Work’s been really busy the last couple days and I found out today I don’t have a day off till Thursday
But at least it means lots of pennies to spend in Seattle. I’m also prolly gonna be purchasing my flights in the next couple of weeks since I’ve been saving.
I’m hardly bought anything the [...]
Doctor Who season four starts on Saturday and today Doctor Who: The Five Doctors popped through my letterbox. I ordered it the other day along with a book called Resistance which I really wanted and needed something to put my over £15 so I got free delivery, boy I wish I had Amazon Prime for [...]
I finished watching The Long Way Down tonight.
I really enjoyed it, I dunno if I liked it as much as Long Way Round though.
I think it was mainly because the majority of it was set in Africa which all sort of looks the same whereas Long Way Round went through loads of different countries in [...]
I finished watching The Keeper of Traken, the first part of my ‘New Beginnings’ trilogy revolving around the Master and the Doctor’s regeneration from Tom Baker to Peter Davison.
It wasn’t bad, not a whole lot happened and the planet of Traken was a bit dull. But it was cool to see the Master in the [...]
I watched Ghost Light last night. It’s from the last series of the original run of Doctor Who and stars Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor and Ace as his companion.
I quite like Sylvester as the Doctor and Ace is a pretty competent companion, if a bit gobby.
Sylvester also had the best title music, tho [...]
I just got done watching Genesis of the Daleks, one of the best loved Doctor Who stories of all time. I liked it up until the end, it felt like a cop out. I think back then it would’ve been more satisfying for viewers if the Daleks had been destroyed.
But of course then what other [...]
I came home from work today and there was an envelope for me, it was one of my DVDs from Amazon. But which?
Turned out it was The Sontaran Experiment, which I’d already seen but couldn’t really remember. It’s not bad, it doesn’t have much action in it and is only 45 minutes long.
However it contains [...]
I watched my third ‘classic’ Doctor Who DVD tonight.
Robot is Tom Baker’s first story and it wasn’t bad. Not really much in the way of action until the end when the horrifically bad special effects just made it laughable.
Interestingly though the Robot’s name was K1.
I was going to watch Genesis of the Daleks tonight but [...]
I think finding out that the old Doctor Who’s are actually quite good is going to turn out to be a bad thing for me. Or rather, my bank balance.
I was in town today meeting Chris for lunch and I went to Virgin and they had Robot for £9, well Amazon had it at [...]
I went into town today to meet Dad, Lorene, Mandy and Emma for lunch and a bit of shopping.
We had lunch at Scala, I think that’s what it was called, and I had potato and leek soup. It was pretty tasty but I would’ve liked it to be a little thicker, it was very watery. [...]
