Smashing stuff this. I need to do more Who vids. I stick a random reference to Orcini in an Orson Welles vid, or quote Graham Crowden talking about a Criterion release...but need to get back to Who talk!

Can’t believe this channel has under 100 subscribers… this is great stuff

I don't think Moffat understands women, and I'm damned sure he doesn't unstand lesbians. Considering he once described his sex life during his early days at the BBC using the metaphor of a "mechanical digger" I think he thinks there are men... women... and lesbians, and some women fancy men, and some fancy lesbians... He's not sure how or why this works, but I think he must have had some very domineering female influences in his early llife, because he writes women as either dominatrix level control monsters (who he wants to fuck) scary domineering older women, (who he secretly wants to fuck) and the boring women who he doesn;t think are worth fucking. His stories that everyone regards as "Classics" are usually based around having a certain number of "Wow Points" such as "Bill is a Cyberman!" "Missy meets The Master!" "The Doctor runs round using the Sonic like its Worfs Purple Space Bazooka from Insurrection"... "The Statue of Liberty is a fucking Weeping Angel"... and the story is then contrived to hit those points. Some people ignore the inconsistencies in plot, character, physics and common sense and post weepy emojis, while others sit there wanting to know what the fuck is happening... With episodes like Blink and The Girl In the Fireplace the direction and acting is so good you miss a lot of the problems and they are good enough that you are prepared to handwave a few goofs. But by this point in his tenure the goodwill he built with those earlier great stories has gone, unless you are a relative newcomer, or a fucking "Neo-Shippper" And lets not get started on his obsession with bringing back something just because it was popular with fans, so its an easy win... regardless of whether that involves casually, OFF SCREEN, raising the fucking dead.

Without checking, didn't The Family Ness have a different song over the closing credits, that had a line that went something like 'you'll never see a Nessie in the zoo'?

The use of 'Air' by Talking Heads. 👌

If Mark Gatiss took the surname Chinnery from Dennis Chinnery, I rather suspect it was based on his appearance in Genesis of the Daleks...

I think that, and I appreciate I may be guilty of looking at 40 year old media with 2024 spectacles on, the biggest problem with the Doctor attempting to choke Peri is that it paints any later regret on the Doctor's part as akin to an abusive relationship, where a partner repeatedly shows remorse or appears to and then remains dangerous, with the victim remaining in a toxic relationship. If they'd just had the Doctor get paranoid that Peri could have been an alien spy...still with Turlough on his mind, perhaps...and start to rant about that without physically assaulting her, then that could have gotten the same point across in a less problematic way?

My own attitude to Caves is that it itself is epic, taut, suspenseful, almost operatic, and a great finale for Davison's Doctor. The problem was that it works as part of a varied palette, but its influence loomed so large over the following season that we didn't get enough light and shade in Season 22.

BTW - I'm lookng forward to when you guys get round to reviewing that appallingly bad Australian K9 series. The level of acting makes the average school play look like a production by the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Oh god, it's terrible. The twins' can't act for shit. And their 'computers' are clearly Grandstand Scamble games. But did you guys notice that part of Jabba the Hutt's hookah was stuck to the big gold wall (and sprayed gold). It appears in a shot behind Colin Baker.

Brilliant. The closing credits 😂

Superb @jasondrwho x

Best description ever.

Paradise Towners is great, I honestly don't see why some people dislike it so much.

Good god I was nervous.

Well done guys, cracking material!
