The Day I Met A Dalek

Published on 5 May 2009 in 11th Doctor. 4 Comments Tags: , , .

So there I was, in Bradford, at the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television when I saw a Dalek.

Cripes I thought, I’d better be careful it looks really far away, but they can trundle quite quickly on level, perfectly smooth, ground. I’d better make a dash for it. You can see the fear in my eyes!

It was at the point above that I realised I’d been duped. It wasn’t far away at all it was just really, really tiny.

And shit.

How they plan on conquering the universe is beyond me. Short arse Skaro bastards.

Is Doctor Who Dire?

Published on 29 April 2009 in 11th Doctor. 2 Comments

Perhaps I’ve been a little bit hasty in calling this site Doctor Who Is Dire. Given that I’m a fan of Doctor Who in principle and that I don’t really hate it.

Mayhap I should just have called it New Doctor Who Is Dire? Even that would be a little misleading as some of the new episodes have been rather good. Hmmm?

I suppose if I’m honest it should really have been called Russell T Davies Is The Worst Writer Of Sci-Fi In The World, not quite so easy to remember though is it?

Happy Birthday Russell T Davies

It was Russell T Davies birthday today. He was 46.

For those not in the know Russell T Davies is responsible for single handedly destroying the Doctor Who franchise with his ludicrous storylines and his shoehorning in of his own personal agenda to story lines. This is him.

Under his tutelage the series has seen its popularity rocket and its credibilty plummet.

He has been responsible for some of the most awful dialogue ever to be written, reaching its nadir with Banakafalata‘s famous speech about his shame at being a cyborg (gay) and Astrid Peth‘s rejoinder that there was no need to be ashamed at being a cyborg (gay) as cyborgs (gay people) can marry!

He is a first rate writer of drama but his grip on sci-fi is poor at best. His departure from Doctor Who can only be viewed as a good thing and I wish him every success with his next project, provided that is that it isn’t the Doctor Who movies.

The New Doctor

As it happens posts on the new Doctor.

    I’m done. This is more than a little disappointing.
  • 18:07
    Blah, blah. Matt Smith is now telling us he he got a letter from David Tennant. Cloying horseshit.
  • 18:03
    My bad. He does. Have a look.
  • 18:01
    He doesn’t even have an IMDB entry! This could be great, or very, very shit.
  • 18:00
    Matt Smith is the new Doctor. Who the fuck is Matt Smith?
  • 17:59
    Ooh, They’re talking regeneration!
  • 17:57
    Paul McGann gets a decent length of time though. Steven Moffat likes the idea of snogging too. Hmmm.
  • 17:56
    Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy only get 20 seconds!
  • 17:55
    The new Doctor looks old but is young. Who is it? Flipping heck it’s confusing.
  • 17:54
    Steven Moffat also likes Tom Baker’s performance!
  • 17:50
    The new Doctor is 26!
  • 17:48
    Steven Moffat really likes John Pertwee. A good sign!
  • 17:46
    Blah, blah, it’s a Doctor retrospective. RTD wittering on about how the series has never changed. Bollocks.
  • 17:42
    Martin Freeman is just younger than David Tennant but is he an unknown?
  • 17:39
    The new Doctor is younger than David Tennant and an unknown.

Well That’s That Pooched Then

No sooner had I posted the Super Hans for Doctor Who than BBC posted the news that the new Doctor would be revealed on the 3rd January. They’ve also pulled that he-or-she cobblers again.

I’m not impressed.

Unless of course Super Hans is the next Doctor!

Super Hans For Doctor Who!

After lengthy dicussions, we have decided that the ideal actor to play Doctor Who after David Tennant is Matt King, or as you may know him Super Hans from Peep Show.

Look at him, he’s perfect!

In light of my terrible lack of devotion to this site I have decided to stop using pages and go back to using posts.

Consequently all of the comments that everyone had made on myself and Tony’s rantings, have gone.

As I say, sorry.

Welcome To Doctor Who Is Dire

Published on 1 May 2008 in 11th Doctor. 0 Comments

Having watched most of the re-imagined Doctor Who since its launch back in 2005, I have found myself becoming increasingly frustrated at its lack of imagination and its willingness to trot out the same tired old baddies and aliens time and time again.

This sense of frustration has grown and grown until eventually it reached a stupefying crescendo a few weeks ago with the screening of the abysmal ‘The Sontaran Stratagem’, with its ridiculous aliens and hammy acting it managed to completely trounce the last remaining hopes I had that Doctor Who could be great again.

The program has become a vehicle for Russell T Davies’ egotistical desires. He’s slowly raping each and every Doctor Who property, one by one. Sometimes even two at a time.

So in order to vent my frustration I bought the domain DoctorWhoIsShit.com and set about creating a repository for my musings.

I hasten to add it’s not finished yet but I’m going to be posting on it anyway. So there.
