I've spent the last 3 years animating episode 1 of the Daleks' Master Plan for its 60th anniversary today! Yes, we had a slight technical hitch when I realised I'd uploaded the wrong version of the file, but we're good now! And you might want to keep watching to the very end.. youtu.be/2--OWFrTXUI

Children in Need next week… youtu.be/0pmpvx0YqHY?...

"Fully functional...?"

Other people are carrying out their own #DoctorWho Season 13 Blu-ray comparisons. Thoughts? imgsli.com/NDI0NjAx

Fawlty Towers (24th October 1975). Whatever you do, don't mention the war.

"I was little more than a humble assistant, but I have learned a great deal." #DoctorWho

Just watched Ep1 of Pyramids, and noticed that not all of the new effects have been used (opening shots of Egypt, Tardis in flight, sarchophagus in the mirror), and wondered if this was a deliberate choice, or if something has gone wrong? #DoctorWho #Season13

"I was little more than a humble assistant, but I have learned a great deal." #DoctorWho

The Dalek General enters the Time War! Residing in its ivory shell, forged from the monstrous beasts of Skaro's own past and inflicted by the creator's desire for total conquest at the expense of all other imperatives. #DoctorWho #DrWho #Daleks #Dalek #BigFinish @bigfinish.bsky.social

“Strange fears and mysterious forebodings? It's all largely an illusion. There's nothing here to harm us.”

“The perfect organism. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality.”

A Christmas Carol is on, so guess that means Christmas has officially started...!

#OnThisDay 14 October 1983 Get your hands on these new videos from the BBC . . . IN A PACKED SHOW TONIGHT . . . It's a video from me . . . and it's a video from him.

Salamander* is flung from the TARDIS into the time vortex, to be scattered across the dimensions. *Yeah, I know!

The death of multi-camera TV: a thread. I know most of you will know the technical parts of this (and may have read it in the other place) but bear with me. 1/ 🧵

Now, I know you've all wondered what the Blake's 7 theme would sound like if it was arranged by Ronnie Hazlehurst and had a sax solo in the middle, haven't you? Well wonder no more!

#OnThisDay 10 October 1979 DR WHO MEETS HIS FANS Hundreds of TV's #DrWho fans packed Menzies bookshop when their hero, otherwise known as #TomBaker, took time off from fighting Daleks to sign copies of the new Dr Who comic . . .

The last thing he heard was the sound of his own skull splitting between the silver giant’s hands.

Oh, look, television peaking as an art-form.

William Hartnell in Ghost Squad - High Wire (30th September 1961).

'The weird world of Dr Tom ..' Tom Baker interviewed in the Daily Mirror (29th September 1979).

Low price?! They're having a laugh! #DoctorWho

Fuck me! 😠 I really hope this selfish git gets stuck with these and can't sell them!

57 years ago today, William Shatner and Nichelle Nichols filmed that famous kiss for #StarTrek's "Plato's Stepchildren." Watch Nichelle describe what it was like on set that day (with plenty of "suits" watching from the sidelines). https://bit.ly/3ExnbeM

A couple of old "friends" show up in tonight's LOVEJOY "Fair Exchange". Also very random that the episode revolves around the gong that was at the start of the Rank films including all the CARRY ON films! Fun stuff! #Lovejoy #IanMcShane #BBC #DoctorWho #TARDIS #Dalek #Rank #CarryOn

Just had to update Instagram - and now it's absolutely awful, and I want to throw my ipad out the window!!!

Next on BBC1 it’s all go at Gatwick as Dr. Who and chums face The Faceless Ones!

I'm really proud of myself, I've managed to hand sculpt & paint my own Trypanohyncha Ocellus aka The Eye from Alien Earth. As usual this photo was all done practically using real miniatures, lighting &this time my own homemade figure. #alienearth #theeye #toccellus #photography #scifi #miniatures

Another extended wanging-on about old Doctor Who books, this time Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons by Terrance Dicks, featuring flowing honey, chameleons and repair shops. 0tralala.blogspot.com/2025/09/doct...

My favourite cybermen, you ask? Well then....

Sunday night flashbacks, and knowing it was the end of the weekend, and you've got school tomorrow!

In his @theguardian.com interview, Ridley Scott says Raymond Cusick disliked his own design for the Daleks on #DoctorWho www.theguardian.com/film/2025/au... Cusick later received a one-off extra recognition payment of a few hundred pounds (and a gold Blue Peter badge) for his Dalek design.

This week our telesnap trawl through Troughton takes us all the way to the Moonbase, in a story known as “Doctor Who And The Cybermen”.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes - The Six Napoleons (20th August 1986). Lestrade pays Holmes a fulsome tribute.

What did they put it up for to begin with, if that's their reduced price! 😱

This interview with Mark Gatiss about writing is full of fond memories, good advice, and marvellous phrasing: thebeemagazine.com/mark-gatiss-...

Apparently the Tardis exists in the Strange New Worlds universe then! #DoctorWho #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds #StrangeNewWorlds

When you clean for hours and then get reminded you have kids..

“I’m gonna exterminé-vouz in a minute, buster!”

Funny how the ebay sellers that give the worst service are always the ones that scream the loudest when you open a case against them!

Today our Telesnap Tuesday travels take us to Antarctica, to the terrifying cybernetic threat of the Tenth Planet. Oh, and William Hartnell leaves too.

"Merch" - Oh sod off! What's so wrong with the word merchandise? (and why is there an American flag for English - is there a limit on how many Union Jacks they're allowed to have?!)

A couple of people have asked about the Doctor Who Top Trumps I did, which I edited using the brilliant art of Gordon Archer and using the template used for those 70s Horror Top Trumps... so here they are....
