So, while I’m still sober (its been a long week and I’m self-medicating with a few pints of rest)…

I was idly thinking “they’ll need to break those people out of that nethersphere… hm, now who have we recently met who was able to break into an impregnable vault and hack into the system…? and will they need to minituarise to get in…[Read more]

Well, with Little Red Riding Hood this song always springs to mind.

It was on a mixtape from a mate and I *think* it was the first time I knowingly heard Robert Wyatt (I’d heard Shipbuidling but didn’t know his name I don’t think) and unknowingly heard Ivor Cutler (possibly the best way to start that kind of adventure).

Apart from the title…[Read more]

Sorry – been busy but lurking-at-lunchtime (and breakfast!).

Noticed the recent poor level of trollisming and made me think that its not so different on different forums….

So, a Dr Who/ Arsenal ARSE template…

I’m a long time fan, I started watching Dr Who/ Arsenal during Tom Baker/ Liam Brady’s reign.

I’ve been a huge fan of Moffat/ Wenger…[Read more]

@Lisa – I actually had the same thought!

Basically, if The Master is on Gallifrey, he’ll know that the Doctor was given extra generations.
However, if he plots with the Daleks to escape the Time Lock (and if he managed to escape with Davros but tricked Davros into a Cyberman body… and my god, if they bring back Julian Bleach to play him, that…[Read more]

but here’s a song from someone to a friend who’s died

very interesting album btw.

although to be honest, I think that this track sums up where we are so far… ok maybe not, but I couldn’t resist the title! 🙂

“He’s a man, with a plan…”

ok, Orpheus is a Classical theme but… hopefully not to bring the tone down, here are two Orpheus choons from my stash.

(bit muddy in terms of audio quality but can’t find another version from the album)

and

which is a bit more… or less classical.…[Read more]

ooh (or “wwwooooooohhoooohooooohhooooooo” I need to listen to those Halloween tracks.

However, I’ll be obvious and put a couple up now:

and for a (ghoulish) laugh

If Danny IS a PE teacher, and Clara IS really old….

what else that the Doctor has asserted has seemed incongruous this series (outside of Robin – and I don’t think he’s had any problems with the “stoopid-science”)? [apologies my brain’s a blank]

and what bonkerising would we make of just these elements?

Ok – found some time this evening (night) and listened to all the great stuff people had posted (thanks from me let alone all the other lurkes out there hungry for great music!).

And, as I may have spotted a trend of post-ers posting to a thread and then next to the Spoilers thread, I’m even scared a little of reading an threads in case anyone…[Read more]

oh – btw,

In Flatline the Doctor says that he’s a bit embarrassed that this species has powers over dimensions and that’s very much the Time Lords’ ‘thing’.

In the Forest of the Night, we have a power over Time (fast-growing and ‘decaying’ trees).

Its almost as if the powers of the Time Lords are being called to attention.
Now, I don’t think…[Read more]

“I’m sorry; I’m so, so sorry”

Been away from this thread for far too long!

And now don’t have time to listen to all this great stuff!
And now that its a new week I won’t get chance till next weekend!
arghh!

ah well, just thought I had to post this one for Flatline.

A few reasons:
Graffiti – Bristol (not just Banksy)
3D – Robert Del…[Read more]

I’ll throw my only-seen-it-once opinion on Danny & Clara into the mix just… well just because!

There’s probably a whole blog in Danny and Clara’s relationship (it’d also be catnip to the haters! 😈 ) but I think of Danny as being an ex-soldier going out with someone who is also doing dangerous and exciting things for the benefit of…[Read more]

Hi all – have been lurking all week (just haven’t had any time to post anything!)

Great theories from everyone and I love @PhileasF ‘s theory. Clara’s lies have been a ‘thing’ all series – she’s been shown as being good at making things up. So a very believable theory!

Also Maebh (sp?) says that she heard Miss Oswald’s voice in her head, telling…[Read more]

Argh trying to type on a phone (though somehow appropriate with the conversation)!

Have we had the “they’re not being teleported, they’re being miniaturised” yet?

Little Miss Missy…

Good to see you back in fine (if drug fuelled) fettle @purofilion !

Just thought that anyone interested in TV would want to know that there was a conversation on the Mummy on the Orient Express thread about soap operas and TV writers.

It may have begun around here but there may have been discussions before this (apologies, I’m not an archivist!)

I for one learned (am learning, but this link is for in a few m…[Read more]

Soap a bad thing? A Bad thing??

I was too young, only saw occasional and disconnected episodes and didn’t understand the half of it, but even I knew that Soap was all kinds of good!!

Can’t believe it’s being criticised!

But thankfully, some people here like @Phaseshift @JimtheFish and @mudlark (and…[Read more]

Perkins a bad ‘un?

Maybe – certainly the direction seemed to suggest he was (either because he was or keep us guessing). When the Doctor says to Clara “just lie to her” over the phone, its Perkins’ reaction we see. He looks a little shocked.

My bonkers theory?

I think he’s a future regeneration of the Doctor.

I don’t have my notes to hand…[Read more]

oops – missed the edit.

I posted Walk on Gilded Splinters for (among other reasons) the line:

“Je suis Grande Zombie”.

which is close for a Mummy monster… (and without resorting to the Monster Mash I’m struggling with songs with actual mummies!)

🙂
