@thommck – Congratulations on your prize!

@elwingt – welcome. Could I ask you or @lula something if you […]

@thommck – different circumstances, admittedly. River and her friends are in a virtual reality run by a young girl in exactly the same position they are. Namely, they’re all dead except insofar as they can ‘live’ […]

@thommck That’s true. An alternative would be that for the memories to be unlocked clara would have to say “run you clever boy and remember” and then the doctor would have to respond with another specific phrase […]

@thommck – not a stretch, but I think ‘Summer falls’ is a reference to the Doctor’s ‘Lord of Time’ title.

Lord of Summer, Lord of Winter. Robert Graves first suggested it as a folkloric archetype (though me, […]

@PhileasF – That was beautiful storytelling.

@thommck – The fruit bit stuck out to me, as well.  As did the Doctor using his sonic to ‘test’ it.  Since when did he start testing things, unless River was around […]

@thommck – great comments, quite a few probably chime with the common criticism that the 45 min runtime doesn’t allow the plot to breath, and great ideas/designs (e.g. the vigil) get wasted because there’s just […]

Welcome to @dislikesswimmingalone and @Thommck to our Who haven, kindly set up by our webmaster @Craig and presided over by our mods @Phaseshift and @JimtheFish

@Thommck I doubt the Doctor is a parallel to the […]
