I was on two - count em, TWO - whole podcasts last week and neither one was Verity! and only one was about Doctor Who, because I'm a multi-facted and layered individual of ENIGMATICNESS. One of these fab podcasts is the ever so brilliant Reality Bomb, where Mr Burk and Mr Kennard let me ramble…

Ten Years of New Who
Shockingly, terrifyingly, it's been a decade since the new series of Doctor Who began. I'm trying to remember if I ever imagined that New Who would last ten years, back when the new series was first announced. I suspect not. I think I was so caught up in the excitement of having all those new…
Gallifrey 2015
Home from Gallifrey 2015 for over a week now. A nice quiet week as I recover from a hectic weekend of friends, panels, drinking, talking, and flailing at amazing costumes, but no con crud! I blame the fact I've been forcing myself to eat broccoli this year. Here are some of the things that brought…
To the Gallifrey-mobile!
I'm off to Gallifrey One aka Gally this weekend, and I'm trying to pack and I hate packing, so what's actually happening is tons of productive procrastination and no packing. Mostly I hope it's warm in Los Angeles. I am totally imagining the eye-rolling of certain friends as I type this since they have like…

Verity Two Cents: 10 Doctor Who Companions That Should’ve Been
In last week's ep, and for Verity!'s first episode on companions, it was a discussion on Doctor Who Companions What Never Were, or Guest Characters We Really Liked And Are Bitter About Not Becoming Regulars (that may just be me.) And I'm pleased to report that I won't be attempting to fire anyone this week…

Companion Stuff
So we've done something terrible for Verity!. On last week's show, we announced our theme for 2015: the companions of Doctor Who. So far so good, then *certain* people thought it'd be ever such a good idea to have a poll to let our listeners help decide which companions we'll be focussing on. A poll.…
A Handy Gift Guide for The Doctor Who Fan Who Has Almost Everything
Oh, you know the type, probably. Maybe. It seems likely if you're reading this blog, anyway. That type of fan, if you're the sort of friend who's nobly stepped up to try and give them a gift connected with their favourite telly, requires finding a product of such utter tat-ness, such unutterable nonsense, that despite…

A Lovely Post of Lovely Things
Not, y'know, universally lovely things, though obviously a post of kittens and spaceships would be keen, but lovely things for me, lovely writing related things, which I fully intended to blog about in a more timely fashion but clearly that didn't happen so everything gets thrown in together, like a cake! A delicious, tasty cake…
Everything I Loved About Deep Breath
I wouldn't call this a review so much as a ramble. It got quite long: I loved rather a lot about Deep Breath, and what are blog posts for if not to natter on interminably without the cruel shackles of editorial oversight! Anticipation levels of self were Exceptionally High for this episode. Which was quite…
