It's pronounced /ˌændʒɨˈliːdɨs/

Writer, script editor and producer of licensed #DoctorWho and #Blakes7 stuff
I think it was @josephlidster.bsky.social who told me that it’s good for writers to give even minor characters a name, so that they have something for their CV or portfolio other than “Man with Umbrella” or “Hotel Receptionist”.

Whereas #Pluribus episode 4 has taken a different approach.

In this month’s DWM, I sit down with Carole Ann Ford for an epic 27-page chat. But here’s a bit of history: she was also Doctor Who’s first-ever interviewee! On 1 Sept 1963, the News of the World announced the show’s launch via a chat with Carole – complete w/DW’s first spoilers!

“The name is Kername… Why do you need to know the full…? Oh, all right, it’s Faye… No, I’m not using someone else’s credit card… well, all right, goodbye then!”
Left a real shitty review about our local chippie on Just Eat for a botched order, but their food is so good I don't want to find a new place so I place orders now under a different name when I go in to collect

I am being offered a replica of the Fourth Doctor’s woollen cardigan.

Disappointingly, it is offered in “100% premium quality acrylic” — not just any old acrylic, eh?

So the static electricity it generates will also be commemorative of when the Doctor wore it in #DoctorWho “The Ark in Space”.

Thought alot about doing this but ultimately glad I did share my menopause story: themenopausecharity.org/debbies-meno...
Debbie's Story - The Menopause Charity
Debbie's story shares how her experiences have shaped her sense of self, and how openness, talking therapy and friendship have helped her.

So I've done a fiction eligibility post! I've included my original story and my licensed Who story.

I've not included my story in 'Party Like It's 1998' since the print run was limited and that makes it hard to be read by anyone who didn't buy it at the time.

Episode 2 of #Lazarus she’s at it again in more classic explanatory dialogue:

“And to calm that, you’re hanging about staring at your father’s annoyingly vague suicide note.”

Nostalgia from a time I can remember: the imagery of behind-the-scenes book "The Making of Doctor Who" and the omnibus repeat of the story it featured on its cover, "The Sea Devils" (both 1972).

Now there a re-edit of that six-part story, in celebration of the new #DoctorWho spinoff in December.

Anemoia is nostalgia for a time or a place one has never personally known:

About 1 in 5 people in England are aged 65 or over (i.e. were adults in the mid-1970s), and almost two thirds were not yet born by 1975: ageing-better.org.uk/our-ageing-p...

“But when they worked out who did it, I was sacked as Head of Modern Languages”
In a school I worked there were separate staff and pupil toilets, the school decided to do away with the staff toilets & let anyone use them. They made them staff only again after "someone" curled a huge turd out & pissed in the middle of the floor. I'm not sorry.

These patriotic displays have gone a bit too far now, if you ask me.

Interesting that “like a dog” is one of his own disparaging terms of abuse about others.

Classic drama dialogue in Harlan Coben’s #Lazarus:

“The night of our dad’s funeral and you go for a walk past the home of the man accused of murdering our sister?”

Is that any way for the psychic sister of a forensic psychologist to talk to him while he’s doing the washing up?

Thank you @paulmagrs.bsky.social and @stevecolewriter.bsky.social for this wonderful book. Stories that show us the familiar from a new perspective, remind us to look at life through others' eyes, and that entertain and move, with fabulous illustrations. May there always be stories and storytellers!
