Still catching up on the last of Chibnall Who. Eve of the Daleks was decent enough. Would have been nice if the Daleks had better aim and if the they explained how they knew the timeloop would end at midnight but those are pretty small criticisms that don't seriously undermine what was otherwise one of the best episodes of Chibnall's run.

This hasn't happened for a Companion since Sophie Aldred. Arguably, it's only happened for her, Bonnie Langford, Sarah Sutton, Matthew Waterhouse, maybe Nicola Bryant depending on her memories of watching tv as a toddler.

Oh, two hearts and a ruby. Here I was thinking it was a deck of cards thing. How's the whole "two young ppl traveling the universe' gonna work out when one of them is 800 years old or whatever?

Probably the same way it happened the last few times they've gone to that well. Hopefully with less "will they/won't they?" romantic energy, but I don't know if the modern show can move away from that approach entirely based on fan response (people dropped off hard when the Capaldi era let that poo poo go, and then fans willed the whole Thirteen+Yaz thing into existence in the last few episodes despite neither character remotely hinting at that in the first two seasons).

I’m in the process of decluttering/packing to move home and I discovered a model which for a number of years I believed I had given away to a charity shop or lost. It’s a talking Dalek produced by Product Enterprise in the very early 00s and was purchased 2002/2003. The oval plate sitting between the gun boxes serves as the button and when pushed it barks some suitably angry phrases and the lights on the dome flash in time. While it does have a number of inaccuracies mainly due to incorporating design elements from different designs over the course of the show, the dimensions and proportions are spot on. They were sold in a variety of colours representing different designs through the era, though there was only one mould, so despite having the colours of an Imperial Dalek, it hasn’t got any of the unique design elements. Unfortunately, mine has seen better days. The white elements are badly discoloured and this is especially bad on the rear shoulders and dome. The dome lights were originally clear.  The gold looks to be painted on and may have also suffered from UV damage as well as coming off. The skirt hemispheres and fender have suffered especially badly.  The right gun box is cracked and slightly dented.  The battery compartment has at some point had a battery leak and the contacts badly corroded. This clearly won’t do, and as I’ve gotten rather good at miniature painting over the years I’m going to disassemble, strip, repair and repaint it and have it looking better than it was when new. I’ve decided it’s going to be one of the following schemes, and I’d like to see which one people think I should go for.
I won’t be starting until we’ve settled into our new place so have a bit of time to decide, as well as ensuring I can dismantle it properly first. Despite the state it’s in it is still in better condition than the props in Destiny of the Daleks.

Doctor: Please state the nature of the medical emergency. Doctor: Well it's a.... it's a thing. Doctor: A.... "thing" Doctor: Yes, a... it's a bad thing. It's complicated. Doctor: You activated a medical hologram and the best you can come up with is that it's "a thing". Are you stupid? Doctor: My species are considered probably the smartest in the universe! Doctor: And you're representing them? What, did the rest all die? Doctor (clucking tongue): Well.... that's a..... Doctor: A thing? Doctor: It's a thing, yes.

Emperor’s Guard, all the way. Such a cool colour scheme. On another note, I was reading somewhere that before the announcement that RTD was coming back and while the Power of the Doctor was being written, the future of the show was in serious doubt - like, 1987-style hiatus doubt. This is why the episode has so many call-backs and stuff. Can anyone confirm?
