Amazing! Thanks for your amazing work.

What marvellous news to wake up to! I love Classic Doctor Who with all my hearts and more Daleks is always a welcome thing.

I loved Finders Keepers in part because of Stilgoe being Stilgoe.

Oh I agree with you now, but that Visitation cover has a special place in my Time Tot hearts. I remember when and where I was when first seeing it (thanks Santa!)

At the time, I cannot tell you how excited I was for a photonovel cover. When Grange Hill, Porridge, Break In The Sun and similar were getting books with photo covers, it felt like Doctor Who was being taken seriously.
But ... the only ones that really worked were Four To Doomsday and Time-Flight.

I was very excited at the launch, but it underwent a number of makeovers in its time. It wasn't until Rupert Murdoch bought it and installed former Mirror editor Richard Stott that it found its feet. It was an excellent tabloid when it closed.

With his past five pm, there is also a complimentary Alcohol service that will be coming through this up. If you're travelling into Santa Claus, you can do apologise for sure. Journey. Great lesson.

If you ever wonder why I'm so passionate about #Auracast in trains, this is it.

Today is #WorldHearingDay and the theme of From Communities to Classroom resonates with us.
#Auracast systems in schools and lecture halls can make a world of difference to learning: clear sound, speech-to-text, and bring your own device.

He was the first European to be crowned by Elvis Presley Enterprises as the ‘Worldwide Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist’ in Memphis.

He's Reading's favourite Elvis, too.

He's Ben Portsmouth. And he's back at the Hexagon on Thursday.

Come to a League 2 or non-league game. Its a different story.

Thrilled to see this - comics are a really important part of a newspaper and I don't understand why they have been dropped in recent years.

So famous he even has a stand named after him

I absolutely loathed everything about this episode on first broadcast, including picking up random people for the fun of it, riding on a Tricerotops, the fake ocean area to The Doctor's treatment of Solomon, it feels like a parody of what Dr Who should be.

Typography for TV listings is an art. TV Times lost it when they introduced the six-column layout with the red border to the pages.
I was really getting into typography when they did the 92 revamp and got very excited, only to be dismayed with the 97 version.

I last watched it on my last day of primary school, back in 1987. I ... didn't enjoy it.

This week, I have been pondering what came first: Castrovalva, or Adam and the Ants #DoctorWho

I think people don't quite realise what makes a newspaper a newspaper. It ain't all news. The features, cartoons, opinion columns and information like TV listings and football tables are all essentials. You may not notice them if they're there, but you do if they're missing.

There was a 1970s cartoon which was... well, a 1970s cartoon.

I remember being so disappointed with TV Times multi-channel layout. It was dull and restrictive.
The revamp they did a year or so later was so much better. Then they ruined it with a bizarre decision to put BBC1 and ITV on the same page, single column listings. Still can't believe they OKed it.

One of the few stories I hesitate to rewatch. I didn't like it on first broadcast, nothing has changed in the intervening 40 years.

That all feels like a ransom note.

- When #DoctorWho lands in an adventure, no one has a Scooby Doo who he is, what a Time Lord is, what a Tardis is, or there is life beyond that Galaxy
- Theme tune must not be played by an orchestra
- No snogging. Ever. River Song to be skirted over.
- A tone between S13 and S17, not a comedy show
