My new discovery

I am planning (hoping) to post here on a daily basis so to keep that up I thought I would share this:

These were discovered in a second-hand shop today and represent a good day!

I don't know if I will ever collect every DVD but it's always good to increase the collection!

Clara Oswald

This was the news I was hoping for!

Having enjoyed another excellent episode I faced the anxious wait to find out whether Jenna would still be with us next year.

It was a very clever trick that Moffat played and had me ready to say goodbye! 

I can now look forward to another series with Jenna alongside Peter. 

Merry Christmas!!!

Treasure Find

I couldn't believe my luck when out shopping the other week I came across these little treasures:

I can't bring myself to actually open the boxes, let alone actually drink from them! Can't believe the total cost was under £20 too!

Only 3 days to go!

Withdrawal Symptoms

Why do I have to be so busy? Why do I not have the time to sit down and review Capaldi and the impact of Series 8?

I guess it will have to wait. I guess I will have to see out the Christmas special before I get the chance to fully absorb myself in what Series 8 meant to me and where I would like to see the next series going.

So for now I must get back to finishing my work and maybe sneak a little peek on the forums at Gallifrey Base. Then before I know it we will be there and Nick Frost will bound on to the screen and we will enjoy another festive dose of Who :)

Branching Out

I have a new branch to my online adventure!

I have joined the craze that is Instagram! I have very little idea what I'm doing but I have at least got started.  If you want to join me then you can by following @whovian_with_a_lightsaber

As you will notice from my name It is reflecting both Doctor Who and Star Wars

I just need a decent profile picture now :)

Learning New Skills

I am hoping that this works now.

This is my first proper attempt at video editing. All I have done is removed the original audio and replaced it with a music track.  I then replaced part of the original audio and was fairly happy with the outcome:

I hope that you enjoy :)

A Whovian without Who

The title of this post suggests a situation that we all fear.
A time when Doctor Who is no more...and we all walk around wondering how to survive.

Alternatively it could be a strange parallel existence where Doctor Who never existed and yet we all know there's something we're missing...something in the corner of our eyes...

However, I am simply referring to that annual gap between the end of a series and the Christmas Special!
Yes, there is a large volume of classic Who for me to catch up on but this year we have a much shorter gap than previous years I'm struggling to establish a viewing routine.
I have watched a few Tom Baker stories and the usual batch of Smith/Tennant re-runs but I am finding it particularly tricky this year as I'm not sure of a few things regarding the future.

The first is my reaction to Series 8 and Capaldi himself.  I did find myself watching each episode a number of times and found that I was enjoying how things were moving.  I am planning a pre-christmas Series 8 marathon where I will look to see how I feel about Series 8 as a whole.

The second is the Jenna Coleman issue. Is she staying? Is she going?
I have enjoyed watching Clara, especially with the 11th Doctor and feel that if the Doctor was to re-discover Gallifrey then Clara would be the ideal companion for that journey.

So, what does a Whovian do without Who?
He simply doesn't.
It's impossible.
It does not compute.

I cannot wait for the 25th, and hopefully by that point I will have a resolution to both of my points.
Until then, Merry Christmas!
