What you are describing is far worse. R.1 did Legal Studies in yr 12. Unfortunately what should have been an engaging intro to law was so boring it must have been designed to put kids off. Given that he was only doing the subject b…[Read more]

@thedentistofdavros — The people mentioned in “The Invasion of Time” are called Shobogans — apparently regarded as hoodlums by the Time Lords.  I agree that with what we’ve been given in the televised canon over the years, it w…[Read more]

I confess that Clara was a hit-and-miss companion for me.  I haven’t seen any of her episodes with Eleven, mind, but I’ve seen most of her work with Twelve.  On the one hand, she did have an interesting character arc as she became something of a distaff counterpart to the Doctor, something few companions in the old or new s…[Read more]

I always held the belief that all people born on Gallifrey were known as Gallifreyans and once you get through the academy you become a Time Lord/Time Lady as you said above.

There is a fourth doctor story called the Invasion of Time (I haven’t watched it in a while so my memory may be a bit rusty!) which is set on Gallifrey where…[Read more]

Also hi there @trillianwho – welcome!
Hope you like it here, and judging by your posts I think you’ll make it an even richer place!

I’m sure I’m missing saying “hi” to someone else – have been lurking with not much to add to the conversations, so have just sat…[Read more]

You have settled in to the sofa already.  I like the name too. (Of course as far as I am concerned there in only one version of Hitchhikers and that is the one with the Doctor and the Doctor’s Daughter’s Mum.

@puroandson Please pass on my regards to your Mum. Wish her a happy birthday and a speedy recovery.

@ichabod I hope you’ll make a full recovery soon as well, and I’m sure the itching will die down shortly.

Good and interesting post.

My favourites  (in order) were Rose, Donna and Clara. River wasn’t strictly speaking a companion. Martha, Amy and Rory were all right I suppose, but I didn’t care about them as I did about the other three, and there I feel is the trick.

A long time ago I remember reading that if you don’t care about the c…[Read more]

@puroandson: I do hope all goes well with your Mother. Wish her a happy birthday from me. My Birthday was yesterday 28th. You can use lemon jucie or oats for itching too.there is a white powdery stuff, which for the life of me I can’t r…[Read more]
