Ashes to Alaska

A HAROLD PINTER DOUBLE BILL: Ashes To Ashes / A Kind of Alaska The Crescent Theatre, Birmingham, Saturday 28th October 2023 Relieved to be able to make it to the final performances of this double bill, I settle into my seat.  The Ron Barber Studio has been rendered even more intimate, with seating raked high on three sides of the stage area.  It’s like an anatomist’s theatre.  The whiteness of…

Me, on a new date: Hey, have you ever thought about the fact that there are plenty of planets where "the Doctor" doesn't refer to the Time Lord carrying around the sonic screwdriver, but rather to the young women who swing through their lives and ask their names and demand answers and sacrifice themselves, to the young men who start off unsure and second-fiddle but bring a kindness, a loyalty, with them and end up finding their own voices and their own purpose? Do you ever think about the role that myth plays in Doctor Who, how so many companion exits and finales take on the role of storytelling, about how companions become gods and immortals and walk the entire dystopian earth and wait two thousand years and be the cause of every Cyberman's single tear and wrench the Doctor back into the universe and carry the story off of screen with them, that they birth myths in their wake, that Doctor Who finales so often leave science-fiction behind them and become mythology itself, when these humans insert themselves into the mythology of the Doctor only to usurp him, that they make themselves the Bad Wolf and Orpheus and the Woman Who Walked the Earth and the Doctor Donna and the Last Centurion and the Girl Who Saw the Stars and most of all, they become the Doctor themself, that the Doctor's story goes nowhere if Rose doesn't save him on Satellite Five or Amy doesn't pull him back into existence or Martha doesn't walk the entire hell-earth to restore him or Clara doesn't make him forget her or Jack doesn't sacrifice himself to stop the Daleks or Bill doesn't carry him away from the Cybermen or Donna doesn't stop him from drowning himself with the Racnoss or Yaz doesn't pilot the TARDIS or River Song sacrifices herself at the library or Sarah Jane and Mickey don't help restore the earth back to its place in the sky and that the Doctor is only a myth with so many stories to their name because their companions make it so-

My date, sliding the breadsticks out of their purse back onto the table, hopelessly intrigued: Go on...

"Omg, this companion hasn’t been on the show in years, move on."

Like the whole show isn’t about a sad little idiot who doesn’t know how to move on.

#THERE IS SO MUCH TO UNPACK IN THIS SCENE

happy 60th birthday doctor who!!

[fanonical]

favourite minor detail in doctor who: a companion's fashion getting steadily weirder as they get more used to living in space (see: rose tyler, sarah jane smith)

Been hoarding text posts for days- gonna micro dose them back out to y’all for your enjoyment

With you, did he do that thing where he'd explain something at like, ninety miles per hour, and you'd go, "what?" and he'd look at you like you'd just dribbled on your shirt? All the time! Does he still stroke bits of the TARDIS? Yeah! Yeah, he does. I'm like, "do you two want to be alone?"

People who say The Avengers: Infinity Wars/End Game was the most epic crossover ever attempted has clearly never watched Doctor Who: The Stolen Earth/Journey's End.
