Have they got new anti-trans stuff to help them shout loudly?
November 11, 2025 at 10:53 PM
No and yes in that order

Meh, "Code Name: Bond" is my preferred easy get out clause that ties in with Bond continuity! :D

I've never really mastered casting to the TV. If I want/need to watch on double speed I just do it on the android tablet
November 11, 2025 at 7:07 PM
LOL That was about 10 days ago in the marathon for me

than anticipated. Some suitably manic performances and an interesting set up (till the aliens make it clear where part of the story will lead), the resolution/explanation for which I don't yet remember so, though I don't expect huge amounts of surprise tomorrow... yeah, more positive than expected.

Oh, so THAT'S how you do "fall out from the previous story" to create a sense these are real people. This is another one that I didn't remember much about before I put the first two parts on. Odd bits came back though, and Debbie Watling (so far) has been better

Yup, I'd describe him as a BLANK BLANK too

Unless you're certain straight, white, cis-gendered males who seemingly lack imagination and intelligence!

My New Avengers just turned up. The only way I could be more impressed would be for some sort of PDF archive but I guess we have been spoilt by Who and B7. Amazing set!

Tara works best when viewed in production order so you actually SEE her learning and improving. Broadcast order is so crucking random it removes all sense of continuity for the character

Careful, he'll sue you for $1B
November 11, 2025 at 3:53 PM
Believe us, you still look superb
November 11, 2025 at 3:32 PM
For publicity basically
November 11, 2025 at 1:20 PM
Does the picture represent all the previous Bonds that have been embalmed or something because that's a terrifying image!
November 11, 2025 at 12:53 PM
oooooooooooooooooh wow
November 11, 2025 at 12:35 PM
You could even get your staff to look at all the suggestions made to see which ones people seemed to li..... actually, probably better if they don't do that
November 11, 2025 at 12:17 PM
Fine, I'll cancel the Bond-age shoot for Hemsworth
November 11, 2025 at 12:13 PM
Doesn't Lazenby say "This never happened to the other guy"?

And if they're worried about keeping it "constant", how do they explain away the fact Bond must be about 90 by now?

Nah, it's easy.
If your family goes back a 100/150 years to people who worked shift systems, you're lower class.
If you come from a family that's always worked the equivalent of a 9-5 job, you're middle class.
If your ancestors had people to do the work for them, you're upper class.

Yeah.... I think I might be reading it in full tonight to see what other things are in there!

This is the interview I was looking at (few paragraphs down the first column), irritatingly AISAT doesn't give a source for the interview (well, not on a quick skim read of the stuff before it starts) but it definitely claims it's Newman's own words
November 10, 2025 at 10:00 PM
Oh I know those well BUT I think I've found the source of "crotchety". Sydney Newman himself describes wanting the Doctor to be a "crotchety old bugger (any kid's grand-father)". I suspect people didn't want to deviate from Sydney's description, even if the series did.
