Another day, another review type thing of a Doctor Who ep. That's right - it's one a day till the season's over...or more if I'm feeling partic energetic, and then I can flail cheerfully about River Song, hurrah! Anyway, onwards: I've really enjoy all the cliffhangers this series. Nothing's properly beaten Beneath the Lake, but…
BBC Shop Loot!
This was going to be a very lovely Eastercon report, but I haven't quite finished writing it yet, and it's getting well into the eveningtime, when the words start to blur into one another. So, instead, here is a picture (which I've put some weird-ass filters on; in my defence I was looking at it…
Doctor Who – The Zygon Invasion
Doctor Who is over for a whole several weeks, alas, and then Christmas, and then it really properly is over for MONTHS, horror, but I stopped recapping in the middle of the season. Apologies to everyone who was reading - I was swamped with work, and it didn't help that Zygon Invasion also marked the…
Face the Ravenclaw
This week's Verity! is out. I have not heard it yet, but I ASSUME they are all very excellent and correct about how great Face the Raven was. If not, I shake my head in fannish sadness at em. Also, the first special ep of Down and Safe arrived safely on Monday. It's almost two…
Please do not aim your ships at us
Look, yes, obviously you shouldn't drink and drive, especially if what you're driving a a 7000 tonne fucking SHIP, and yet I still feel everyone should take a moment today to commemorate the end of the no doubt noble career of the Russian sailor who drank half a litre of rum before aiming his ship…
I live on podcasts and wine, apparently
Yes, I owe this blog, um...four posts about Doctor Who. And I will make them. It's just this has turned into a ridiculously busy time, and I've had to do a smidgen of prioritising, alas. What I have found time for, however, is a few extra podcasts. So if you just have to find out…
Fantasycon loot
Mmm, books. There were many books at Fantasycon, and many freebies, but I was v conscious of the six hour train journey and limited luggage space, so I tried to be strict with self and was less so than I intended but never mind. Books! (Also, cons that give out canvas tote bags with the…
Doctor Who – The Woman Who Lived
Just finished watching last week's ep, and now to TYPE, TYPE LIKE THE WIND. Will I finish my amazing thoughts before this week's episode hits the telly box? Let us see! (Incidently, I can now recommend new eps of Doctor Who as an excellent way to take one's mind off the pain generated by dropping…
Doctor Who – The Girl Who Died
I chatted about this episode on Verity! so, really, do I need to write 2000 words of flail here? Do I? Yes, yes I do. I've started writing a post about every episode this season and I shall bloody well finish doing so or be terribly cross at myself for a lack of commitment to…
Fantasycon, ahoy!
I'm off to Fantasycon tomorrow, which is an Exciting Journey that takes me to places of the country I have never been (Nottingham!), and also makes me change trains like fifty times (three, but still). The programme looks rather spiffy, and I shall be contributing a wee part as I'm on a Doctor Who panel…
