“These guys love Time, and are always going on about it. They've even called themselves Time Lords, apparently unaware that this is exactly the kind of behaviour that gets you beaten up at school.” It’s Doctor Who and the Invasion of Time! Read on: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Brigitte Bardot was still alive? Huh

Just finished my 100th book for the year - Richard Holloway’s ‘Stories We Tell Ourselves’. And what a thought to end on.

“There’s discussion about solving the murder, but I'm not sure how Doctor Who & co will achieve that. They're an inch high! Even if they stood on each other's shoulders, they'd struggle to convince anyone they were a real detective.” It’s Planet of Giants! Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Boxing Day is for books and tea.

Yesssss. Basically a song to which I know all the words.

A poem for my favourite day of the year. priglit.blogspot.com/2023/12/chri...

A short story for Christmas Eve. Features Jesus, time travel and freaky sheep. priglit.blogspot.com/2018/12/chri...

“Doctor Who and The Master spend quite some time saying things like, "The Master started it," and "It was Doctor Who's idea," and "Why aren't the Ogrons in trouble as well? They were using guns and everything." It’s Frontier in Space! Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Love it when Who gets angry and righteous about stuff. That was very entertaining.

I don’t know if it’s the Baileys, or the fact that the tree is up, but The Husbands of River Song just absolutely destroyed me. Beautiful.

"Doctor Who has been wandering round the space station, trying to work out why so many people are dead. His attention span is notoriously short, though, and he's constantly being distracted by new things." It's Doctor Who: Revenge of the Cybermen! Read on: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

“Suddenly - pow! Sea Monsters! It turns out that The Master has been sending them emails going "Come up to the surface - it's great and you could kill all the humans!"” Read all about Doctor Who and the Sea Devils - here: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

“The main bad guy is Tobias Vaughn, which is the sort of name you'd expect to find hosting a BBC show about vintage toys. He spends a lot of time in his massive office, laughing at people and telling them they are jerks.” Read all about Doctor Who: The Invasion: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

62 years, everyone. Here's my account of Doctor Who's first ever story. Featuring at least three moments that will make you smile and say, "Well that's a droll way of putting it." sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Happy birthday Doctor Who, you mad old bastard.

Need to buy a Christmas present for a slightly confused friend with many unresolved issues and who cries with joy at the thought of kittens? Why not consider my excellent book of poems? There’s one about a skellington, if that helps? amzn.eu/d/5WTFXOO

“Harry is carrying his shoes about. Maybe he’s polite, and always takes his shoes off when he enters the house. He still has his blazer on, though, suggesting he might leave any minute if conversation becomes tedious.” It’s Doctor Who : The Ark in Space! Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Look at this wonderful old guy. God I love him.

Cybermen! Shrieking women! A twisted picture in an attic. Find out about the horrors I've seen in this, the year I read 100 books. priglit.blogspot.com/2025/11/100-...

Oh yeah

“The Sand-Boat is run by some robots. They are the Robots of Death, though they don't call themselves that in public. They call themselves "The Robots of... um... Nothing..." Read my full, thrilling account of Doctor Who and the Robots of Death… here: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Let’s take a look at the whole “there are too many black people on TV” thing, shall we? After Pochin claimed Black people in TV adverts “made her mad”, all her supporters tried to use 👇🏼 as their excuse for why she was somehow justified in her overt racism. Spoiler - she isn’t! 🤨 🧵 1/22

The new Ainley Master figure is wonderful. What a piece of work. You can hear the chuckle.

And… to take us home…

Horror films are amazing, yeah? A genre of constant wit, innovation and variety. I’ve had an excellent month, and these are just a handful of the films that have brought me joy.

Another score for ‘years ending in a 6’ correlating with ‘years with only one Doctor Who story. 1986 - Trial of a Time Lord 1996 - The TV movie 2016 - Return of Doctor Mysterio 2026 - End of Disney Special (yes, I too feel like Trial is four stories, but officially it’s not & it suits my conceit)

“Doctor Who may come over as a bored alien who toys with people's lives to ward off galactic ennui. But he's also considers himself to be the best, and his propensity for showing off inclines him towards playfulness.” Read my - amazing - account of “The Romans”… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

“Doctor Who spends a while muttering creepily, then decides that the murderer was a Loch Ness Monster. Astonishingly, he will turn out to be right. But I reckon he says this whenever he's in Scotland, and just got lucky.” Read about the Terror of the Zygons, here: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Two things: 1. This is such a great TV show and I love every second of it. 2. This promo image rather undersells it, and suggests they might be trying to distract a dog with sausages so they can steal sweets.

“Doctor Who goes to see the Ice Warriors, on the moon. They are delighted to see him, because it means they can go "Look, we made a big killy seed pod thing!" Villains are always desperate to show off to Doctor Who.” Read more about The Seeds of Death - here: sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Watching Rob Zombiems his awful reboot of Halloween. But I like this bit, where it looks like Michael has noticed my little ghosts.

Nice little coincidence. Two of my favourite things started on Oct 25. Halloween released in 1978, Marillion’s first single in 1982.

“Doctor Who does not seem excited to see the Spiky Dinosaur. He's just going, "Oh," like you would if you saw that Hot Fuzz was on ITV3 again.” Read all about Invasion of the Dinosaurs”, here… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

@katefoxwriter75.bsky.social Did you wish really hard? :-)

Absolute bobbins. I had a wonderful time. #tron

“On Peladon lives Alpha Centauri - an exciting Space Penis. He hangs around with the Ice Warriors trying to be friends. They, understandably, make quite an effort to pretend he is not there.” Read all about Doctor Who and the Curse of Peladon sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

It’s foggy out. Just ask these ghost cows.

“The Daleks fly around everywhere, showing off. "Look at us, we've got a flying saucer." "We know," say the surviving Earthlings. "You invaded us with it. Stop going on about it. Honestly. The Cybermen were never like this." “ Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...

Happy Birthday Midge Ure. I wrote you this… priglit.blogspot.com/2024/08/matu...

God, the BBC is good isn’t it? This is just tonight’s viewing.

Just started reading James Herbert’s “The Fog”. Quite enjoyable, but also presumably the inspiration for Garth Marenghi.

Halloween film season begins. At some point I’m going to have to play the game “Which fucking Scream film am I on?”

“Some kind of Bad Energy Monster has broken into the TARDIS somehow. Which Doctor Who has always maintained is impossible, so this is embarrassing. “ Read on… sites.google.com/view/timeisr...
