Bit drunk. (To the extent that I originally typed that as 'Bit drinku'. Erm.)  Have Frontios on DVD.

THIS IS THE BEST FRIDAY NIGHT EVAR!!!1

ETA: The commentary is Davo, Eric Saward and Jeff Rawle? What? You utter bastards!

ETA: Obvs have turned off the commentary.

OK, here's the deal, People Who Make Who figures: if you are going to make a Planet of Fire-specific Fifth Doctor figure (an act of which I wholly approve), try harder.

FFS, he only wears the hat for five minutes.  He doesn't wear the coat or the jumper, at all, at any point - unique to this story.  AND HE ACTUALLY SAYS IN THE SCRIPT THAT HE MISSES ( Read more... )

Oh, Planet of Fire DVD.  I have waited for you so long, and now here you are, with commentaries, and featurettes with stupid names, and one of those inexplicable PDFs of the Radio Times listings.  Can you live up to my alarmingly high expectations?

My Turlough squee is back.  I was going to do that 30 Days of Who meme, before I realised it would just be me going 'Five! Turlough!

Black Guardian Trilogy.  More gingery minxing than has ever before been seen on dvd.  I have waited for 2Entertain to give us a shiny boxset forever and ever, and now they have, and... yay?

OK, so I'm being a shite fangirl and haven't watched any of the shiny extra bits and bobs yet (anyone seen the new-effects version of Enlightenment?  Cos frankly ( Read more... )

Apparently today is Unofficial Turlough Day.  Rejoice!

In celebration of Big Finish's announcement that Mark Strickson will be reprising his role as the one and only Turlough in a Companion Chronicle come November, and because silly_cleo  foolishly asked me to persuade her to like him, I bring you a collection of pimpy things.  (Most of them are old and ( Read more... )

Once upon a time, before John Nettles played a policeman investigating ridiculously unlikely crime amongst the posh people of Midsomer, he played a policeman investigating ridiculously unlikely crime amongst the posh people of Jersey in Bergerac. Like Shoestring only shit, Jim Bergerac's claim to fame was his massive nose and extraordinary poetic ( Read more... )

Adric's bedroom was a nice innocent place. Poster of space. Books. Eighties mesh chair that my friend Simon had. A perfectly acceptable place for a young Alzarian to curl up on a blanket and think about Maths.
