After several days of horror stories every time I open my news feed, it was very nice to open it this afternoon and find this waiting for me. Crank it up!!!

And straight from the Children in Need broadcast today...an appetizer for next week. A nod to the last Doctor, another nod to one of the best stories from the Gen 1 era, the return of an old friend, and an explanation for those toilet plungers the Daleks are always brandishing!

Today is the day, Whovians! If I'm doing my time zone calculations correctly, the TARDIS will be swinging by at about 1:30 EST! And yes, I've got my suitcase packed!!!

Well, the anniversary specials have concluded, and our new Doctor took off in the TARDIS, bound for Christmas.
Since some might be wanting to watch the specials in their own time, I won't reveal any spoiler-esque plot points. Suffice to say that Whovians in general and David Tennant fans in particular are celebrating for many reasons. To say the future is exciting is an understatement!
I'll just leave a little Christmas present under the TARDIS tree. As we suspected Neal Patrick Harris appeared as the Toymaker (they seem to have dropped "Celestial"). He absolutely made the role his own, and here's a sample of what he unleashed on the Doctor, Donna, his returned companion Mel and his other UNIT friends. Get your dancing shoes on!

I haven't forgotten that I promised you guys a nutty theory! Just been busy what with Christmas, and a running battle with the cats over where the ornaments on the tree should be.
We've now had our first full episode with Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, and Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday, his companion. Ruby is going to turn out to be a great companion, as well as a very intriguing character. Her family dynamic is very well set up, and plays an important role in the special.
Speaking of intriguing characters, all the talk this week is about Mrs. Flood, the Sundays' enigmatic neighbor who seems to know something of the Doctor and the TARDIS. She even breaks the fourth wall at the end of the episode and asks the viewer "Never seen a TARDIS before?" There's a lot of speculation about who she is, including:
- River Song
- Susan Foreman
- Romana
- The Rani
- Rose Tyler
Between Mrs. Flood and Ruby's cloaked mother, there's plenty of speculation to go around. When time permits I'll be back with my nutty theory, along with a full version of "The Goblin Song" which the Doctor and Ruby cheerfully joined in on. It's epic!

Well, it's been quiet in this thread...now that all the anniversary excitement is over, I think we all needed a break.
Well, break's nearly over...
A few of us have been wondering when they'd get around to announcing air dates for the new series...we knew it would be in May, but we didn't know when. This is being dropped simultaneously all over the world, probably to prevent spoilers. You know you don't have to worry about spoilers with me...River Song would come after me if I violated the "no spoilers" rule!

Here's another Trailer, Tanith Yes! Space Babies!!!
It's got me wondering if they're trying to establish "Gimme the lovin'" as Ncuti's signature line. They've used that in both trailers. And I absolutely cannot wait to see what sort of villain Jinx Monsoon is playing.

LOL, yeah...some people get "turned on" by the oddest things.
Unrelated to Who or the movie we watched today--but do you know who can match Mr. Tennant's wit? Mrs. Tennant! This is from her Instagram a few days ago:

Oooo 😳 The SK story “Mile 81”, is rapidly becoming one of my best favorites.❤️
I’ve just now discovered a very cool ‘Dr. Who’ reference, that simply screams,
”Name that epicsode!” 😄
Have you read this story Tanith ? It’s in “The Bazaar Of Bad Dreams”. 😊
