The Scriptorium

( Happy Birthday, jackycomelately! I’m posting this a day early because I know jackycomelately has been swamped at work, and I thought she might find it more convenient to receive this on the weekend. Of course, she’s welcome to read this insane fic anytime she likes. :-) )

From May 29th until July 23rd, Twitch is going to be showing classic Doctor Who episodes. Yes, I know we've missed the first few days on the schedule, but there are still a lot of episodes that have yet to be broadcast. You can find everything you need here:

I should point out that there are two schedules: one for US Pacific screening times and one for UK screening times. To be honest, it's going to be a struggle for me to watch most of the episodes, but I'll be happy if I can catch even a few of them. There are some episodes I've never seen or would love to rewatch.

I originally learned about all this through ganimede, so I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to her for sharing this information! :-D

I only just realized (thanks to an email from the BBC Doctor Who Official Shop) that today is the tenth anniversary of New Doctor Who, which debuted on March 26, 2005. I can't believe it's been ten years! I still remember tuning in to watch that first episode, excited but trepidatious after the previous attempt to resurrect the franchise (that awful 1996 TV movie). Happily, I didn't have to get too far into the episode before I realized that New Who was good. Really, really, really good. ( Thank Rassilon! )

( This is a tiny bit early, but...Happy Birthday, jackcomelately! )

*Jumping up and down* Found the perfect shower curtain yesterday! My mom and I were in Sunrise Records and both gasped when we saw it. ( Click for the COOL! )

Thanks to alysscarlet, I was able to watch Peter Davison's HILARIOUS and absolutely priceless Doctor Who fiftieth anniversary spoof sooner than I expected. It's 30 minutes and features a lot of familiar faces. In fact, I was amazed at the number of cameos, all of which were GOLD. Anywaaaaaay, it's called The Five(ish) Doctors (in case you hadn't heard), and you can find it here:

You're not going to believe it, flisters, but I've received another postcard from a
Time Lord! Oh, and it's not just any Time Lord, but my favourite Doctor! Tee hee! :-D








It's so sweet that the Fifth Doctor cares. And as his postcard also has a Canadian stamp on it, I'm assuming he either asked a good and kind-hearted Canadian (and quite very possibly a friend of mine) to mail it on his behalf. Then, of course, he could have infiltrated Canada Post (child's play for a Time Lord, I'm sure) or maybe he even travelled here and sent the postcard himself...Well, however the Fifth Doctor managed it, I'm very grateful for the postcard from him (and any accomplices). Thank you very much, Doctor! :-D

( Allons-y! )

( Best wishes and many very, very happy returns! )
