@nerys I have watched the 1st series of Annika and I really enjoyed it. I am waiting for the 2nd series from the library. It has great acting and writing and the beautiful scenery sometimes steals the show( for me at least). I think you will like it if you like Nicola Walker because she is very good in this.

winston replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion
@dentarthurdent and @janetteb I don’t know why I am so accepting of everything on Doctor Who, and I am, but I guess that is why I like it so much. There are other shows and movies I can’t watch because I am always taken out of the story when I notice things that are wrong. If I know about the subject and they get it wrong I notice and the mis…[Read more]

@janetteb One of the things I like most about Moffat (and I like a lot) is his everyone lives stories. Osgood is a great character and I am glad she lived, or did she?
I guess the Zygons are living with us now and I think 2 of them are my neighbours but if they keep those suckers and venom sacks to themselves I’m alright with it.
Keep on t…[Read more]

winston replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion
@dentarthurdent I think this is one of my favourite two part episodes. I can watch it again and again and obsess over the Osgood question, cheer on Kate , wish the Doctor was President and cry over the Doctors speech.The writing is supreme.
I never notice stuff like the parachuting from a jet until the episode is over or until someone points i…[Read more]

@janetteb and @dentarthurdent Thank you both! I am a fun grandma, it is so much fun to have your lovely granddaughter for a visit. To play games, bake,watch Harry Potter and then send them home to their parents to do their homework is the best.
When I started watching Who I knew absolutely nothing about the Master even if I had seen Daleks and a…[Read more]

@dentarthudent I have the movie and I didn’t mind it even if I didn’t love it. I know it caused a lot of anger among some Whovians but I had just joined the club and didn’t get how controversial it was for some fans. First of course was his claim that he is half human which outraged some fans while others liked the idea and thought that was why…[Read more]

@dentarthurdent The more I watch the Martha episodes the more I like her. She was a good companion but she did get a crush on the Doctor and that never ends well for the human.In the end she not only recovers from her heartbreak but goes on to marry Mickey and fight aliens. Both of them had been hurt by the Doctor but they had a happy ending a…[Read more]

@dentarthurdent I have not watched the series but I read the book and enjoyed it. Gaiman has a gift for creating tricky characters with unusual names. I will have to see about getting the series to watch. I am looking forward to Good Omens 2 also.
I am having an electronic voodoo event here with one thing after another screwing up. First I o…[Read more]

@dentarthurdent Oh the wonderful things I could grow with your climate but I am challenged by mine and I like a challenge. I like plants that do their own thing without my help and I love plants that just show up in my garden or along my hedgerow. Some seeds must be blown in on the wind and I suspect some are pooped out by birds like the big red…[Read more]

@oochillyo I like Andrew Garfield also and he was very good in the two part Doctor Who episode Daleks In Manhattan. He is a great actor.

I have at least a hundred different perennial flowers in my garden and some I know the real name , some the common name and some I name my self because its my garden and I can. Some are named after the people who…[Read more]

@nerys I am so happy that your area was spared these horrible fires but of course heart broken for my fellow Canadians who have lost everything.
It seems that Canada is burning from coast to coast. Here in Ontario there are hundreds of fires burning as well as in Quebec and the smoke was dense for a few days. No going outside for long because…[Read more]

@nerys The fires in your province are horrible and it saddens me to see so many people losing their homes. Being evacuated on short notice and then not knowing whether your house will be there when you get back must be so stressful and upsetting. I hope you are OK and safe and that the fires can be controlled before they cause more…[Read more]
