Whenever my boss wants me to do something I perform a series of dodge rolls until he loses track of me and eventually returns to his usual patrol route

John Carpenter’s “The Fog”, Doctor Who Number 4, the TARDIS, Shaun of the Dead,

This is very sad. Vila was one of my first heroes. As a kid, he was much more relatable than Blake or Avon. Bit of a coward, funny, generally after a good time, but with a bit of perception and wisdom that the others often lacked.

The Doctor Who Eaglemoss figures are ace. Look at these beauties.

"The main bad guy for this story is Emperor Nero. He's famous for being in history, as well as being in Doctor Who. He's discovered Barbara and instantly starts asking her if she wants to be his girlfriend. It's a no from Barbara." It's Doctor Who: The Romans. Read on...

Having the nicest evening a) reworking narrative while b) rewatching Star Trek: the Next Generation. I also have pretzels.

Ok. *Now* I want my country back.

Yesssss. This is excellent news. How quickly it's become part of our Saturdays.

Think I might get really into Star Trek. Spent yesterday watching loads of Next Gen, for the first time since the 90s. Had such a nice time.

Everyone seemed to love Oppenheimer. I’m very out of step. Here’s why I’m either right or wrong… priglit.blogspot.com/2024/02/nope...

“The guy takes off his spiky mask and look - he's Bennet! You remember? Bennet? The guy from earlier who just lay about on a bed all day? No? Well, fair play - he's hardly Doctor Who's most memorable antagonist, and there's definitely no action figure of him.” It’s Doctor Who: The Rescue. Read on…

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Hunt the hare and turn her down And Epstein didn’t kill himself…

Alright, fine, Sky Movies, I will watch Sinners again.

Bone Temple is the film I loved most last year, and up in my best of all time. It’s an incredible, powerful experience and it’s unbelievable to me that people aren’t flocking to it. Flock, people. Flock!

#YouKnowYoureADrWhoFanWhen The phrase “Been on Doctor Who” comes out as one sound upon spotting someone on TV. “binondoctroo”

“This week, The Master is pretending to be a Vicar. He thinks it's going to be a lot of fun, but he's wrong - it's tedious, and he's already regretting it. This mad woman is wittering on at him about demons.” It’s Doctor Who and the Daemons! Read on…

“A lot of this story is taken up with the Daleks zooming about in London. It does rather seem that the Robomen are doing all the work of rounding up prisoners and enforcing curfews etc. while the Daleks are, essentially, on holiday.” It’s Doctor Who: The Dalek Invasion of Earth! Read on…

God I love the Eaglemoss Doctor Who figures. Look at these guys!

I call this “incredible nerd joy” #doctorwho

An excellent day of television. I did go out in the sun for a bit, I promise.

"There is discussion about solving the murder but I'm not sure how they think they're going to achieve that. They're an inch high! Even if they all stood on each other's shoulders, they'd struggle to convince anyone they were a real grown up detective." It's Doctor Who: Planet of Giants. Read on...

45 Seconds with Fouracres, once again, astonishing. #snluk

Watched “World Enough and Time” again tonight. I know you already know, but… my God it’s good. Doctor Who is ace.

"It doesn't take long until everyone gets captured. The Daleks are waving their arms about in excitement and going, "Hello Doctor Who! It is us! The Amazing Daleks! Get a load of our arms - they've got suckers on them!" It's Doctor Who and the Daleks! Read on... sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

THIS.

Ian and Barbara follow Susan home. That's weird behaviour, right? This story is called 'An Unearthly Child', but it should be called, "The Slightly Unusual Child, and the Two Mad Stalker Teachers Who Don't Understand Boundaries." It's Doctor Who - an Unearthly Child! Read on...

Absolute bobbins. Some clever ideas, and obviously well made. Bit utterly incomprehensible in narrative terms. The stakes were impossible to engage with and it’s clear they hadn’t really worked out the logic. Bill and Ted did it better.

"The Stones of Blood get bored and start murdering people. This is very enjoyable for all concerned. If everyone had to fill in a form afterwards, they'd choose this as one of the highlights. Even the people who had all their blood sucked out." It's Doctor Who and the Stones of Blood! Read on...

“The Brigadier has decided to attack the Autons with guns. This is his response to all things. He doesn't realise this, though. He thinks this is a fresh take.” It’s Doctor Who and the Spearhead from Space! Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Project Hail Mary is as good as everyone says. But Cineworld had 35 minutes of trailers beforehand. How the hell do they expect to compete against streaming with this kind of dickhead behaviour?

I call this section “Amazing books about Doctor Who”.

"Loads of extra massive stones turned up at the same time as the murders. The stones are keen that no-one makes this connection, and stand very still, as if to say 'Murder? The very idea. I haven't even got opposable thumbs!"" It's Doctor Who: The Stones of Blood sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

"Doctor Who is trying to do proper detectiving. Then people might start saying, "Oh good, Doctor Who, he'll sort it out!" instead of, "Who is this idiot, and why is he laughing at the death of my friends?"" It's Doctor Who: the Talons of Weng Chiang! Read on... sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

“For Doctor Who, getting captured is an essential part of his daily routine, and so he's feeling pretty chipper. He's trying to work out what he'd most like to do next. Order breakfast and see what happens?” It’s Doctor Who and the Robots of Death! Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

"Doctor Who wanders into the story. He's clearly up to some no-good, devious jungle business, and has frozen upon seeing Leela. He assumed that the show was over once Sarah Jane left..." It's Doctor Who: The Face of Evil. Read on... sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

"Doctor Who is here because there's a Deadly Assassin about, and he wants to find out who it is. Then everyone will call him "Our Saviour, Doctor Who" and name a special day after him, or a flavour of ice cream." It's Doctor Who and the Deadly Assassin! Read on... sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

"Turns out that before it was just a Hand of Fear, it was a Complete Lady of Fear. She got blown up by her mates ages ago, and now she's quite keen on going back and doing some exciting vengeance on them." It's Doctor Who: The Hand of Fear! Read on... sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

SNL has quickly become appointment viewing in our house. Wine open, general buzz of joy… it’s lovely. #SNL

He’s going to say he *did* die and rose again, isn’t he?

Yes! Be impressed with my patience, everyone. I’ve waited for the paperback of John Higgs’s “Exterminate Regenerate”, holding off until now even though I’m ludicrously excited about it. And here it is. A reward for my good works.

"The Main Bad Guy has been trying to amaze Doctor Who with his terrifying plan to rule the world. Not one word of it has made the slightest impact and he is now looking for somewhere to have a good cry." Enhance your day with Doctor Who: The Masque of Mandragora. sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

If you’re still in a Daleks mood, you might enjoy this retelling of Doctor Who’s first meeting with the irritable monsters… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

What a beautiful and surreal thing to see.

If, for some reason, you're in the mood for Daleks this morning, why not read my account of the time they came to Earth to zoom about at major tourist attractions? It's Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth! sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

And this one that doesn't really fit the brief but I couldn't stop once I'd thought of it

“Look who the main villain is this week. It's only a bloke who's half pirate, half robot! That's amazing. Doctor Who is going to be sick with excitement when he sees him. He loves this kind of nonsense.” Read my amazing account of Doctor Who - The Pirate Planet. sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Amazing first sketch. Who knew the secret was… be confident and good. #SNLUK

SNL pretty funny so far. I know I’m meant to be ostentatiously negative about it, but here we are.

He’s such a fucking prick, isn’t he? Why does he have to be such a fucking prick?
