You might be misunderstanding my use of the word “geek”; it is not meant as a pejorative! It wasn’t referencing the fast narrative, which as I said, I often see as a symptom of thoughts getting ahead of speech. It was actually referring to exactly what you say: the time spent, the very detailed references, and probably a lot of facts…[Read more]

@Timeloop I had no idea the River Arc was disliked I loved it. Was that why they seemed to close her storyline off so soon? I might be wrong but I seem to remember it just fizzling out and their entire love affair was condensed across a few scenes by the end. Did he ever give her that old screwdriver and notebook? It was fun trying to figure out…[Read more]

@timeloop

The Doctor does it because River tells him he can, in the future,
and now Clara can do it too

@Timeloop

Thanks for posting this, there was some interesting stuff in there. That guy is beyond geek! He speaks at the same tempo as my teenage son, whose brain runs pretty far ahead of his mouth at times.  🙂

@purofilion

Of course, his statement about the origins of the scarf depends on his believe that Osgood is Kate’s daughter, the truth…[Read more]

@Timeloop

I’ll have to check that out as soon as possible 🙂 Probably won’t be that great without sound 😛

Thanks @Timeloop  that was good – especially as I am a nu-Who person, in fact I’ve only seen it since David Tennant (although I’m only 5 years younger than the show, I grew up without TV in an isolated place with hardly any cultural references, and generally have an extremely low TV threshold – I devoured books instead – but Who just speaks volumes to me).

@Timeloop Simple ideas are often the best – and it works.

@Timeloop I like it – someone he saved from the wreckage.

@Timeloop

Thanks for sharing! 🙂 It’s been far too long since the last episode… 🙁

On the Comments thread there were some Inter railing memories…. best over here methinks!

At one point on our trip in the very late 80’s I remember me and my mate going from Rome to Amsterdam via Hamburg.

We were in a nightclub in Hamburg in order to get to an early 4am train to Amsterdam. Well, what’s the point of paying even the pittance for…[Read more]

@Timeloop Do it!

And that unofficial theme song really does fit, quite amazing 🙂

@ScaryB

… I’m at a loss of words, when I got up this morning I had no knowledge of the song Warm Leatherette, much less that there was something called leatherette (look how clever I’m becoming! ) and now I know 2 versions, I’m amazed!

What will be next? 🙂

@Timeloop

There are a number of younger posters on here (well, let’s be honest, most people are as far as I’m concerned!), but honestly I don’t think it matters. There’s always going to be people older than you, and younger. You can’t help when or where you were born, you can only deal with the circumstances you meet.  Together we encompass a…[Read more]

@Whisht @Elouise  @Timeloop

Sorry, but if you want the real hot, slimy sticky experience of leatherette there’s only 1 person to go to! (sorry, it cuts off a bit short)

(Live version.. oh my, I think I need to go and lie down for a bit now 😉 )

@Timeloop (Have tidied up your posts)

I’m mean to reference Ferris Bueller’s Day Off? Sorry, but it’s not a TV show and Ferris Bueller is a worldwide institution! If you haven’t seen it you really need to go away and watch it right now. Like, right this minute young lady, before you go to bed (You may not want to go to work tomorrow though). It’s…[Read more]

@Timeloop

No problem. And Bueller was a reference to these two clips. It’s a joke about no one wanting to put their hand up. But you have! You may well be called on after February. You’d be great. 🙂

@Timeloop, @Elouise and in terms of an alarm ringtone, I use the default one on my phone. However, I went through extremes for a phone ringtone that would actually cut through my headphones. I thought this would work as its the most ‘annoying’ piece of music on my iTunes (other than the stuff i actually dislike) [the normal].But it kept ringing…[Read more]

@Timeloop

Though I should start to wonder why most of you are just so oooooold

Oy!

Compared to the Doctor we are all mere babes 😀

PS That’s what you get watching a show that’s just celebrated its 50th anniversary!  (I can’t think of another TV prog that encompasses such a wide demographic. You could see it at the cinema, and at the Excel…[Read more]

@Timeloop

Re a blog for current theories – that’s cos you’re still basking the glow of having got one right!! Have you SEEN the pile of discarded, discredited theories behind the Sofa?  (not to mention the pile in the alt-dimensional cupboard!).

being the grumpy type I am, I hit log in twice in sheer vexation and it worked

Haha…[Read more]

@Timeloop

Love Caro Emerald. Nice alarm thingy. (Sympathies on the geting up thingy. I always find it’s kind of related to how much sleep I’ve had before the alarm goes off, haha)
