Yesterday's impromptu political/current events post ate into my blogging time so today's post is a link to a couple of Doctor Who themed videos on You Tube.
First up is The Whoniverse Show and an interview with Doctor Who composer supreme Murray Gold.
I love the part where Murray Gold discusses the "Eurovison" episode ("The Interstellar Song Contest") and his high expectations about the haunting ballad sung by Cora Saint Bavier about how her planet Hellia was devastated by the Corporation.
And then that damn Dugga Doo song stole all the attention.
Next up is a video for something I normally avoid. A fan putting up a list of things about Doctor Who that I normally find irritating and poorly thought out.
But I opted to watch this one about every Doctor's DEFINITIVE episode and while some of the choices surprised me, I can't say I disagree with the assessments made here.
One last note before we wrap up today's post.
Apparently the word is that Russell T Davies has written at least 3 versions of the script for the 2026 Doctor Who Christmas special.
It seems that other than the BBC asserting that Doctor Who does have a future, the exact details of that future are still up in the air, leaving RTD scrambling to be ready for any number of contingencies.
It goes without saying the Christmas special has not yet gone into production. I'm starting to worry that the project holiday episode may not be a sure thing.
So we're in the standard position Whovians are used to being: in the dark and uncertain.
Let's try to keep hope alive.
It's what the Doctor would want.
