I love that, even during the climax of the action in one of the most epic #DoctorWho episodes, which was shown in cinemas across the globe, there’s a shot of two of Matt Smith’s script on the TARDIS console.
(Sorry for pointing it out, Matt! Love you!)

Time to mark the 62nd Doctor Who anniversary with a special episode that turns 12 today.
Probably still my favourite episode, it’s just so well done. Equal parts reverential and dramatic - John Hurt portrays the tragedy of The War Doctor, and the relief at the end of - so well.
Just wonderful.

I recently added this piece of majestic storytelling to my physical media collection in preparation for today.
It’s probably still my favourite episode.
And it’s fitting to watch it on the anniversary, because it’s such a celebration!

Yep, I’m gonna do it: it’s rewatch time!
Give me some of that delightful over-the-top, mid-90s, not-at-all subtle in its allegories, TV budget, campy sci-fi, delivered with charm and wonderful characters.
With the added cheat code of music cues from David Arnold’s spectacular score for the film.

With today’s news, it feels appropriate to chuck this on this evening.
I might even rewatch the shows between now and the new show’s release.

The anti-Indigenous hate is getting unhinged.
Here’s a little sign at Myer Albury acknowledging Mob, and some loser has obviously tired to remove it.
It’s just nice words to Aboriginal people, ya snowflakes.

The new one is pretty grand, and had the forethought that the country’s population is bound to grow and might get more representatives along with them, so could easily expand, but I just prefer the look of the old one.
