@Bluesqueakpip, @lisa, I know it’s fashionable to be in the Shona camp, but as I am a sort of semi sciency bod (lackey type only), I reckon your on that money and Ashley is the real deal.
@purofilion, I can only read the funny or outrageous political bios. Tried reading Tony Blair’s, kept wanting to punch things

Happy New 2015 to everyone and may it be for all of us a year that is better than last year.
And a toast to all our absent friends.
2015 is the year of Green Wooden Sheep
Somehow, I’m sure that sounded better in Chinese.

Laughed at the Jagger/Warhol link @Arbutus, thanks for posting.
Thanks for the Mama Cass link @Whisht, excellent.

Thank you all, and apologies to you all (and anyone else who got a PM). I’ve deleted the offending user. It always seems to happen when I’m out! Just got home after a night out with my brother (first since we fell out over Scottish…[Read more]

Thank you @FatManinaBox 🙂
@Juniperfish – A 2015 Who Wishlist? Great idea
I second @Blenkinsopthebrave‘s suggestions –
1. An appearence by William Russell (that more than anything).
2. The return of River Song.
And hi fives to @Whisht for a January special – I think that’s probably being greedy, but we deserve it haha. An extra couple of…[Read more]

Yes, I also received a PM – web fishing of some kind. But this fish shall not be caught! 🙂 <looks for squashed chocolate treats behind the cushions>

Thanks for the quiz post @JimtheFish, which I did in a timeywimey catchup fashion. Very happy getting Tom, so travelling with @Whisht, @Arbutus and @Lisa (love your dalek/Mayan apocalypse theory!) 🙂 (Tho I tend to side with @Craig – I’d rather be the doctor than the companion (which thanks to Moffat is now that bit easier to incorporate in…[Read more]

Bad Arbutus! I have failed to keep up with things in this lovely little music lounge. I brought a glass in from the pub and spent some time this afternoon enjoying the offerings.
@TheKrynoidMan I don’t know that I have ever posted “Waterloo Sunset”, but it is one of my favourites. Thanks! I never actually saw Phantom of the Paradise, but I ag…[Read more]

@Whisht — well, inspired by @purofilion I have now started a marathon rewatch of Buffy from the beginning. Now in the early eps of S2. (Puro, your crush surely can’t be on anyone besides Cordelia??)

Arbutus replied to the topic The Curse of Fenric part 1
Here I am at last, finally having had a chance to watch this. I have a great fondness for McCoy’s episodes with Ace. I always liked her as a companion, and she was very AG-style in some ways. And she was fun to watch, where I frequently found Mel and Peri irritating. (Six certainly had his problems, and he wasn’t well blessed with companions, in…[Read more]

Mudlark replied to the topic The Curse of Fenric part 1
what’s going on with her hair?
Ace’s hairstyle is a pretty accurate reproduction of the kind of hairstyles worn by women in England during the war, as are the hairstyles of the other female characters. In Britain at that time almost everything, not just food, was either strictly rationed or in short supply, and that included mat…[Read more]

Nice to see you. Hang in there! We still love your blog, It’s great that it has your very personal touch, it’s one of the things that makes it stand out, and nestles into its own very special space in the Whoniverse!

@Whisht – hah hah hah. Spoken like a true ginger!
How could we have two gingers on screen interacting – if the actors are within ten yards of each other, the static electricity interferes with the studio equipment.
Well, you and I are here sequentially on the same thread, and the DWF servers haven’t blown …. yet …. 😀

@Whisht Thanks for the Cash link “Man Comes Around” That’s as devastating to listen to as Lou Reed’s “Hello It’s Me” which you posted earlier! 😥 (A great selection in fact)

I’m afraid I should mod you. Coming onto a forum with a fair share of 40-something male Doctor Who fans and innocently saying “does anyone like Blondie” should be considered incitement to riot! 😀
Yep – love her. I love this track in particular:

@burrunjor @JimtheFish @Phaseshift @Whisht
Interesting discussion.
I’ve been watching the show since 1963, and have gone thro various degrees of ARSE* along the way. I was upset when Susan left FFS! And then the Hartnell/Troughton change. How dare they change my fave programme! The Doctor should be old!! Then I watched Troughton’s first story – < …[Read more]
