Realised recently that I don't get writer's block, but I do get writer's laziness.

Paul McGann should play George Orwell

Has anyone noticed that Jan Wright, the costume designer on The Two Doctors, attempts to make most of the Troughton-adjacent characters grey-scale, because he was the black and white Doctor? Even Jamie only puts his full tartan on when he meets Colin (though Shockeye's the odd one out) #DoctorWho

The Brigadier's memory loss in Mawdryn Undead only works if nobody who knew the Doctor contacts the Brig at any point between 1977 and 1983. Surely Sarah Jane must have rang him up at least once? Benton would’ve called up to ask for a reference. Jo must’ve popped round for a fondue party. #DoctorWho

Watching Ann Droid, and it's really rather lovely. There's a bit in Ep 4 where Sue Johnston says, "Sit down, Linda" which had me howling, and one in ep 5 where Linda says, "Did it have a government and judiciary?" which did likewise. Not quite sure what the message of the series is. AI is OK?*

I find the Letby case remarkable. I’ve no idea if she did it or not, but if a team of 14 eminent international paediatricians saying ‘no murders took place’ isn’t reasonable doubt, what the fuck is?

You know that old one about the War Chief being the Master? Well, in Mark of the Rani, the Rani says, “I've been coming to this wretched planet for centuries […] The Trojan wars, the Dark Ages, the American War of Independence.” i.e. the plot of The War Games. The War Chief is the Rani! #DoctorWho

Time Teamer Paul Blinkhorn, on Carry On Behind.

Right, what are you all up to now? I’ve put Mark of the Rani on

Tuchel has got this second half massively wrong #worldcup

What the frig is the point of Pickford just kicking the ball back to the Argentinian keeper on every goal kick? #worldcup

I’m delighted for everyone who has waited the whole tournament to do a ‘Gordon’s Alive’ joke #worldcup

That was a tackle and a half #worldcup

get THE FUCK in

This ref thought Pearl Harbour was above board #worldcup

Argentina are hacky gets #worldcup
