Let’s Get This Show (Back) On The Road
Lord it’s been a while. Sorry.
No particularly good excuses either I’m afraid, just a lot of stuff going on to distract me and not a lot of it the kind of thing I can talk about here. But enough’s enough. Back to nonsense and flim-flammery (another good name for a blog).
Last time I wrote I was on a plane, and my projected several postings were reduced to two upon the realisation that tiredness was making me increasingly incoherent. I left off in the middle of a positive paean to Turn Left, episode 4.11 of new Doctor Who, which I’d just watched for the umpteenth time. It was almost insanely glowing (blame the tiredness), but I’ve watched it again on a flight since and oh my god it’s brilliant. Possibly the best single Doctor Who story ever, and a triumphant kick in the balls to all those naysayers who kicked off about Catherine Tate and Donna both.
One of these days I’ll properly analyse what makes it so good, but in the meantime - it just is, all right?
More stuff soon (promise).
