    @puroandson  Thank goodness you are back! I’m so glad.  And welcome “son of Puro” it’s great to hear a new perspective on the Doctor.

    @pedant The Outlaw Josey Wales is one of my favourite westerns. It is a great movie.

  • winston replied to the topic Face The Raven

    I just finished watching and I am still trying to digest it all. As usual great acting by all and a very emotional ending. Is Clara really dead? If she is then her ending was brave and selfless even if she hoped it wouldn’t happen. She heard Rigsy talking to his wife and baby and that is when she decided to take his curse. I think she would have…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic Sleep No More

    Well I just finished watching and I think I liked it. I know it was good cause it creeped me out a bit. It definately needs a rewatch to catch it all. All of  those dimly lit corridors and sliding doors that close, when you don’t want them to, always add to the shiver factor for me. I also thought the Sandmen were pretty scary with those huge g…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion

    I just watched and all I can say is “WOW”  I  just can’t get over how wonderfully written , acted, and directed this show can be. The tears were flowing during the Doctors speech as I felt his pain and frustration , his hope that we can be better, his faith in humans and Zygons alike. What an actor.

    Jenna  as Bonnie/Clara  acted both parts per…[Read more]

    @purofilion  I am also waiting for part 2 on in 15 minutes so I am sticking to the sofa until later. I am an optimist so I say it will be good!

    I was sorry to see such rudeness on this forum but I guess it goes with the territory.  I have to say most of the members are smart and polite and the exact opposite of shallow. Good conversation and fa…[Read more]

    @phaseshift   Thanks for posting the mural, it looked great. I was wondering if Tescos would ship a case of that brain bleach to Canada?  It sure would come in handy sometimes.

    @mudlark  I  am glad I am not the only one who feels that way in supermarkets. Is it the layout of the store or the shoppers or the employees? Maybe the lighting or the…[Read more]

    @purofilion and @ichabod I totally agree about Capaldi in the role of the Doctor. His Doctor has a depth and mystery that draws you in and a manner that drives you away. He is his own Doctor , yet you know the others are in there and every now and then he lets one of them out. He is “fantastic!”

  • winston replied to the topic The Zygon Invasion

    I just finished watching and I thought it was a great episode. Lots of politics , soldiers and Zygons! And did the Doctor call himself Doctor Funkinstein?  This was a fun romp that had the feel of an episode of “24”.  I Can’t wait for a rewatch later.

    Liked the “It’s not being paranoid , if it’s real” line from the soldier. The idea of a m…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived

    I watched again last night and near the end at the pub a few lines between the Doctor and Me  stood out. Just wondering if anyone else noticed them. To paraphrase..

    Doctor: “Ashildr I think I am very glad I saved your life.”

    Ashildr: ” Oh I think everyone will be.”

    The Doctor looks at her in a perplexed, curious way. For some reason this lit…[Read more]

    @cumquat   You are trolling with some very funny bait.

    @jimthefish

    That is the first time I watched that and it was pretty funny. Thanks for posting , it gave me a good giggle.  I love the idea of River crushing the sunglasses under the heel of her  expensive pumps.

    @fatmaninabox

    That looks great. Donna and 10  together again, how can I resist?

  • winston replied to the topic Companions past and present

    @plainolddave

    Maybe that change in the companion/Doctor relationship is what drew people to the new Who ? But I agree it would be nice to have a different kind of companion maybe even a man or an alien? Why couldn’t two buddies hang around thru space and time, TennantDoc and Donna did and it was a great series. But I give up guessing and only…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic The Faces of the Doctor

    Each Doctor in turn has entertained and enlightened me in their own unique way. When I know an actor is leaving the show ,me , like many others try to cast the perfect doctor. We have fave actors we want to take the role, male or female, and we play a fun guessing game. I have never been right and I am always sure that I like the previous Doctor…[Read more]

    @pendant   A guardian for the discarded.

    I was also intrigued by that line and then we see Me standing in the picture  on Clara’s phone. Does this mean she may watch or contact other companions. Does she protect them from the effects of having travelled with the Doctor? Is she the companions Claricle in a way? And will we see Donna or Rose or Ma…[Read more]

  • winston replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived

    @starla I also enjoyed the Captain Jack reference and the line about him finding her sooner or later.Oh that Jack!
    @jimthefish I’m sorry you didn’t care for this episode the first time around.Maybe it will grow on you.Maybe because I really enjoyed Tennant Doc I also enjoyed this episode.

    @purofilion

    OOOPS!   Darn I thought I put in a new fact but that is hard on this forum. I have to pay more attention to the posts.

    I am beginning to think that Clara’s end is going to be spectacular and timey-wimey but aren’t they all. But I have no bonkers theories just vague feelings like I should know but just can’t grasp it. I love that feeling.

  • winston replied to the topic The Girl Who Died

    @purofilion

    Never mind my internet is still working. So you didn’t break it all, maybe just Australia.

    By the way Martha and Mickey the idiot also got married so they seemed pretty happy.

  • winston replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived

    I have just finished a few minutes ago and so far I give it a thumbs up. I really liked all the indepth dialog between Me and the Doctor about the true consequences of immortality. To go back to the idea of Clara as a pet ,I have had many dogs in my life that I have loved dearly and losing each was very painful. One of my heartbreaks and the t…[Read more]

    K9 sure looks all amped up. I wonder if the 12th Doctor  is the one who upgraded him. I am excited to see the movie with my grandkids.
