Tonight's Doctor Who was the best in many years. Absolute classic. We all had to grab each other's hands in fear. And didn't eye roll at all. Excellent! #DoctorWho #TheWell

We've been rewatching all the NuWho ones. I read your pieces after each one, and our views are almost 100% aligned. (Just done first Matt Smith series. Stellar.)

Gonna try to go to the cinema more often in 2025. First up: Babygirl. Main question, is it *supposed* to be funny? Lots of giggles from me and others in the room. 5 out of 10. (Last non-kids film I saw was Anora which is truly excellent, 10 easily)

Spending Saturday evening catching up with Wolf Hall series 1. Eleven year old is hooked... (Top tip, even having read them: watch with subtitles. And the book's character lists are very useful reference points)
