Doctor Who, SFF, history, and other things I think about far too much
After yesterday's post required a wee bit more work than I expected (I started out "oh, I know all about this, let's go!" and them ended up trying to check everything in a fit of paranoia) today's one is nice and straightforward. And a meme once again nicked off Twitter: my Top 5 Doctor Who…
As well as lovely new Doctor Who this weekend I also had some personally exciting and cool Doctor Who news: I've written a Short Trip for Big Finish, and it's also the first 12th Doctor Big Finish story. Which I didn't, thank goodness, actually know when I was writing it. That would have been rather…

So here’s the thing: I’ve been enjoying this season of Doctor Who very much, it’s fun and delightful and Bill is superb, HOWEVER, it has also been Wholly Unsurprising; other than the Doctor acquiring a professorship and more permanent Earth residence. Every story so far, I can more or less guess the plot beats if…
JUST OUT OF TIME (I finished writing just before this week's ep, but didn't manage to post it before I watched since PROOFREADING takes time; yes, I proofread these things, yes, I know I have many typos), this week’s rather late review type thing of Doctor Who. Spoiler: I loved it lots. I may repeat…
It’s late, I know. And ACTUALLY late, not just in the same week, but not as timely as I’d like late. NEVER MIND. Let’s cast our minds back a week and a bit to what was at the time MAYBE my new fav episode of the series. But now it has definitely settled down just…
So last week's Doctor Who was PRETTY DARNED GREAT. Here are SOME WORDS about how great it was (if you don't want words, I was also talking about this ep on last week's Teevee podcast with me Verity! cohort Erika Ensign, and Jason Snell): SO PRETTY. I do like a pretty episode and this ep…
Doctor Who is back on the tellybox! HURRAH! And so begins a new exciting series of NOT REVIEWS on this blog. Now you might be asking, possibly, heh, didn’t you do these so-called non-reviews last season of Doctor Who and NOT ACTUALLY FINISH? And, yes, that is correct. So, I shall be, er, finishing off…
The extremely untimely reviews continue! Today it's the ridic fab Face The Raven, which I watched UNSPOILERED originally, but am a bit scared now I know exactly what's coming. OH CLARA. For the first time in the history of New Who, nay, Doctor Who, I can say A WOMAN WRITER!! for the second time in…
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…
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…
