that SNW clip didn’t rub me the right way. This video gets into why…

Plenty of US shows go live on streamers at midnight for one of the coasts, seems like they’re just treating Doctor Who the same but for the UK?

I suspect it will be still family viewing, just a little dark for some young kids to watch solo maybe

That’s literally what I thought and still kinda think even after his comments

Yeah I think a lot of Chibnals detractors are in for a rude awakening. Sure, you can say it wasn’t woke for RTD1 but that’s nostalgia considering he:

• parodied Tony Blair with John Simms master
• created an out and proud pansexual in Harkness
• portrayed the Doctor as ambiguous sexually, accepting advances from Jack and Lynda (?) In parting of ways
• the slitheen two-parter being commentary on the war on terror and false claims of WMDs

I think that in the time since 2010, RTDs writing experience and the general increase in right wing radicalisation since 2015 are combining to create these decisions like able bodied Davros or 14 regenerating clothes

Source?

It wouldn’t be so bad if classic who was consistently paced. The black and white episodes had some real bangers that I was engaged for the fill 22 minutes, but a lot were just slogs.

In principle I do believe a good story can carry anything - visuals are secondary in a compelling plot.

VPN for now sadly. Torrent sites might have it at some point but not yet last I checked.

I started this summer, and I’ve made it to the Pertwee era last week.

Unless she trespassed there’s nothing illegal. I don’t think she shared a specific address. It IS (was?) against the YT TOS but they only care about what makes returns for Google’s shareholders.

Twitter too now

Gatekeeping the Fediverse? Cringe

I wish I could say this was me but there’s been a couple of times thst I’ve been knocked on my ass by something, but every test I’ve taken came up negative

I deadass probably watched a reconstruction in my classic who watch through but I didn’t even remember it until i started paying attention to the 60th special rumors.

Josh Snares has some videos on it iirc

How bout your friends or Czech spaces elsewhere on the Fediverse?

Just trying to be helpful and optimistic

Precisely! I try to comment and post partly for the purpose of generating activity

I actively try to post when I see this happen.

What communities are you experiencing this with? Maybe we share some interests.

Love the Avengers Tower-style UNIT headquarters

I thought it would be for the 60th so that would mean November for some of it, and I think then it’s a Christmas Special. Idk how many total are with 14 before the proper season with 15.

On isolated, super rural areas where you’re the only person on a dirt road for miles, I think it might be unavoidable during parts of the year or if the road is really intensive to bike (steep, sharp curves for example) BUT that’s where you should be able to drive to your village or town center and pick up the 15-30 minute regional train.

Likewise that would mean the people closer to town who might already be walking to the barber or liquor store would also be able to walk to the station if they needed to go farther.
