Spaceman. If I’m not writing, reading or working, I’m probably walking and listening to Big Finish. Enid Blyton fan.
Watching The Invasion.

I had no idea Benton originated in this episode!!

I have low calorie hot chocolate powder that is an absolute delight.

Love a good hot chocolate when the air is cold!

Its December 1st

Mince Pies now allowed

Quality Street, yes, but only in communal situations rather than grazing at home

Matchmakers, as ever, continue to be embargoed until Christmas Eve

The festive season is more fun when the #christmaspolice are around

Some kids get put on telly for singing to a ring doorbell.

I sing and dance in front of our ring doorbell all the time. Don’t see me on telly.

If Big Finish ever do a Sontarans version of the upcoming Cybergene, these things better be involved.
ON THIS DAY... 31 years ago, Shakedown: Return of the Sontarans was first released by Reeltime Pictures.

It’s December.

This is the first Christmas I have been looking forward to in years (thank you depression, but finally sodding off.)

Seeing an old friend for coffee this week, then Christmas market (and hopefully all of my Christmas shopping) the week after.

So I adored The Daughter of the Gods when I listened to it a few months ago…

But now I know that the title comes from the Hartnell speech when Katarina gets air locked, I feel like there’s loads I missed.

I OWN THIS!

It’s somewhere.

And the second I purchase another copy, I’ll find it.

So mad.

Wait the series 1 finale of Torchwood makes it look like the TARDIS materialised in the Hub?!

How didn’t I notice that?

I love how filthy the door to the Torchwood cell is. Proper makes the world feel lived in.

Stuck some Torchwood series 1 on.

I was taken aback by Andy. He’s like a lil baby boy!!

I’m so used to him on the covers of big finish audios 😂

Busy weekend in the bookshop! Lots of conversations and laughter, loud music and books everywhere. @pandasbooksrecords.bsky.social

So I was a huge Ng hater when listening to Torchwood The Story Continues.

It proper got on me nerves what she did to Gwen, then we were forced to accept her as part of the team.

Having said that, when I look back on the series, her character proper stands out.

I often think of Aliens Next Door!

OWEN: I can’t go in there.

IANTO: Why?

OWEN: It’s got a hygiene level of one.

IANTO: Could be worse…

OWEN: How?

IANTO: Could be a zero.

👏 I love Ianto and Owen. So fun.

So for ages I’ve hated the list of ‘purchases’ on the Big Finish app. It’s so bogged down with part 1’s I tried before buying a story.

Well, today I learnt it’s possible to ‘hide’ certain purchases if you go on the site.

Can’t believe I never knew this. Can finally clean up the app a bit.

I love Owen and Tosh.

I wonder why Big Finish never did an Owen and Tosh story.

They paired her up with Ianto plenty of times.

I remember they were great in Believe!

After my watch-through of The Daleks Masterplan, I listened to The Sontarans and Knights of the Round TARDIS - both brilliant stories that really compliment the serial.

I need to search out more serials that pair well with Big Finish stories.

Just stuck an episode of Class on, saw a sad montage of someone missing their dead mum, then switched it off because I wasn’t in the mood to be sad.

But what did I replace it with? A bloody episode of Torchwood.

Make it make sense.

Some terrible doctor who memes that made me laugh

Lovely bit from the Big Finish podcast:

“Lisa McMullin is Christopher Eccleston's favorite writer at Big Finish. He specifically admires her for her ability to use the villains of a story to flesh out the characters involved.”

Well deserved praise of the brilliant @lisamcmullin.bsky.social

Releases 14th December.

Why do I feel like I’m going to be saying “I’ll get it as a little Christmas gift to myself” a lot this year…

I’m watching through The Daleks Masterplan for the first time. Hopefully a thread, if I remember.

Episode 1 tonight (because I’m getting sleepy) - I’ve seen it before, animated by the brilliant JanjyGiggins.

(Is this DVD cover real? Because I couldn’t find the dvd for sale anywhere!)
