GAH! WHY DO THEY HAVE TO KEEP MESSING WITH THE START TIME OF DOCTOR WHO?!?

Honestly, is it too much to have it start at the same time every week. Or maybe even approximately the same time. Especially when it's the second half of a two-parter. I bet I'm not the only person who's been caught out by the 6:35 start this evening; I imagine that there are a fair number of people tuning in around now expecting the closing stages of Strictly Dance Fever before Doctor Who starts some time just after seven. I do at least have a Sky box so I can get BBC3 for the repeat - except that there's no chance of me being home from London by seven tomorrow, so that's something of a moot point. Raaaaa!

Thank God for BitTorrent...

I practically sprinted from the the tube station to malachan's house, just to make sure I caught the beginning of it. But if it hadn't been for Cyg telling me the start time, I never would've caught it.

Alas for having no-one to remind me. I'll just have to remember to check the listings next time. And for a moment, it looked like I might actually make it home in time to catch tonight's repeat, but that's now beginning to look highly unlikely...

Smug git!

Bad science often happens in Doctor Who. In fact, bad science often happens in most sci-fi. And the Doctor, like most eponynymous heroes, does have a habit of saving the day.

As for the questionable ethics, they were much in evidence last week...

At proddings from Freya: hello!

And I completely agree. It'll only get worse with the sodding world cup upon us. :(

Also at proddings from Freya: hello! I've friended you back, so you can now see several times as much of the thrillingness of my life. Yes...

Gah! Why does there always have to be some big sporting event which plenty of us aren't interested in playing havok with the schedules. Not to mention causing a rash of St George's Cross flags everywhere.

Hello there. I apologize for the intrusion, but as you have "reboot" listed as one of your interests I felt you would want to know about what is currently taking place.

I've started what I call the "Revival of ReBoot". Please take a moment to check out that link, and if you feel you wish to be a part of this, kindly join us at the Java Hut.

Thank you for your time, and stay frosty. :)
