I watched Chris's documentary earlier today. Very nostalgic hearing from people who made something Iwatched so many years ago. It feels like it's been put together by someone who loves the original TV series and the books. Very recommended.

I know it is just the law and all that , but it still jars to see ‘Graham Linehan cleared of harassment’ when I think of just how much he has harassed (and spread lies about) friends of mine and never been shy of bothering me either .

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?
Well, I'm dead but Gary Oldman will avenge me. Small comfort.

Just read @outonbluesix.bsky.social point out that Space Adventure, the stock music for the Cybermen in 60's Dr Who, basically starts with the opening fanfare from Reet Petite by Jackie Wilson. That's going to make watching The Moonbase feel very different.

So there's a headline in The Times saying access to women's spaces should be based on how conventionally feminine you look. Is there any way this doesn't end with men manhandling women - cis and trans- and saying "It's her fault - she shouldn't have gone out dressed like that"?

Someone told me that cos there are nearly 800 episodes of the Simpsons, it's possible to describe all other shows with a clip from a Simpsons episode. So with that in mind, I'm going to use a freezeframe/gif to describe every classic Dr Who serial 😁 1 season per day...

For reasons I needed to watch Its a Wonderful Life again last night.
Will do a thread closer to Christmas about it, but next time you watch it, remember this:
Both Capra and Stewart had just come back from WW2. Consider every directing, script and acting decision with that context in mind.
