@whisht has already posted a musical tribute to Ron Moody on the General Music thread, and mentioned that one of his regrets was that he turned down the role of the Third Doctor.

A decade later than that decision, Ron Moody went on to appear in a TV Show called Into the Labyrinth which @wolfweed mentioned way back at the start of the first part…[Read more]

Just spent far too much time in the pub for the middle of the week, but such a joy to catch up with everyone’s recent contributions. Thank you all so much; I’ve missed being in here recently, some great conversations and memories shared.  So many places and ages and experiences and yet we come together happily in this little corner of the…[Read more]

@Purofilion. I hadn’t noticed the Who rerun on ABC. I don’t watch TV at night. That is usually when I am working or supposed to be.

Five months to go!!! I guess they are filming now. I am surprised by the lack of news leaking out or maybe that is because we don’t have @Wolfweed here these days to keep us up to date. I hope he returns…[Read more]

I was excited when I saw @Wolfweed‘s name in recent posts. I jumped in the return of our favourite tumbleweed but my excitement was somewhat dashed to hear that it not a full return. We miss you Wolfweed. Do keep in touch.

Cheers

Janette

@Wolfweed

You’re back!!!!!!!!

😀 😀 😀

*does the Yeti dance of joy and spills sparkly glitter all over the sofa*

Hope the trans-dimensional interface remains stable for longer this time 😉

Just been rewatching (thanks to BBC 3’s repeats (and thanks to @Bluesqueakpip for the heads up)). I was hoping they’d have gone back to the orignal edit which showed the Sheriff losing his head (and the Doctor having a more pivotal role in the Robin/Sheriff fight) but sadly it’s still the amended cut. Does anyone know which version is  on the DVD…[Read more]

Hi everyone.

Wow! Just popped in for a quick saturday lunchtime pint, and the pub’s buzzing! Great discussions everyone. Not got time to do a in depth response, and I’m not someone who’s ever been deeply immersed in fanfic, but my view would be that quality is everything. Is the writing itself any good, does the writer bring anything new to the…[Read more]

@bluesqueakpip @Juniperfish

I was called out today, but have just watched that documentary and highly recommend it. A lovely reflection of fan enthusiasm after reading unhinged internet comments, and just fantastic to see the creativity and diverse nature of fandom.

It was interesting to see the spread of the demographics as they moved around.…[Read more]

Thanks to @Blenkinsopthebrave, beautiful toast. (#36737)

To new friends, old ones, lost ones and those who are just temporarily AWOL

Special thanks to our mighty Emperor @Craig and the mods @JimtheFish, @FatmaninaBox and @Phaseshift (I’m with you on 2014, it started off OK but I’m not sorry to see the back of it! (Loved your snow pic from last…[Read more]

As the year draws to a close, I thought this might be appropriate time to raise a glass in The Cloven Hoof to absent friends.

First and foremost, there is @HTPBDET. Gone, but never forgotten.

Then there are those, like @wolfweed, who I hope will be with us again soon.

And then there are those, like @WhoHar and @chickenelly, who have been gone…[Read more]

@Fatmaninabox I heard a rumour about a phantom midnight tree pruner in Birmingham. Wondered if that was you!! (sounds like everything’s going great – well done).

@Juniperfish has just said everything (in post #36342) I wanted to say, and much more eloquently. So just to second that and raise a glass to you all. Thanks everyone for making this…[Read more]

SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER...

SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER...

Great work on that spreadsheet, @BadWulf. Will try and put in my scores when I get a moment.

And good to see that @wolfweed is still lurking out there. Hope to see a more permanent return soon….

@wolfweed

Echoes the above “missing you and hope all is well posts”

@Wolfweed. So glad to hear you are ok. You have been greatly missed here. Hope you can be back to join in the fun soon.

Chers

Janette

@wolfweed

Glad to see you, if only for a little while. I’m sure you are aware you are always welcome in this peculiar “Promised Land”. PM me if you have any problems.

All the best.

@Wolfweed Just to add to the chorus – you’re sorely missed. Looking forward to your return, hopefully sooner rather than later.

@wolfweed

well, you make sure you come back soon. the place isn’t the same without you.

@Wolfweed!

Missed you.
