This entire 30 day challenge suddenly feels like the setup to this wonderful payoff.

Side note - I think my DanDanDan EP review is still up somewhere on the Internet

These two terms aren't mutually exclusive though.

I think, much like Star Wars, a lot of Doctor Who fans just want to hate every episode these days. At least with Star Wars it's broadly deserved.

I also liked it except for the very final scene which was maybe a little too on the nose

I've just had my fourth and probably final

Some people have received scratchcards which seem to confirm Nothing But Thieves. That said, At The Drive In would be one hell of a get out of nowhere. Also Ren seems unlikely due to his long term health issues.

At this point the Twitter experience is just terrible on purpose, no?

There's a lot of "free" stuff at the site too. I don't believe you need a ticket to get into the building, only for the game. Theres a little museum with articles from the show (including contestant art), a handful of tasks to complete, a bar & food stall and the design of the outside area is good.

Is it worth it? £50 and maybe £70 tickets are? £100 tickets are harder to justify for an hour but we had a laugh and would have regretted not going. It's faithful to the show, funny and the tasks are well adapted. Very fun because of the recordings from Greg & Alex, our assistant and in-jokes.

Haven't started watching the international versions yet but the two friends I went with have been enjoying the Aus one.

"Worth it" question in next post as I need all 300 characters lol.
