We obey our Robot Overlords in all things. DOCTOR WHO — THE ROBOT REVOLUTION (S41E01)

Gonna quote this non-stop at my family get-together. Yes, I will do the dramatic voice. No, I won't explain what I'm doing.

One of my history teachers at school, a jovial Scottish man, used to do a spot on Katherine Hepburn impression. Only catch was that he could only do it for her line read of when she's telling Henry about the time she fucked his dad and that's just so weird to hear coming out of your history teacher's mouth.

listening to a man break up with his partner on the train and the first sentence I heard was "I just don't appreciate you cheating on me six different times, once with my own father."

**gets into bed and puts Eight and Lucie Miller on to lull me to sleep***

Today has aged me.

I always try and member the show is for 8 year olds. You would be amazed what 8 year olds will accept and roll with. Most kids in my year had no idea who the master was but fucking loved series 3. But there is also a point where you start to make kids feel like they're idiots and if their parents aren't super big who fans and can't answer their "what does that mean" questions - they will switch off.

I have enough doctor who content for my grown up brain, but I want my kids to also grow up watching this show and finales like this make that nearly impossible :(

When Gatwa Who started, it was pitched as such a fresh start, such a good jumping-on point that it wasn't series 14 of New Who, it was series 1 of a brand new third incarnation of Doctor Who

Quickly it became, in an arc sense, by far the most continuity-obsessed incarnation of modern Who. And there's a superfan tendency to laugh and celebrate this but no, it really is a bad decision to make so much of the emotional resonance of a show whose ratings are lower than ever, and at a point being pitched to casual fans as a *soft reboot*, depend on characters and story arcs from decades ago. It's an self-destructive decision. At the end of the day, did RTD have any ideas for what he wanted to do with Doctor Who, or did he just have a checklist of fanboy elements he wished he could've included the first time around

Russell, do you understand how difficult it was being the only child in the playground not obsessed with rose tyler? Do not make me go back there. I won't do it. I won't go back.

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]

You know when you really just wanna see a timeline.....like....at what point did you think "yeah ill just smash all 18 of these ideas together at once and get Billie to show up at the end. Everyone will love it!" because I'm seriously struggling over here

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]

Man I got so hyped about looms. Way to edge me in the nerdiest way possible, Russ

So, like...

My beautiful sexy Rani. What the hell was that. I wanted to eat her out, not for her to get eaten

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]

thirteen: hey just popped in to tell you you're tearing apart reality btw. you're gonna destroy the world and also us

fifteen, not taking in a single word: god so true bestie i DO miss being blonde

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]

I somehow managed to dodge the news and social media all night and morning. I think that may have been a mistake.

I could have seriously done with more emotional preparation before Reality War.

What. The. Fuck.

henry ii is in hell just like every other english king except edward the confessor (god wanted to keep him in hell, but it's a bad look to put your saints down there), but unlike every other english king, instead of being tortured with hot pokers, he is simply forced to watch becket (1964) every day whilst peter o'toole (also in hell) provides running commentary

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]

Magnificent. No notes.

idk why i dugadid this to myself

[pitofneverendingsarcasm]
