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.

Good grief, yes. Absolutely.

Eccleston was also in GI Joe: the Rise of Cobra. Hurt was in V for Vendetta and Snowpiercer.

Wasn't it a Sunday, not a Saturday?

Hope it passes soon. As a side note, I found your Christmas present earlier - saw it and thought of you, as the cliché goes.

Hope you feel better. I'm around if I can do anything.

RTD2's Christmas specials came 4th and 7th for the week. Chibnall's NYD specials came 14th, 10th and 26th for the week. Not sure your figures support you.

And Bob Fleming from The Fast Show inside.

Definitely in favour of Basil Rathbone as the Master.

Too clever. Not two clever. *mentally screams at self to proofread before hitting reply*

I guess it'd make a change having someone who just thinks he's one-eyed.

Or Thandiwe Newton deciding she wanted to be credited as Thandiwe rather than Thandie because she'd had enough of making allowances for people who wouldn't learn to pronounce her name right.

Yeah. Trump's followers assume anything he does without an obvious reason is him playing 4-D chess and being two clever for we mere mortals to follow. Rather than Trump being thick and/or senile.

We were talking about Michael Troughton's biography of his father recently. Just noticed that there's a new edition out. If you order from his website, he'll sign and dedicate it.

Well, this might unearworm you...

Going to file that with my conviction that Basil Poledouris might have seen Daleks Invasion Earth 2150 AD. If you're wondering why, compare the Roboman theme from Daleks... with Poledouris's Robocop March from the 1987 film.

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.

Classic Doctor Who legends set to reunite for exciting new project.

Yes - I think he's going to be the record for people whose faces you see, unless you start looking at bit parts like Pat Gorman or Harry Fielder.

Michael Sheard - died in Castrovalva (sort of), Remembrance of the Daleks, Invisible Enemy, Pyramids of Mars on tv and Stones of Venice for Big Finish.

Happiness will prevail!

John Steinbeck's dog ate the first draft of Of Mice and Men.

True enough, I guess. Still not enough for ne to be actually enthusiastic about it.

I'd sooner listen to Revolver, Magical Mystery Tour or Abbey Road, although that's at least partly because of the twee faux-Victoriana on some of Pepper, which just sets my teeth on edge.

Creeping Flesh! The Ghoul! Masks of Death!

Legend of the Werewolf as well, I suppose.

That would be very kind - it's one of my favourite films too. "Monster? We're British!"

Ah, slightly too far from Yorkshire for a trip. Shame. You don't have a picture by any chance? Horror Express is my landlady's favourite film.
