • Missy replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion

    @thedentistofdavros

    It would be quicker for me to name the episodes I wasn’t keen on.

    The girl who died/the girl who lived and sleep no more.

    I’ve seen both of them twice, and still aren’t keen.

    Missy

  • Thank you so much. This helped me so much<33 @thedentistofdavros @puroandson

  • Missy replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion

    @thedentistofdavros

    If you mean, The girl who died, I agree. Nor did I take to The girl who lived.

    @thedentistofdavros

    What? People don’t like Seven? Why? His seasons have a Doctor that’s funny but can also be clever (and isn’t an arrogant fashion-challenged person, a la 6) and they have Ace!

    I’ll keep your advice in mind regarding serials for Two. 🙂

    Do you like Matt Smith?

  • DalekTor replied to the topic On The Sofa (7)

    @thedentistofdavros

    Do targets count? Target mock-ups aren’t normally considered art, but then these are Daleks we’re talking about.

     

  • winston replied to the topic On The Sofa (7)

    @thedentistofdavros   So far I have been pleased with all the companions and I hope it will happen again. I might be in the minority but I would love to see the Doctor and River kicking around together, for a bit anyway. Maybe some adventures during that long night they have together? An alien companion would be good also, male or female.
