I've never tried to read HP Lovecraft...Brendoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10913031340103600964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-83307086920452958722016-01-18T17:03:58.267-04:002016-01-18T17:03:58.267-04:00I must admit I'm totally bent in that respect,...I must admit I'm totally bent in that respect, I'm always looking for a place to sit.<br /> The tardis console, for that reason leaves me exhausted! <br />I recall, was it McCoy or McGann (McGoohan?) who had a comfy chair in the console room?<br />Waris Hussein, first director of the show thinks Who has gotten altogether too smoochy and unDoctorlike in that respect. While I like smooching I prefer it to be a first person experience, so I tend to agree with him. While the characters can be attractive, actual romantic intercourse (har har, sorry, in the Victorian sense I mean) is where folks can get grossed out if they're otherwise inclined... <br />I agree about references back to Fatal Death, totally intentional.<br /><br />While we're on WHO subjects that make people feel uncomfy,(like hard backed chairs) I prefer alien stories, technology and history. <br />Spooks, gods and possessions weird me out sump'n wicked.<br />Brendoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10913031340103600964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-9229328391539006872016-01-18T07:50:06.176-04:002016-01-18T07:50:06.176-04:00Correct.

Rewatch The Curse Of Fatal Death -- they're talking about chairs on the Dalek ship ("I'll explain later") and of course the whole thing with the Master having breasts, the Doctor going from sexy (Atkinson, Grant) to old (Broadbent), and of course the sewers... clearly the first two episodes of season nine were meant as a sequel to that most canonical of stories.Eric TF Bathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877525364475334374noreply@blogger.com
