Well, the third year of the new Doctor von Wer began last night, and I think we're all starting to notice the signs that the BBC is gearing up for thirteen more episodes. There's the broad stuff, like the Radio Times cover, or the astonishing fact that, on Saturday morning, the new series of Doctor Who was the lead story on BBC News 24 - Auntie having apparently decided that the looming t

Neko Case - 'Hold On, Hold On'
The most tender place in my heart is for strangers
I know it's unkind but my own blood is much too dangerous
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time
.
Compared to some I've been around
But I really tried so hard
That echo chorus lied to me with its

'The Runaway Bride' is one of the first ideas Russell T Davies ever had for Doctor Who, according to the man himself. Which raises the question; what was that idea, exactly? I've just watched it, and I'm still none the wiser.
Perhaps it was a mystery? When discussing the teaser ending of 'Doomsday' with Tim, Tim opined that the appearance of the Bride was a wonderful c

Futile to argue about what the meaning of Christmas, in a traditional sense, is – is it a Christian holiday, a co-opted pagan one, something to do with throwing reindeer guts at stuttering children? – because history means nothing if the ideas being represented can’t stand on their own two feet. For some reason, this has become a particularly hot topic this year with the Sun’s ridiculous campaign against the

We're nearing the end of what's been, politically, a shit year. The Middle East is spiralling further into violent anarchy, mainstream politics is being dragged down further into insincerity and photo opportunism, the police are desperately struggling with rafts of kneejerk new sentencing procedures and mountains of senseless paperwork, and one ill-timed cat impersonation has made George Galloway an even more creepy

Compensating for last week's hottie-less revoltin' situation.
Monica Dean, born Monica Barladeanu, is a Romanian actress whose career includes the cinematic alpha and omega of festival favourite The Death of Mr Lazarescu and Second In Command, a movie where Jean-Claude Van Damme IS... something or other, I can't be bothered to check. TV work includes stints on Lost

I just thought I'd pop in a quick note explaining what's been going on the last few weeks.
Basically, I haven't had all that much time to write on this LJ - the time when I'm most bored is when I'm at work, and we don't have the internet there. (Cleveland Housing Advice Centre, marching confidently forward into the 1990s)
Most of my writing time is spent either writing my scripts, or writing

What does it mean to be British? In previous generations, the answer would have been simple; it means you are a citizen of a small collection of nations off the coast of France and the rest, like life, is what you make it. Now, though, the popular imagination is stalked by PC boogeymen in niqabs trying to get us to ban Christmas, replace roast beef with sheep's eyeballs and steal our first-born, so the question is

Presenting a new edition of the popular soap opera, Things in the Newspapers Which Have Driven Me up the Fucking Wall Recently.
Here’s how The Times reported the verdict that a sport star had the right to privacy over his affair with a married woman: “Adulterer wins the right to privacy”. Here’s some subheadlines for the same article: “Husband’s desire for revenge blocked”, “End of the affai
