  1. Social media superfans are ruining TV by Gareth Roberts.
    Once-great shows, such as Doctor Who and Star Trek, are spoilt by TV execs who ignore rank-and-file viewers #drwho #scifi telegraph.co.uk/tv/2026/05/10/

  2. I really should sit down with the #DoctorWhoMovie, again.

    Why … ?

    Because of the #EricRoberts version of the #Master.

    #Delgado and #Ainley played the Master as a #GentlemanVillain

    #Simm, #Gomez and #Dhawan as #DrWho’s version of the #Joker.

    #Roberts? Played him as a #thug … 

  3. We've reached Pertwee's era in our #DrWho journey. While Troughton's Doctor often convinced adversaries to underestimate him though childish bumbling, Pertwee's feels like he wouldn't suffer his previous self gladly: he has no time for that shit. We've just seen what feels like the first real instance of universal compassion & bigger-picture thinking in Who up to now: upon his first face-to-face encounter with a Silurian (teased in last episode's cliffhanger), despite the fact it's just killed a key character his first impulse is to offer his hand and ask how he can help.

    It's good to see the Brig return as a regular character, and Liz Shaw is a fantastic companion, assertive & independent, & routinely treated as an equal by the Doctor. She feels like the first true female *companion*, as opposed to *assistant*. It's not perfect by modern standards, but easy to see it as a 1970's version of 'woke'. I wonder how many people were angered by it at the time?

  5. What's your favourite #DrWho villain?

    Mine is the inflatable plastic chair that eats you if you sit in it

  6. Watching #DrWho from the beginning update: We've reached Spearhead from Space. New Doctor (in chaotic new Doctor mode)! New Liz Shaw! New Autons! Returning Lethbridge-Stewart! COLOUR! Also what looks like higher production values! And an alien that looks a lot like an anus.

  8. Nach all den den zerstörten Fandoms wie #StarTrek und #DrWho dürfen wir die Hoffnung auf gute Unterhaltung nicht aufgeben. Es gibt sie noch.
    #Scrubs hat mit seinem Reeboot alles richtig gemacht und zeigt wie es geht.

  9. Here’s an old acrylic sketch of Mavic Chen (played by Kevin Stoney) from The Daleks' Master Plan

  10. Watched the first three episodes of the #Daleks Master Plan back-to-back.

    I enjoyed seeing #NicholasCourtney 's first on-screen appearance in #DoctorWho. Unfortunately Bret Vyon's story arc remains incomplete — the character dies in still-missing episode 4.

    #SpecialEffects and model shots were pretty good for the 1960s but not referenced at all in the end credits.
