Going to start watching TWATBLAST at nine on catch up, and having seen comments about the sound on here already, be putting the subtitles on. Thanks Skeeters. Theeters.

Are we actually supposed to like Russell Tovey's character in this? Everything he's saying is correct (hello RTD mouthpiece), but... He's also a massive twat. #TheWarBetweenTheLandandtheSea

You, uh, do eventually intend to have UNIT in your UNIT spinoff, right? #TheWarBetweenTheLandAndTheSea

Is #TheWarBetweenTheLandAndTheSea really bloody quiet for anyone else? Had the volume on 8 for The Sea Devils, I've had to knock it up to 30.

Now, now - it has nothing to do with Doctor Who. It can't do, otherwise they would've said, wouldn't they? In the continuity announcement. Or with the Whoniverse logo at the start. Or with a "From the world of Doctor Who" caption. #ThisWasAlwaysThePlan
"Next on BBC One, created by Russell T Davies and starring Russell Tovey, it's Russells all the way as we rustle up a Russelltacular new drama." #DoctorWho

I can't believe they've redesigned #TheSeaDevils. Why wouldn't you have this on a major primetime BBC1 drama series in 2025? #DoctorWho #TheWarBetweentheLandandtheSea

That business with the sandwiches in #TheSeaDevils is weirdly cruel even for Pertwee's Doctor, isn't it? I know it's kind of played as him being oblivious, but really he's just acting like a dick. #DoctorWho

You'll... end them? I mean, I'm not saying it won't solve the problem, but it's a bit drastic.

The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
And oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid like
"You just lost the game"

The stars get red

The finest minds and most talented artists can’t ever seem to make green-screen footage of an actor pretending they’re outdoors look convincing.
I love PLURIBUS but I saw a rooftop scene that looked barely better than this.

I just saw a Tim Vine joke book in a charity shop. I flicked it open and the first joke I saw was:
George Lucas has a snotty younger brother. His name's George Mucus.
I put the book back on the shelf. I like Tim, but sometimes it's possible to write too many jokes, isn't it?
