winston replied to the topic Knock Knock
I liked this spooky episode and the cast were all great. Suchet was very good at being creepy, wierd and then pitiful. Bill is getting more likable every time I see her and I think she is one of my favourite companions. I liked the everybody lives moment until I remembered the other lost people…..I guess it was too late for them or I missed…[Read more]

winston commented on the post, Faces of the Doctor: Peter Capaldi – the quixotic, unknowable anti-authority figure?
@jimthefish Thank you for your interesting words on CapDoc and all the hard work that went into it.The conversations it started have been informative, thoughtful and thought provoking and since it is late here […]

@janetteb @missy and @ichabod I liked the tank and the guitar and the “idea” of the sonic glasses but I love PC’s expressive eyes which tell so much of the story that I don’t like them covered up. Anyone else think the Doctor is just a little more soft and fuzzy this series? I want to give him a cuddle.

@redlemons Hi! Maybe the Doctor gave the Master the brooch for the daughter that was born but the Master ,being the Master, kept it for himself. @thane15 Moffat might be telling us through the Doctor to be prepared to “move on” when PC leaves us. Some fans have a hard time adjusting to a new Doctor and some never seem to move on and spend a…[Read more]

Hello everyone! My computer has been ill ( all better now) but I have been watching the show and I can now say how much I am enjoying this series. This episode was like watching a BBC historical mystery which just happens to have monsters and time travelling detectives. I liked the look and feel of the fair and I could almost smell it. The Doc…[Read more]

Well I loved every minute of that and I have a silly grin on my face which will probably last for days. Bill was fun ,witty ,silly and curious ,all my favourite qualities in a companion. Nardole is a sarcastic little truth teller who is far braver than he acts. The Doctor is at his most “Doctorish” and Capaldi is so good I am speechless. I really…[Read more]

@arbutus I have been cleaning and researching my treasure all winter. I found some 1920s art-deco style jars that I am finding lids for and storing dry goods in because the shapes are so cool , the ink wells go into the collection and the rest…..? I have collected Canadiana since I was about 10 and found an old stoneware crock that was…[Read more]

@mudlark I agree with you about recent history being interesting. Last winter we found an old dump site behind a 150 year old family farmstead in southern Ontario and dug to the bottom in layers over 5 months and found so many great things. These finds included bottles of medicines, some snake oil and some still around today and soda bottles fr…[Read more]

@thane15 I am happy that you and Mom are OK. I have been watching some of the videos of the damage to peoples homes from the wind and all the flooding. My thoughts are with you guys.
When my kids were young they would get up for school and if there was a blizzard or freezing rain they would huddle by the radio (no internet way,way back then )…[Read more]

All my thoughts and sympathy go to the victims of this horrible attack and all the people of the UK. Stand strong like you always do.

@missy Although I won’t pretend to understand all of it I really liked it. I just get to watch it a few more times and that is ok with me. I hope for more and I really enjoyed all of it right from the first episode to the last one. The whole series has been exceptional interpretation of the Sherlock Holmes stories in my humble opinion.

@blenkinsopthebrave and @pedant I was sad to hear of another legend gone. Chuck Berry was an original who inspired so many artists through the years. Whenever I hear Johnny be Good it takes me back to school dances and other good memories which is what great music should do. It always got the kids on to the dance floor. He also had some cool…[Read more]

@missrori I have watched that show but sadly missed that episode. Too funny!
I am slightly worried about any “operation Dalek” that may be out there.

winston replied to the topic Heaven Sent
@missrori @thane15 and @ichabod This is a time of stress for so many people in the world. (the understatement of the year) A time when it seems like the bad guys are winning, like they can do no wrong. In a fair life the bad guys would be punished and the good guys would be rewarded but that doesn’t seem to be happening. But that doesn’t mean w…[Read more]

@missrori Recently I started reading a series of books by Jonathon Stroud called Lockwood and Co.. These are called young adult books but I like them and believe me I am a long way away from being a young adult. As I told the Librarian “I refuse to limit myself to certain sections” and I am glad I don’t because I found these books. This is a fa…[Read more]
