I like to imagine a brief interaction in #DrWho -- The Doctor has encountered a relatively primitive society and wants to learn how much they know about science....
Doctor: Tell me, what do you know about the stars?
Local scholar: Ah, the stars in the sky are actually suns...
Doctor: Yes!
Local scholar: ... and daughters...
Doctor: No!
Just watched Dr. Who: Planet of Evil. It was really good. Great sets, FX and fantastic, over the top, acting. The plot was a little nebulous and what should been the most tense part was replaced by the line "I had a chat with it". All in all, solid fun.
So far, my rankings for Tom Baker are:
1. Ark in Space
2. Revenge of the Cybermen
3. Genesis of the Daleks
4. Planet of Evil
5. Terror of the Zygons
6. Sontaran Experiment
7. Robot
Scripting my podcast, I needed a short break. And made the mistake to read an article about the parallel reality on the other side of the pond. OMG. 
Only *one* short article and you're torn between accusing this #felon regime of massive abuse of a completely derailed designer drug or believing that aliens have taken over the White House and are secretly farting. Can someone pls call the Doctor!?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYX2VhXxEIc

Looks Like someone watched the latest #DrWho Episode 
Where are all the #DrWho #DoctorWho posts?
"Bigger on the inside..."
(It's #HootinTootinTuesday again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to #Mastodon.)
Elon Musk, AKA " Mr- Ket-A-mine", is rumored to looking for an exit out of politics.
Hoping this is more than a rumor, as we don't need some drug fueled swatzi dork running budget cutting rampages through our social security and student loan programs.

In our continuing journey through classic #DrWho we're part-way through Troughton's The Web of Fear and have just had our first introduction to Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart (colonel). Almost as exciting as the first introductions to the Daleks & the Cybermen!

I’m probably just developing a case of false memory as I feel almost certain that I did watch the episode where he said this. But there is no evidence I can find in the web and the blatant lies of Google Gemini make the search even more difficult. Who can help?

Nice piece about the new Doctor Who crew, minimal spoilers.
"It is a good sign, surely, that Doctor Who and his new time-travelling companion seem to get along. When we enter the room to interview Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu in New York, they are in fits of laughter. It is the back end of a conversation about their mothers washing dishes.
"And if that tells us next to nothing about the new season of Doctor Who, it does tell us that numbers one and two on the call sheet – still crying with laughter – have developed a rapport."

@Angelaswf @AngelaScholder @spatula they do include iPlayer from after the programme I believe. I agree that live viewing is not so relevant these days, but it’s still a really poor showing and even in terms of relevant ranking that is bad.
People have lost #DrWho. Tbh I’m not surprised, last season was miserable. This is much better so far but probably still not connecting.
Finally caught up with the new episode. 2 eps in and Belinda is shaping up to be one of my favourite companions. The banter between Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu works amazingly. 'Lux' was a little meta, bit weird, a bit out there, at points funny, also creepy, with a touch of heartbreak by the end. I really liked it, peak Doctor Who!
#DrWho I really enjoyed "S2" episode 2 :)
... different take on the fourth-wall-breaking that annoyed me in the previous season. Without being too spoilery on this front, as a sideline it did a very mild version of something that has birthed many of #DrWho 's best eps: took an utterly irrational fear & said 'but what if it _is_ true...?'...
#DrWho Season 2, ep. 2: Lux. I think I quite liked this one. It felt experimental and inventive. Well-paced, and with a genuine-feeling nod to social issues relevant to the setting rather than having them shoehorned in like last week. An interesting villain, well-suited to Alan Cummings & a ...
Came here to say:
Last night’s episode of #DrWho was incredible.
And it was!!
When I got here I read @katiefenn.bsky.social call to action.
This is more important than #DrWho
