Naïve Old Fart

I went for a drive, this morning, listening to BATMAN OST. I pulled into my parking space just as DESCENT INTO MYSTERY finished. Class.

It's like Stephen Hawking meets the Speaking Clock. Sorry, no white flag, only had a piece of A4. Same thing, really. I surrender unto you. A very good idea.

Oh, come on, people, it's only a bloody movie? Ah. Sorry, but I just realised what I typed, there. So sorry.

I don't believe you. you're a liar.

He went from playing soft, to playing FUCKING LOUD, ok?

(sticks fingers in ears) not listening, not listening!

I never suggested that you did, Bes; from the looks of your avatar, it wouldn't be your style, at all. 2-bedded detached, I'd say, or maybe a MINORITY REPORT-style DC-ish red stone.

It's not brilliant, but Ron Cook was good, in it. Yes, FEAR HER is, simply, vile. I like VICTORY... and I love the Arnold touches, in the score. Ian McNeice is fantastic. KBO!

Odd that you've never heard of Rush. They are to Canada what Queen is to the UK.

Ron Cook is brilliant in THE IDIOT'S LANTERN.

To each his own. Wait 'till he starts watching JN-T! THE UNQUIET DEAD is great.

Hmm, this is nice stuff. Speaking of play-on-words: LES CHANTS MAGNETIQUE does not translate into English, because "fields", and "songs" do not rhyme. Stu's right. I believe that they are the only rock/pop musicians to be awarded the OC.

Wha'???!!!! Better than the absolute perfection, that is THE CHRISTMAS INVASION???!!!!!!

Agreed. Except the last Christmas special (which I will buy when it's issued with series 35), I own every one of SM's episodes as show runner. I even watched DEEP BREATH, today. Heck, I double-dipped for the Blu end-of MS set (the 50th ann. concert, at the RAH is stunning!). SM is not bad, but his tenure won't go down on DW history, as one of the best.

I'm sorry, Stu; when did you ever read the words "I hate Moffatt", in conjunction with one of my posts? Please tell me, because I'd love to know.

What about a Cor Anglais?

He's left, already, and damn good riddance, too. Chibnal is busy prepping the new series, for a July shoot.

I really should investigate his oeuvre. In the meantime, could you post 2112 ?

Tell that to Steven Moffatt

FYI, The Doctor's name is a mathematical formula, that is completely unpronounceable to anyone who is not from Gallifrey.

Also nice. The Cohen song is "Hallelujah" (), and the "Bom" song is heard on Silva's island. You must have heard of both of them, being French-Canadian.

Yes, Wilf. Goeff Noble was Donna's dad.

Actually, I get the tingles when The Doctor realizes what the four knocks are, and what they mean.

Nice, but...is it me, or does it sound like the child/hybrid of that BOM-DIDDY-BOM song, on the island, in SKYFALL, and that awful thing by Leonard Cohen?

OK, 6pm (geez, the fucking suspense!!!!).
