@FatManInABox, I’m quite a big fan of Twitter, (follow me @thommck).

It’s great for people who just want to browse and see what’s going on in the world as it happens but you get a lot more out of it once you start following like-minded people rather than all the “celebrities”.

I enjoy having a quick search for Doctor Who after an episode has…[Read more]

@Wolfweed‘s link to Rubbertoe – that’s AMAZING stuff! I want ALL of it!!!

(I succumbed to the lure of merchandise this week and ordered The Day of the Dr DVD from BBC site (mainly in the hope they ship it early, haha!!)) You could drown in the amount of merchandise they have available – there’s PAGES of it. Rubbertoe’s stuff’s my fave tho. Not…[Read more]

@thommck – yeah, that one nearly threw me as well. I finally figured it out because of the ‘gottle o geer’ joke in the episode.

Were they ever named on-screen?

@thommck – 52900

I agree that some of the multiple choice answers are a bit of a giveaway – in some cases there’s only one choice which is a genuine Who monster, so you don’t even have to look behind a single tile.

I have Friday afternoons off, btw. Just sayin’

Now I will have to watch Enigma again and look out for you and your family @thommck.

When I was young I wanted to operate a dalek. Had I known that they filmed Dr Who at Elstree I would definitely have made enquires about doing extra work. (Lived just down the road for a time.)

Sorry Topic Dalek. Back to Hide now.

Cheers

@thommck – Ice Warriors are supposed to look reptillian. The original design was based vaguely around crocodiles.

Sorry for the misreading: I’m having one of my bad reading days.

@PhaseShift – yes, it could be. You’re right – there’s something about the mouth and the nasal structure that are very reminiscent of each other. But like @thommck, I’m glad they went for the CGI version in the end; it was distinctly creepy.

@thommck – my reply got very Day of the Doctor specific, so I’ve replied to you in that thread.

@thommck – (replying to your post in the news thread)

I can’t see anything, but I’m sure there are people out there going through this pixel by pixel.

Given that we were seeing an awful lot of ‘mirroring’ in […]

@Thommck

Thanks. I understand now. What you say makes perfect sense, but you’re assuming its a one way trip. I would expect (if you had the technology) you could flip into and out of time. In that case, all of […]

@thommck – actually you’re “pipes” explanation is similar to my “moments across a membrane/ onion skin” analogy (which certainly wasn’t as catchy).

There are differences, but it looks like I’m gonna have to […]

@Thommck

I’m a bit thick I think, but I don’t follow why you can’t use time travel as a weapon. The timelords/Daleks can have most or even all of their battles outside 3D space (and the rest of us observe […]

@Thommck @Shazzbot

A few musings of my own on the definition question:

• We live in a Who universe with 4 known dimensions (3D space plus time). The time vortex is therefore (!?) just the time dimension […]

@Shazzbot @Thommck @Madscientist72

I don’t think Hurt Doctor messes up the Doctor numbering at all. Hurt isn’t a “Doctor” by name, therefore whilst D11 may now be the 12th regeneration physically, he remains […]

ah, ok, @thommck, @shazzbot, @nick….

In terms of Rose giving the number to Clara, I guess I’m simply thinking Doc10 (or metacrisisDoc) and Rose “simply” jump into Doc 11’s fractured time-scar (rather than […]

@thommck Because Rupert is the more cuddly version of the Doctor of course… 🙂

@thommck @Shazzbot @Whisht

The problem I have with the Rose idea is that she’s supposed to be stuck in a different universe, which means that she has to find out while travelling with D10 (how !) or can now do […]

@Craig  They showed up for me when I posted them. Thanks for fixing…

@Shazzbot @Bluesqueakpip @Thommck

I always thought there was a general consensus that the Older (looking) female TimeLord we saw in the End of Time was the Doctors mother and the younger covered one was […]
