Hey After the War, do I remember correctly that it was you that I sent a little Billy Hartnell comic along with your Secret Santa present

Idris Elba just seems too... above something like Doctor Who. And I don�t mean that as an insult toward him or the show, I just can�t see him running down corridors and monologuing to Daleks. I know he�s been in other genre stuff like Pacific Rim and Star Trek, but he still played fairly serious characters in both those films. He�d also be the most well-known actor to take the role, even more so than Eccleston, Capaldi, or Davison were when they were cast, and I prefer it when the show casts relative unknowns or actors who�ve mostly stuck to tv in the past.

Yeah, with someone on a level like Idris, you'd just be just be constantly waiting for them to announce they're leaving. OR you'd end up waiting for years between seasons like with Sherlock as Bamblesporn Cucumberness got progressively more famous.

You can hear a tiny snippet of 11�s �I am the Doctor� theme when 10 is running back to the TARDIS on the Ood planet at the start of �The End of Time�.

Man, Grace�s death has left a really bad taste in my mouth. It felt very unnecessary, and they telegraphed it coming quite hard. I was hoping it was a misdirect, but no.

I hope all the dumb nerds are still mad about a Lady Doctor because this was really good.

I did see a Facebook comment last night night about how he's (of course it was a he) not watching any more because the Doctor has to be male. I'm going to extrapolate that he only sees men as worthy of respect or something.

I used to live in a small city with a population only slightly larger than that of Sheffield (and way more spread out) and I'd bump into people I knew all the time, or something would happen and at least one person you knew was there or involved so it's really not outside the limits of possibility.

That small size a city, you definitely get the feeling of knowing a good chunk of the populous, if not by name, by sight, and everyone else is only 1-2 degrees of separation away.

I'm just glad it's presented as a normal group without back patting going on. Bill in the previous series rubbed me up the wrong way slightly for that reason - it was fantastic she was black and gay, but she announced the latter aspect of herself at the most random and weird moments at several points which was kind of jarring.

I'm dying! Thanks for letting me like girls!

Really? When should she have mentioned it?

Plus, as an gay myself, I have to point out to straight people who never realise this, but you never stop coming out. It's never a once and done deal. You have to continually come out to every person to whom it might be relevant, and honestly it's exhausting.
