My favourite part of following you is the extremely British references I would never get, but I still laugh at the ridiculous ones lmao

Yes folks!

And here is Peter Sellers’ copy of the script, annotated in his own hand, safely preserved in the @goonshow.org archive @uoyborthwick.bsky.social!

THE DOCTOR:
You cowardly swine! You
slimy putrescent maggot..
His sudden rage is cathartically beneficial.
No longer cringing,
he
glares round in angry defiance.
But the only response to his outburst is a distant snigger of laughter.
The DOCTOR concentrates his mental power.
THE DOCTOR: I deny this reality...
The reality is a computation matrix...
the landscape

A couple of things: some ripe Robert Holmes dialogue from The Deadly Assassin episode 3, sadly cut.

An afternoon spent showing student Doctor Who societies the Terrance Dicks archive is never time wasted. They pay me for this! Shhhh, don’t tell!

Of course he definitely wasn’t pissed, the police did a breathalyser, and furthermore it’s purely coincidental that he did a police benefit gig not long afterwards.

Also, you will note that no plaque exists commemorating the location where Russell Tovey fucked a fish. #StillBitterAboutThoseHoursIWillNeverGetBack

Nobody expected this to last SEVENTEEN YEARS so fair enough, really. Although part of me did imagine that it might still be around in the far distant future, the subject of myths and speculation as to who or what was being commemorated here. This IS a place of honour, after all.

Amused at Trump saying β€˜We’re not dealing with Winston Churchill’ about Starmer. No, if you were dealing with Winston Churchill we’d have already have been fighting a war for two years before your lot even turned up, you scabby orange dough ball

Monday does the heavy lifting. There has to be a Monday to start the week. It takes this on with an honest gruffness. It knows its shit but gets on with it. I respect that.

Tuesday however is a weak skinny little bully hiding behind Monday who comes along and kicks your shins for no reason.

Monday would be tolerable if we just had Monday. But no. We have to have Monday Eve and Boxing Monday either side.
