In a little video he just posted tonight, Peter Jackson disses Steven Moffatt... and, er, someone else....

Very funny, worth a look:

That was very funny. Thanks for the link.

This doesn't mean Peter Jackson is going to direct an episode of DW, does it?

Well, apparently he has been asked, and according to Moffat, he hasn't been replying to emails! So there's a bit of truth in there.

I just think this is a great piece of piss-takery (as well as a big tease). Love the bit about the Walking Dead at the end. His daughter is all grown up after playing one of the tiny cherub-like hobbit children in Fellowship of the Ring...

Capaldi has been here last week and did a delightful interview on breakfast telly... One of my favourite films of all time is Local Hero and I still see him as that gangly youth. He still has a bit of that gangly youth about him ...

Capaldi's great. I went off DW almost completely during the Matt Smith years, but now I feel all enthused about it again.

You're not the only one who has said that to me (re Matt Smith). I actually loved Matt Smith, especially at the beginning. I thought The Beast Below was one of the very best Doctor Who episodes. Liked Rory and Amy and the dynamic with River Song, the lonely centurion, and reverse courtship. But I hated Matt Smith with Clara, thought it was an awful dynamic, and I loathed the final episode with Matt Smith. (Might have been a Xmas one, the one where he aged and was making toys.) Think Clara and Capaldi have been a GREAT partnership, suddenly Clara actually seemed liked a real human being, starting with her revulsion and shock at her doctor suddenly ageing, which is such a vital part of the human/Doctor thing (though usually it would be the other way round, with the human ageing, as in Sarah Jane Smith
