@Timeloop I love your explanation for being naked in church. That makes perfect sense.

@D12345 The Specials are brilliant, and I’m so glad they reunited. Terry Hall is a genius. So is M Smith, and Brix for that matter.

Sorry. Somebody had to say it.

Oh, just posted and its completely disappeared.  Ok, here goes again.

@Timeloop I was expecting something to do with the red/blue shift references from various episodes.  (and, noting that ‘shift’ is an archaic word meaning ‘dress’ hence Clara’s red/blue dress?  )  I hope we may still see something on this in the Christamd episode, along with an…[Read more]

@Timeloop My own conviction was that we would see something to do with the red/blue shift (and one, archaic, meaning of shift being a loose dress thus clara’s red/blue dress symbolism?) Maybe this was all superfluous detail, maybe we will have some explanation in the Christmas episode.  I’m also thinking of the ideas re there being two doctors…[Read more]

@Timeloop

a) Good old @Phaseshift

You’re not going to let the age thing go anytime soon are you. 😉

Apologies for having to drop out. Our local telephone exchange is having improvement works to increase internet speed. In the fine tradition of UK workmanship, this means that everything has become much slower, or like yesterday, non-existent.

@Timeloop

If there’s one thing I did get right, it was that there was a “big red button” 😉

@Timeloop

Drat my slow internet connection! (Shakes fist at sky) 😀

@timeloop

most deffinately live and let live!

is there anyone on here who is a fan of Buffy also?

Would anyone be interested in reading a fanfiction cross over of dr who and Buffy where one of the characters of Buffy turns out to be a future version of the doctor and can’t remember because of the chameleon arch.

also which character should it be? And why? I have one in mind but would love love love it if I had some opinions especially @Time…[Read more]

Thanks for that video, it was brilliant. I have sent the link to the Family Members, since procrastination has been honed to a fine art in our household. I found the TARDIS and a Dalek as well!

Good luck with the work. My own student days are long gone, but I relive them through my son (he finds that regular infusions of dark chocolate…[Read more]

I thought this would be a better place to respond as we have definitely gone off topic! I hope that I have tagged everyone who has been part of this discussion.
@MartyB
Your “cuckoo in the nest” idea is interesting, I hadn’t looked at those episodes in that light. For me, my problems with “Let’s…[Read more]

ooh and @Arbutus (how could I forget you!?)

I’ve loved your conversation here (with @MartyB, @Purofilion and @Timeloop and anyone else I’ve forgotten!).

It is great how the show is deliberately set up to be able to cater for any type of genre and storyline (horror, comedy, drama, adventure etc). It’d be an impossibility to allow for that many…[Read more]

Hi @MartyB, @Purofilion and @Timeloop,

I’m really enjoying the conversation and something that Marty said:

You are absolutely correct to say that being concise is so much more difficult.

reminded me of this famous aphorism – “If I had more time, I would have written a shorter note”

Quite a number of attributions to who said it first, but I…[Read more]

@Timeloop – I do apologise.   I presume since these have been released, it’s acceptable to link here.
