Three days into November, and I’ve not had one minute to work on this year’s NaNoWriMo. Think I’m on the back foot… I blame the running.

Modern superheroes are all fast-paced action movies, which is great but rarely gives you time to think or breathe. In 1978, they didn’t have much in the way of special effects and so had no choice but to take it steady. The contrast works to its benefit. The plot is […]

Most runners will tell you that it’s very difficult to find healthy nutrition that will both help your running and taste nice. With their Pro Oat Cookie, I feel that PhD Nutrition have done just that. The Black Forrest flavour of this cookie tastes really nice. At 315 calories, it’s […]

Karrimor Mens Raid 5 Adjustable Zip Pocket Breathable Mesh Bag Having tried many of these bottle belts over the years, I’m fast coming to the conclusion that they’re a “holy grail” of runners accessories. None of them adequately serve the purpose we want them for. As I’m about to start […]

Previously: The Enemy of the World, episode 1… The Doctor’s rushed ruse proves to be effective, and he agrees to discover more about Salamander. He wants to prove to himself that Salamander is as bad as he’s painted before he’s ready to take any provocative action. Astrid already has a […]

Previously: The Ice Warriors, episode 4-6… The first episode of The Enemy of the World begins stylistically different to most other classic Doctor Who adventures, in that most of the episode is an action piece filmed on location.

Previously: The Ice Warriors, episode 1-3… Using the ice set to its best advantage, we get a fantastic sequence of Victoria running from an Ice Warrior and then inadvertently using her, by now infamous, scream to trap it. The Doctor figures out a means of defence against the Ice Warriors, […]
182-184. The Ice Warriors, episode 4-6
Doctor Who, season 5 continues … The Ice Warriors begins in a fashion that would become typical of Earth-based futuristic adventures. The Earth is under threat of some catastrophe (in this instance, a man made disaster in the waiting threatens the ice sheets melting). The adventure opens in the control […]
179-181. The Ice Warriors, episode 1-3
Doctor Who, season 5 continues … The Abominable Snowmen is a 6-part early Doctor Who adventure that is mostly missing from the BBC archives. In order to watch the serial, I’ve found the “Loose Cannon” reconstructed version of the missing episodes (all episodes except episode 2). This version employs the […]
