@janetteb That kind of heat sounds terrible and it must be so hard on both people and animals alike. We have the same sort of idiots in Canada using bad science to back up bad ideas. What I find even worse are the people who know that climate change is happening but refuse to do anything because it will cost too much. Too many taxes , too many…[Read more]

@fyrespryte Welcome to the site.I hope you like it here.
Your post is very interesting and sciencey and I have nothing intelligent to add to it. Time travel science makes my head explode so I let the Doctor explain it with “wibbley-wobbley ,timey-wimey.

@archaicwhovian The episode with the wooden cyberman is The Time of the Doctor. It is a Christmas episode and there is a forum here about it.

@thane16 I also love old movies including the ones you mentioned but when I thought about it I realized that my favourites are the ones with fast snappy dialogue, an abundance of banter and a bit of slapstick. The Thin Man series and Bringing up Baby come to mind. That is probably why I enjoy the 10th and 11th Doctors so much.
The Birds like m…[Read more]

@thane16 Wow! That sounds like quite an enchanting holiday destination with exotic birds and other animals and beautiful blue pools of water. I am happy you and Thane had a good time and that you and your phone escaped too much harm. The only things I wouldn’t like are the leeches and spiders. I love going on long hikes exploring and I hav…[Read more]

This Christmas my son got me a set of all of Matt Smiths episodes as the 11th Doctor and I finally got time to do a major re-watch. I just watched The Eleventh Hour and it was so very good! I forgot how much I enjoyed the episode that introduced us to a new Doctor and 2 new companions. A little girl praying to Santa hears that wheezing sound…[Read more]

@pedant I used your Mothers answer today when Mr Winston asked me how long his chicken should roast for… “until its done” I answered and got a nasty grin in return.
@thane16 @idiotsavon and @mudlark Quite a few years back my oven quit on Christmas Eve ( as they do) and I had about 20 family members coming for dinner so there was much fra…[Read more]

@pedant Dr Hook was part of the soundtrack of my youth and I have never listened to Sylvias Mother without tearing up. Ray Sawyer thanks for the music.

Happy New Year to all of my fellow Whovians all over the world! I have 2 hours to try to stay awake so I can say I saw the new year come in. ( too old and wise to party) I truly hope you all have a good year ahead and warm hugs to those who suffered loss this year. Lets all grab a hold 0f 2019 and make it do what its told.

@kevinwho Sometimes I try really hard to watch an episode objectively so I can discuss it with all of you more intelligently and less emotionally but it never happens. I hear the music,read the credits, see the Doctor and I am lost in the story. I do dislike some of the adventures the Doctor has but I never dislike a new Doctor . I just…[Read more]

@thane16 It is an ever changing and evolving show that grows up as it grows old and it always challenges me in some way. Some episodes age better than others but I still love most of them and I find something new to like every time I watch an episode. It just gets better and better.

@thane16 It is still Christmas here for 27 minutes and the house is very quiet for now. Boxing Day brings another dinner and more family visits and then both granddaughters come and stay for a few days before New Years so we are still a little busy. I am kidding about the favourite son thing of course, or am I? I am.
When it is too cold we…[Read more]

Merry Christmas to all my friends in Whoville! I hope you all get the day you want, be it peaceful or boisterous and that you have friends or family to spend it with. My wish is for a better world where if we can’t be nice we must still be kind and where we are never cruel and never cowardly.

@kevinwho I have been re-watching all of the Christmas episodes in order as I get ready for the big day and this is one of my favorites. It is so sweet and hopeful it can’t fail to give you the “feels”. Happy crying. For me the story was about how far a Mother will go to protect her children. Madge is my hero, she disarms her keepers and go…[Read more]
