Sam Clark releases new video for “Out Of Reach”!
Australian pop singer/actor Sam Clark has released the new video for his latest single Out Of Reach! The track was produced by fellow Australian, Andrew Furze (ARIA awards, The X Factor) and his team at TAG Music, and was co-written with Grammy award-winner Bill Grainer (Jennifer Hudson, Kimberley Locke). Sam says he felt an instant connection with Grainer, and that “despite us being from opposite sides of the globe, we immediately hit it off and knew we were onto something special. We’ve been writing as a team between L.A. and New York under the moniker ‘The Long Losts’ ever since”.
This Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter from Adelaide has already achieved top 40 ARIA chart success and #1 spot on the ARIA physical singles sales chart with his debut release Broken. He also recently starred in the five-time Emmy winning Grease Live! He shot to fame as an actor on the hit Australian TV program Neighbours, where he was credited in over 850 episodes of the internationally successful show. Sam went on to star in his first feature film Mental (Toni Collette, Liev Schreiber) for which he also wrote and performed several original songs, and was nominated as Cleo Bachelor Of The Year (Cleo Magazine) and Most Popular New Male Talent at the TV Week Logie Awards (Australian Emmy).
Out Of Reach is a pop anthem that pairs a melodic arrangement, with Sam’s honest and meaningful lyrics. It’s a love song to authentic romance that’s both relatable and heartfelt. “I want my songs to be catchy without compromising their lyrical content. If I had to choose a single theme that runs through all my songs, it would be love”, he says. The new video follows Sam on his adventure discovering multiple forms of love.
Renowned for his live looping skills, Sam is a seasoned performer having played hundreds of unique and engaging, one-man shows around the world. Connect with him below to see him live all around Los Angeles and download the new song on iTunes today!

The Eve of the Thirteenth
Recently I watched "An Unearthly Child," in preparation to write the first official article of Time and Time Again (TATA? Ok, I love that). But then it hit me that it’s a rather auspicious time to talk about the First Doctor’s first episode. With this being the eve of the first female Doctor’s first episode, it seems so appropriate. So I’m going to wait until after "The Woman Who Fell to Earth," drops. See what I did there?
I know this blog is meant to be about revisiting episodes, but the timing is just too good. Besides, it is my blog. However, this being said, I suppose I should share my hopes and expectations for series eleven.
Jodie Whittaker as "The Doctor"
Not since maybe Eccleston has anyone had as difficult a regeneration to overcome. While every actor new to the role feels a pressure to keep the show going, I’d say some feel it harder than others. Davison had to follow up an endearing seven-year run from Tom Baker. McGann had the pressure of trying to reestablish the show, as did Eccleston. Many people even said nobody could replace David Tennant. But the one I am reminded of the most is Patrick Troughton. Troughton was really one of those "make it or break it," Doctors. The concept of regeneration was far from established lore, it was rather a gamble.
Jodie Whittaker has a very similar weight on her shoulders. It’s another one of those "make it or break it" moments. The beauty is, I think she knows it. Everyone involved knows it. However, as much as I’ve emphasised on the pressures involved, I’m confident they chose the right woman for the job. She looks like a children’s show presenter in her costume, which is wonderfully coupled with her mad energy. For me, it’s never been about "We need a woman in the TARDIS," we need the right person in the role, and she’s perfect.
Doctor Who is the ideal show to change the gender or race of its lead. On a science fiction level, it makes total sense that the Doctor is able to change these things with ease. It’s almost laughable that it’s taken this long. It’s almost poetic. The Doctor- a man who has experienced thousands of years worth of exploration and change, still has something new to experience- womanhood. It is, as they say, about time.
The Companions
Honestly, I’m not that fussed over these companions. That’s not to say I’m disinterested or even upset with their casting. I feel confident they’ll all shine in their own ways, and live up to the show’s standard of companions. I think it’s cool that the Doctor’s friends this time around, are rather diverse. As a fan of older companions such as Wilf, or Evelyn Smythe, I am rather looking forward to Bradley Walsh as "Graham." Tamsin and Ryan both seem like they’re going to have some cute banter between the two of them. It seems pretty solid.
Many may say "That’s a pretty crowded TARDIS," but I like the bigger TARDIS crews at times, as they can be a nice way to add a new dynamic. The thing that would have actually excited me would have been a companion from the future, or past. Or even an alien companion. Not since Captain Jack, have we had anyone riding in the TARDIS who wasn’t from the present-day UK. We got teased with it in "Asylum of the Daleks," with Oswin, and again in "The Snowmen," but then we ended up with modern day Clara Oswald. I had even hoped for Bill to be from the 80’s or 90’s. Where are the highlander companions? The Keepers of Traken? I guess Nardol sort of counts, but come on.
Chris Chibnall
Mr Chibnall is probably my biggest worry for the series. As a writer, I’ve never been all that big a fan of his episodes. "The Power of Three," was one I found particularly dreadful. When the Doctor saved the day by pointing his sonic at a screen, I felt cheated. The little cubes amounted to nothing, really. It’s not that he’s a bad writer, he’s just a bit dull. He managed to make “Dinosaurs on a Spaceship,” less exciting than the name implies. That’s probably impressive on some planets.
Overall, I think he’ll do fine, I’m just worried he’ll be a bit boring. I hadn’t worried much until he said that no old baddies would return in series eleven. Which, is fine I guess, but why not? While the Daleks and Cybermen can be really overdone (especially the Cybermen as of late), there is a wealth of villains to draw from the Doctor’s rogues' gallery. One group I’d like to see her face off against are the Axons. Whittaker’s "Godspell" evoking threads call for retro baddies!
So long as Chibnall doesn’t get too dark like he did with Torchwood (which literally felt like a little boy excited over getting to say the F-word), I’d say he’ll do fine. Parts of Torchwood were a bit "lizard brain," to its credit. Doctor Who should always have a touch of the surreal. The first episode had it. An indestructible police box, bigger on the inside, that travels anywhere in time and space? It seems normal now, but even to this day, there’s nothing quite like it. Keep the energy up, and keep it weird, you’ll do fine, Chris. It’s not like you’ll get the series cancelled again.
The New Writing Staff and Production Crew
I’ll be honest, I don’t know much anything about the writers. I’ve looked them up and read about some of their stuff, but that’s about as far as I’ve taken it. I will say however, it’s nice to see so much new blood. Men, women, people of colour, many perspectives. Doctor Who thrives on being shaken up. I’m all for it.
As for the new production crew, it’s even more of the same- happy to see someone new. I know a few people were growing tired of the whimsical look of much of the Moffat era. And at times, I kind of miss the tacky trash TV look of the RTD era. From what I’ve seen of the series 11 trailer, we’re in for something a little more grounded in reality. The cinematography looks rather simple, the sets seem plausible, if not a little dull. I’m hoping they’re hiding the big knock you on your ass sets and cinematography for the actual episodes. I would not be averse to having a show that looked as colourful as the promotional artwork we’ve been seeing. It’s gorgeous. A feast for the eyes. If the leaked TARDIS console pictures are anything to go off, I’d say they’ve kept some rather exciting secrets from us.
Segun Akinola replacing Murray Gold
Music is such an important part of Doctor Who. The theme song is both haunting and exciting: portentous of the tale about to unfold. The Radiophonic Workshop, with geniuses of sound like Delia Derbyshire and Ron Grainer, pushed not only the atmosphere of the show to greater heights but music as well. In the same vein as musique concrète, they were pioneers of electronic sound.
Upon the reveal of Akinola’s appointment as music director, I promptly sought out his SoundCloud and spent an entire afternoon listening to his stuff. I was heartened to hear he was both melodic and ambient at different times. His music is minimalist, and percussive as well. One of my biggest criticisms of Murray Gold was that he was too safe a choice. For me, he never really felt strange enough for Doctor Who.
Perhaps I am an odd duck, but I miss the days of the Third Doctor driving his bizarre car to a soundtrack of muddy synthesisers that sounded as if they wanted to murder you. The closest Gold ever came to that level of greatness was the aforementioned "Asylum of the Daleks." The music matched the tone of the episode exquisitely. I had hoped to hear more of that experimentation from him, but he never really did. Akinola seems the kind of guy who just might take us to strange places.
As we all know though, the true test will be in his imagining of the theme tune. I was never a huge fan of the Capaldi era theme. It didn’t really, slap as they say. From what I’ve heard of Akinola’s work, I’m very curious how he’s going to approach it.
Well, friends, that’s it for now. We’ve got nowt to do at this moment but wait. The next time you hear from me, it will have already happened! I hope you’re just as excited as I am! Doctor Who series 11 premieres tomorrow, the 7th of October at 6:45 pm on BBC 1!

Compulsive listening tag game
I was tagged by @universe-on-her-shoulders
List 10 songs that you currently cannot stop listening to and then tag (10) people
(These are in no particular order; most links go to YouTube so you can check them out. Links work in North America but may not elsewhere.)
1. The Hockey Song - George Canyon (cover of the Stompin’ Tom Connors classic, which is Canada’s unofficial second national anthem)
2. Tutto a mia madre - Adriano Celentano (Italian-language cover of the Bill Haley song “Burn That Candle”)
3. Anarchy in Bedrock - Green Jelly (I didn’t mean for this one to get stuck in my head but this week’s episode of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow was set in 1970s London at the height of punk rock culture and Anarchy in the UK was featured. And the way my brain works I ended up having Green Jelly’s Flintstones tribute stuck in there instead...)
4. People Like Us - John Goodman with Talking Heads (from one of my favourite musicals of all time, the David Byrne-directed True Stories from 1986. John Goodman, pre-Roseanne, pre-Blue Brothers, and in one of his first starring roles, sang this great song which, sadly, wasn’t released at the time because a version with Byrne on vocals was released instead. It eventually got a release about 10 years ago. I really hope True Stories gets a blu-ray someday.)
5. Tomorrow is a Long Time - Elvis Presley (the best recording Elvis ever made was this obscure 1966 cover of Odetta Holmes’ adaptation of the Bob Dylan song. The record company had no idea what to do with a 5-minute-long folk song by the guy who was currently recording stuff like Yoga is as Yoga Does, so it was buried in the back of the soundtrack album for Spinout. His fabled comeback would have happened two years earlier if this tune had been released properly.)
6. kapētipisk ka-nah-nīmihitonaw - Dolores Sand (I discovered this wonderful track a couple years ago. Recorded in Saskatchewan, this is a translation of my all-time favourite song into Plains Cree as part of a project to promote the preservation of the Cree language. The song: Bill Haley’s Rock Around the Clock! Website link is to the Cree Literacy Project where you can listen to the track online and follow along with the lyrics.)
7. The Last Saskatchewan Pirate - Arrogant Worms (Forget Pirates of the Caribbean. Here in Canada we have Pirates of the Saskatchewan! There are a zillion covers on YouTube, but the Arrogrant Worms originated it. )
8. Dig That Rock ‘n’ Roll - The Stargazers (One of my favourite original tracks from this British rockabilly group established in the 1980s that was very much cast in the Comets mould. I’ve known the piano player on this for close to 30 years.)
9. Monster Mash - Bobby Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers. (It was Halloween not long ago and I found this TV performance by Bobby from American Bandstand. Trivia: about 25 years later a movie was made based upon this song, and Pickett - who was also an actor - starred as the mad scientist. Of course he got to perform his song in that, too. The audio on the video link is the original record but he was just lip-syncing on the TV show anyway.)
10. The Age of Elegance - Ron Grainer. This is the demo version of Grainer’s famous theme to The Prisoner. It was later redone with added orchestra to make it more bombastic for the TV show, but I’ve always loved this version which was first released in the late 1980s.
Tagging anyone who wants to do this. (You don’t need to go into detail like I did. I just felt verbose today).

Timestamp #160: Doctor Who (The Movie)
New Post has been published on https://esopodcast.com/timestamp-160-doctor-who-the-movie/
Timestamp #160: Doctor Who (The Movie)
Doctor Who: The Movie (1996)
It’s a major turning point: The gateway between the classic era and the modern. But first, the Doctor must face Y2K.
The Master finally came to trial for his litany of crimes on the planet Skaro as part of a treaty between the Daleks and the Time Lords. Over cat eyes, we learn that the Master’s final request was for the Doctor to carry his remains back to Gallifrey for final disposition. The Doctor places the Master’s urn in a lockbox and secures it with a new sonic screwdriver before settling in with “In a Dream” on the gramaphone, The Time Machine in his hands, and a bowl of jelly babies. The control room is massive and gorgeous, and reflects the Seventh Doctor’s twilight years to a tee.
The Master breaks out of the urn and the lockbox, moving as a shadowy snake form to the TARDIS console and shorting it out, forcing the Doctor to make an emergency landing on Earth, San Francisco, New Years Eve, 1999. The TARDIS materializes in the middle of a gang fight, saving a young survivor in the process. Unfortunately, the Doctor (who didn’t use the scanners, I guess) steps into the fight and is shot. As Chang Lee calls for an ambulance, the Master escapes through the TARDIS lock.
The Doctor (on the record as John Smith) is rushed to the hospital, but modern medicine fails him. The x-ray accurately reflects his two hearts, and the bullet wounds are not particularly life-threatening (one in the shoulder, two in the leg), but the heart readings require a cardiac specialist. Enter: Grace Holloway.
The Doctor wakes up on the operating table to the sound of Madame Butterfly, pleading with Grace to stop the surgery and get him a beryllium atomic clock. The surgical team ups the anesthetic and proceeds, but human surgery on Time Lord physiology proves fatal. The Seventh Doctor dies on the operating table. Grace reviews the x-rays before informing Lee of the bad news, and Lee runs off with the Doctor’s personal effects.
We are treated to a double Time Lord resurrection: On the other side of the city, the Master has hitched a ride home with an ambulance driver named Bruce. As he snores away, preventing his wife from sleeping, Bruce is taken over and killed by the Master. Bruce’s wife is happy for the silence. At the hospital, the Doctor’s body is loaded into the morgue and regenerates in parallel with the 1931 version of Frankenstein. The Doctor bangs at the door and breaks out of the freezer, scaring the on-duty attendant. The Eighth Doctor finds a mirror (or thirteen… see what they did there?) in a broken room (seriously, what?) while humming Madame Butterfly. In shock, he screams and questions who he is.
As morning dawns, we find Grace Holloway in her office, the Doctor rifling through lockers for clothing (and discarding a replica of the Fourth Doctor’s scarf), and Lee trying to figure out what a sonic screwdriver does (as well as examining a yo-yo, the Doctor’s pocketwatch, and the TARDIS key). The Doctor finds a Wild Bill Hickok costume (intended for the New Years Eve costume party), discarding the gun belt and hat in the process. Meanwhile, the Master awakens (with glowing green eyes) and kills Bruce’s wife.
Pete, the morgue attendant, shows Grace what happened the night before. She walks right by the Doctor, who is still suffering from the effects of his regeneration, before meeting with the hospital administrator. The administrator tries to cover up the events of the botched surgery, and she quits her job as a result. As she’s leaving, the Doctor joins her in the elevator and follows her to her car. He begs her for help, pulling the abandoned cardiac probe from his chest as Grace drives him away.
The Master arrives at the hospital and demands to see the Doctor’s body, but finds out that the corpse is missing and that Lee has the Doctor’s possessions. Meanwhile, Grace and the Doctor arrive at her home to find that her boyfriend has left her (and taken her furniture). She examines the Doctor and his heartbeats as his memory fades back in. Grace is upset and confused by the whole affair, but the Doctor comforts her in his awkward way.
Lee finds his way to the TARDIS and steps inside, having one of the most amazing “bigger on the inside” moments. Unfortunately, he also finds the Master, who somehow entered before without the TARDIS key. The Master enthralls Lee and takes the Doctor’s things before demanding that Lee help him find the Time Lord. The Master tells Lee a false tale of how the Doctor stole his regenerations, offering the human gold dust and a tour of the TARDIS, including the Cloister Room. In the depths of the Cloister Room is the Eye of Harmony, the heart of the TARDIS, and Lee is able to open it with a little coercion. The Eye shows the Master and Lee the Doctor’s Seventh and Eighth incarnations, and the image of a human retina leads the Master to believe that the new Doctor is half-human.
That’s an important note to make: The Master makes the assumption that the Doctor is somehow half-human. While the Master – who has known the Doctor for a really, really long time – should presumably know better, the Doctor’s lineage is not a statement of fact. It is a wild assumption.
The Doctor finishes getting dressed (and finally removing his toe tag) as Grace examines his blood. They take a walk to clear their minds, jogging the Doctor’s memories of his own childhood. The joy of this incarnation is amazing. As the Eye of Harmony is opened, he remembers that he is the Doctor and kisses Grace, making this the first romantic moment for the Doctor in the franchise.
I’m okay with that. New face, new body, new Doctor.
With the Eye of Harmony open, the Doctor and the Master can share vision through the Eye. The Doctor closes his eyes and gives Grace the download on who he is. Lee also hears this, chipping away at the Master’s thrall. Grace runs away in shock and locks the Doctor out of her house. Despite the Doctor’s protests, Grace calls for an ambulance, but the Doctor shows her that the Eye of Harmony is tearing the planet apart by walking through a window without breaking it. The Master and Lee oblige her request by hijacking an ambulance and taking it to meet the doctor (and the Doctor).
The Doctor watches the news while they wait for the ambulance, learning that a local institute is unveiling a beryllium atomic clock, which is exactly what he needs to close the Eye. The doorbell rings, and it’s the Master calling. Grace has no idea, but the Doctor obviously recognizes the Master, and nevertheless, they all pile into the ambulance and hit the road. Eventually, the Doctor unmasks the Master and runs with Grace. They hijack a police motorcycle with jelly babies and race for the institute with the Master in pursuit.
Notably, the Doctor does use a gun once again, but it’s a distraction instead of a threat.
Lee knows a shortcut – of course he does – so they beat the Doctor and the doctor to the clock. They proceed inside and look for a way to the clock, passing the Doctor off as “Dr. Bowman” and meeting Professor Wagg, the inventor of the device. In the meantime, the Doctor explains more about himself, and distracts the professor with a joke about being half-human while swiping his badge. They take a piece of the clock, distract a guard with a jelly baby, and spot the Master before running. They race to the roof (understandably, the Doctor is afraid of heights) and use a fire hose to drop to the street before heading to the TARDIS.
They use a spare key to open the TARDIS, have a humorous moment with a police officer driving in and out of the time capsule, and go inside to install the clock component in the console. Unfortunately, the Eye has been open too long and the cosmos are in danger. The TARDIS also has no power. They attempt to jump-start the TARDIS, but Grace is enthralled by the Master as he arrives. She knocks the Doctor out and together, she and Lee take him to the Eye. The Master supervises as Grace places a device on the Doctor’s head to prop his eyes open. The Doctor pleads with Lee, and Lee refuses to open the Eye when the Doctor points out the Master’s lies. The Master kills Lee by snapping his neck, then enthralls Grace into opening the Eye.
Apparently, only a human’s eyes can open the Eye. Which is weird, but kind of plays into a theory of mine… more on that later.
The Eye’s light is focused on two points, designed in this case to channel the Doctor’s regenerative energy into the Master and extend the villain’s lifespan. The light of the Eye breaks Grace’s trance, and she runs to the console to reroute the power. At the very last second, Grace jump-starts the TARDIS and they travel into a temporal orbit. She releases the Doctor, but the Master throws her off the balcony and kills her. The two Time Lords fight over the eye, but the Doctor is triumphant and the Master falls into the Eye. The Doctor tries to rescue him, but the Master refuses and is (apparently) killed.
The Doctor places Lee and Grace on a balcony in the Cloister Room, and the energy of the Eye infuses with them, bringing them back to life courtesy of the TARDIS and its sentimentality. The Doctor shows them Gallifrey from a distance before returning midnight on January 1, 2000. Lee departs with the gold dust and a little advice after returning the Doctor’s stuff, and the Doctor offers Grace the opportunity to travel with him. Grace declines, and the Doctor departs for a new adventure.
This presentation is deeply flawed, but it does have a lot of things working for it. I love the theme music (even if they don’t credit Ron Grainer or Delia Derbyshire) and I do love the humor and Doctor/Grace banter. On the other hand, it is swimming in the cheesiness that defined televised American science fiction in the 1990s, and a lot of those elements fall flat in the spirit of Doctor Who. I mean, can we get that hospital a little more funding for the entire floor full of broken junk?
The story also has a fixation on people stealing people’s stuff. Was there a major trend of kleptomania in the mid-90s?
Paul McGann is simply a joy to watch, and his energy and joy shines in this story. It’s also interesting to watch the “half-human” controversy play out: The Master takes it seriously based on scant evidence, but the Doctor plays it as a joke. I have often wondered if Gallifreyans are some sort of evolved human being – it’s definitely possible given that the default appearance is always human, most medical exams show only the two hearts as a physical difference, and that whole Eye of Harmony key thing – but I don’t think that the Doctor is any more human than that. The evidence just doesn’t support it.
All in all, this story would fall into the average range, which is a shame since Paul McGann deserved so much better. Of course, this was also a regeneration story, so it gets a little boost per the rules of the Timestamps Project.
Rating: 4/5 – “Would you care for a jelly baby?”

Euro 2020 – England Captain calls to check in on National debutant goalscorer Colin Grainer
With almost 60 years between their respective goalscoring England debuts at Wembley, it’s fair to say captain for Euro 2020 squad Harry Kane and Colin Grainger have something in common. Euro 2020 fans can book England Vs Czech Republic Tickets on our website on exclusively discounted prices.
Former Sheffield United, Sunderland and Leeds United player Grainger made his Three Lions bow back in May 1956 in a game against Brazil, when he opened the scoring with his first touch of the game after just four minutes before notching a second goal in a 4-2 win.
And current Three Lions captain Kane, who scored his first senior goal just 79 seconds after coming on as a sub against Lithuania in 2015, surprised Grainger with a video call this week to check in on the 86 year old at his home just outside Huddersfield.
The pair then went on to share tales of their debut memories with Grainger admitting: "I was very lucky, but I do remember the goals. Euro 2020 fans can book England Euro Cup Tickets on our website on exclusively discounted prices.
The first was my first kick of the match following four minutes and afterward, the subsequent one was around a short way from the end, when I got a header in. It was brilliant, good memories. I played with Stanley Matthews, Tom Finney, Duncan Edwards, Jimmy Hagan of Sheffield United, and Len Shackleton of Sunderland.
They were incredible, extraordinary players and I'm glad that I played with those individuals. Euro 2020 fans can book the Czech Republic Euro Cup Tickets on our website on exclusively discounted prices.
"I've got some good memories, but my favorite memory is my two goals against Brazil, that's the one.”
And Kane concurred with that, adding: “When you make your England debut, it’s pretty special. I know that feeling and it doesn’t get much better than that.”
Like the rest of the nation, Grainger has been in isolation at home and unable to see his family in recent weeks, but he paid tribute to the care workers who have been with him every day, a notion which was seconded by Kane.
"I'm doing well because I’ve being looked after by the care workers well,” said Grainger, who was also known as the ‘Singing Winger’ in his playing days due to a secondary professional career as a recording artist, which saw him perform on the same bill as the Beatles in 1963.
Without them, I don't have the foggiest idea how I would've done however we're nearly there now.
"But I'm missing the family coming most.”

prompt request for a train au: 12's a conductor, bill's freighthopping.
12&Bill, trains, ~1.3k words, oogles
Bill's got twenty dollars and a knapsack with all her worldly possessions and a vague understanding of how America operates, and a destination. And chutzpah, she's got that in spades.
"Kid's got moxie," she says under her breath, resettling the knapsack on her shoulders. She leans in to the facade of a Starbucks until the WiFi is strong enough to catch, loads a map up, and then heads off towards where someone knows someone who can give her a couch to crash on for the night.
"Sorry, kind of a shitshow," the girl says. Amy? Aimee? Long bleach-blonde hair and a puff-paint, kid-craft t-shirt that says GIRL POWER.
It's a communal house, of course it's a shitshow. Murals and paintings and bits of things everywhere, an antique clawfoot bathtub in the hallway filled with books. Bill follows Amy/Aimee/Aymie/?? up a creaking flight of stairs, trailing a hand over the repeated scrawled-Sharpie RIGSY tags.
"So this is you," Amy (?) says, pushing a door open. It's a small room, mattress on the floor and milk crates for furniture and bare walls except for a small smiley face by the outlet. "Jake's on tour with his band, he's cool with you staying here. You got like a week, maybe. And then we'll figure something else out."
"Just need it for tonight," Bill says. "Thanks."
Amy asks if she can hug Bill - Bill shrugs - they hug, and then Aimee leaves, and then Bill's alone. She lets her knapsack fall down to the floor. She can hear, somewhere, somebody singing. And somewhere else an electric drill. She sits down on the edge of the mattress, knees pulled up to her chin, and she breathes.
A decent night's sleep and a load of laundry and some leftovers in Tupperware later, Bill's moving on. She steps out into the sunlight - a new day - and braces her back against her knapsack, now two vegan lasagnas heavier.
She doesn't know this city and she doesn't know this county but she does know, in general, how to do this. Go down under the bridge, by tracks. The oogles, she can spot them by a mile.
"Trying to head west," she says, in the vague direction of a boy with a face tattoo and dirty overalls. "Anything going out that way?"
He stares back at her blankly.
"My name's Bill," she says, thrusting her hand out.
He looks at it. "Chuckie." Chucky?
"Good to meet you, Chucky. Look, I'm just trying to go, y'know, thattaway-" She hitches a thumb towards where she thinks is west. "And I'm new to the area, so I'd appreciate some help here."
Chuckie's got a pet rat in his vest pocket and a chip on his shoulder. "Nice shoes," he says, sneering.
"Thanks!" she replies. She knows what he means: she's not performing homelessness correctly. Or he thinks she's a tourist who refuses to go native. Too clean, too cutesy. But fuck him, her lavender SBs make her happy and there's time enough to beat them to shit. "So. Westbound trains?"
There's a freight going to Ohio, close enough. Chuck(ie)(y), to his credit, guides her neatly through the hole in the chainlink fence to the railyard, gives her a boost up before swinging up beside her.
"Coal's tricky," he says, sitting down cross-legged up by the rim of the car. "Dangerous."
"Yep. I know." She slides her bag off her shoulders and lets it fall, finds a half-comfortable spot to sit down in. "So you're headed my way?"
"Just headed out," he says, leaning back, tempting fate.
The train pulls in to Fuck Knows Where, Ohio. Chucky(?) shakes her hand and then slinks off. And she's alone.
She catches out in the railyard, after some brief advice from a girl who's nodding hard and slurring her words.
"Thanks," Bill says. She hugs the girl, feeling her slump down in her arms. "Be safe, yeah?"
She takes a running jump at a passing boxcar and hoists herself up. Bag off, feet up, she eats half a granola bar and watches the scenery pass by.
The train gets to Nebraska before it stops more than an hour. She wakes up, and then wakes up all the way. Legs stiff, hunger eating at her.
Someone's coming. Guard, probably. She can't see an exit from this angle, so she settles on looking young and dumb.
"Nice accent," the someone says. He clicks his flashlight off before it reaches her.
"Thanks, made it myself."
"Expat?"
"Something like that." She tries to focus on him, and fails.
"Same here. This is a good car. Ideal, really. Way better than a grainer. You have much farther left to go?"
She can't see him, the sun where it is, but she can tell that he's older, inexplicably Scottish, and willing to look the other way. "A bit, yeah," she says, heart in her mouth.
"This train's going to Utah. After that, you need to keep going, I'll be headed wherever. Just let me know. I'll be in the, uh. The big choo-choo at the front."
She grins, mostly out of panic. The stranger moves on.
The train hits Utah and then waits. Bill picks her bag up and puts it on, swings down off the box car and follows the train up to the engine.
"Heya," she says, shielding her eyes from the sun.
"Hello," the stranger says. Conductor, going by the general demeanor and the hat nestled in his halo of hair. "Are you the one in the boxcar?"
"Yep," she says brightly.
She pauses. The conductor makes a 'cmon up already' motion. She climbs into the car, puts her bag between her feet.
"Next stop, whatever," the conductor says.
The train operator is a young woman, pretty, all dark brown hair and dark brown eyes, currently rolling those eyes. "You need to stop bringing in strays," she says.
"Says who."
"Says me, and your employer."
"Sounds false. Not buying it." The conductor grins at Bill. Bill grins back.
"Be safe," the operator says. She hugs the conductor.
"Fuck that," the conductor says fondly.
Something between them, maybe, once, a long ways off. Bill settles her pack on her shoulders and looks politely away.
"You'll take care of him," the operator says. Almost like she means it as a threat.
"Sure, yeah," Bill replies.
The operator kisses the conductor, and Bill looks away again.
They hop off, and the train pulls away, and they're alone.
"Heading anywhere in particular?" the conductor says, breaking the silence.
"West," she says. "To meet a girl."
"Always good to have a destination. Well, sometimes. Maybe."
Out in the bright sunlight of the yard, she can see him clearly. Oldish, yeah, all scattershot grey hair and an intensely lined face, but something youthful about him, and a glint in his eye. His uniform is well tended-to but worn out.
"I used to - you know, what you do - but now I've got a card says I'm legally allowed to," he says. He's got no bag or anything, just a busted coat and whatever's in the pockets.
"Bill," Bill says. "I mean - I'm Bill. Seems like this is a situation for first-name basis. And you?"
"The Conductor," The Conductor says. "I've forgotten the rest."
"So westward, then?"
"If you like. Maybe some stops on the way, I like those. There's a train to Las Vegas in the morning, if you'd like to head that way."
"Yeah. And tonight - I'm, uh - got a friend of a friend of a friend with a spare couch, could probably fit us both, if you want - like if we're doing this, together."
He smiles and gingerly taps her on her forearm. "I'll follow your lead," he says.
She grins back, and settles her pack around her shoulders, and they head off to find the nearest free WiFi so she can pull up a map of where they're meant to go.
("I can fix it," he says, pulling a busted old phone out of his jacket pocket. Bright blue case, running an OS she doesn't recognize. He flails at it for a bit and then she's got four bars. Gift horses, mouths, etc.)

C'est également le dernier seigneur du temps et il parcourt le temps et l'espace afin de visiter des époques ou des lieux mémorables ! Son TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space) est la machine à voyager dans le temps qui lui permet de faire ces fabuleux voyages... Mais le Docteur ne voyage pas seul, il a des compagnons réguliers ou non... Pour un synopsis plus complet, cela va être difficile sans trop spoiler ... donc je vous laisse découvrir et me tais pour le moment (mon article plus bas dévoile des informations) # Mon Avis Cette série est au premier abord un peu Kitch et vieillotte... XD je ne peux pas parler de la première saison, je n'ai vu que les épisodes parus en 2005 jusqu'à nos jours mais ... ouah ! Une fois dedans, on a du mal à en sortir ! Les histoires sont toutes plus abracabrantes les unes que les autres mais on suit les aventures du/des docteurs et de ces compagnons ! Le fait que le Docteur change d'apparence et de compagnons apporte une touche d'originalité et même si on s'accroche facilement à tous les personnages pour les voir disparaitre, on attend les nouveaux encore et toujours ! J'ai une petite préférence pour les personnages avec les Anges Pleureurs et mon Docteur préféré est forcément David Tennant avec la jolie Rose... mais Matt Smith est vraiment crédible dans le rôle ! A la fois jeune à la fois vieux, il fait vraiment intemporel alors je commence à le trouver aussi bien que David Tennant, je pense qu'encore quelques épisodes suffiront XD Bref, si vous aimez les séries de SF bourrées d'humour et bien n'hésitez pas !!! Ah j'ai même pas parlé des ennemis.... Y'a trop trop trop à dire sur cette série.. # Et ensuite... Je recopie l'article que j'avais fait pour Wikio il y a quelques mois (années ?) j'avais pas osé à ce moment la puisque c'était sensé me donner des sous maintenant ... que ça me rapporte pu rien du tout autant vous le partager !! Voyagez à travers le temps et l'espace dans une boite bleue avec un homme à deux cœurs ? Vous trouvez ça... étrange ? Regardez donc cette série et vous verrez que plus rien ne vous surprendra après ça. Doctor Who est une série britannique au genre science-fiction, mais également comique et légèrement historique bien que la plupart des faits sont réinventés. Son côté kitch est totalement assumé et c'est tant mieux. La première apparition du Docteur sur les écrans s'est faite en 1963 et c'est en 1989 que la 26e saison s'achève. Mais rapidement, une autre série fait son apparition et c'est en 2005 que le Docteur revient enfin sur le petit écran. Au cours des différentes saisons, de nombreux acteurs ont incarné le fameux Docteur. Ainsi, le onzième et dernier Docteur pour le moment officie depuis 2010. Qui est donc ce fameux Docteur ? Le Docteur est un extraterrestre à deux cœurs qui voyage à travers le temps et l'espace avec ses compagnons à bord de son Tardis, une cabine téléphonique de la police britannique. Il est le dernier Seigneur du Temps et pour cela, il doit faire un choix entre aider ou ne pas aider les gens qu’il côtoie au risque de perturber le continuum de l’espace-temps. Le Docteur, armé de son tournevis supersonique, décrypte les mystères d’une façon toujours excentrique. # Mais pourquoi cette série est-elle devenue culte outre-Manche ? Le synopsis Les synopsis sont toujours très bien ficelés et les acteurs jouent admirablement bien. Les aventures sont toujours énigmatiques, complexes et nous amènent toujours dans un monde fabuleux. Le docteur Même si les différents acteurs jouant le Docteur ont des physiques totalement différents, leur personnage reste pourtant le même, ou presque. Les compagnons du docteur Ces acolytes ne paraissent pas au second plan, ils ont leurs propres personnalités qui rivalisent parfaitement avec le Docteur, parfois en tant que frein, parfois en tant qu'accélérateur. Les ennemis du docteur Les apparitions des ennemis du Docteur sont toujours bien pensées et apportent les touches sombres au comique ambiant de la série, comique qui est toujours omniprésent, sans doute lié au Docteur qui est vraiment un personnage insolite. Cette série est un des musts en ce qui est des séries de Science-Fiction, car une fois que l'on commence à suivre le Docteur, on ne peut plus s'arrêter.

RAMBLIN’ ON MY MIND Catch out with Spectacle for the summer with these four documentaries spanning five decades all revolving around the mythical hobo and their prefered mode of transport, hopping freight trains. Filled with lush landscapes, and scenery that make the Hudson River Valley school of painters look like Thomas Kinkade, these films use train riding as a vehicle to tell unique stories of the hobo subculture, class disparity in the United States, and personal stories of those out there riding the rails. — WHO IS BOZO TEXINO? Dir. Bill Daniel, 2005 USA. 57min TUESDAY, JUNE 19th, 7:30 & 10PM, FILMMAKER IN PERSON, $10 Shot in 8mm and 16mm over 16 years, the infamous WHO IS BOZO TEXINO? is an experimental documentary searching for the identities and stories behind the ubiquitous and yet esoteric art of hobo graffiti found on the sides of boxcars, grainers and train bridges spanning North America from coast to coast. Landing somewhere between outsider art and subculture minutiae—utilizing the conjecture, half-truths, tall tales and mythology that occupies the jungles and campfires—Daniel interviews an array of old timers, hobos and rail workers as well as streak and moniker heavyweights like Herby, The Rambler, and Colossus of Roads. Bill Daniel is a filmmaker, photographer and installation artist based in the Gulf coast of Texas. Bill is currently touring on his newly released book of photos Tri-X Noise, and will have copies and other goods for sale at the screening. — HOBO Dir. John T. Davis, 1992 UK. 90min Irish director John T. Davis follows Beargrease, a vietnam veteran and father, as he travels and philosophizes from Minneapolis to Seattle via freight train. HOBO is a powerful portrait of the American poor and working class, using the train line as a means to get from town to town, meeting the depressed and marginalized along the way in the soup kitchens, unemployment offices and jungles at the sides of the tracks. With scenes of hobos reading newspapers, listening to the radio news programs and slandering politicians, the documentary shows the hobo not as an out-of-touch outcast from society, but an engaged yet struggling worker trying to make ends meet with what is at their disposal; chancing the risk of arrest or even death for a free ride to the next town. HOBO addresses subjects of homelessness, class disparity, alcoholism, and even sex-workers’ rights through Beargrease’s conversations with his traveling partners and land-locked friends along his route. — LONG GONE Dir. Jack Cahill, David Eberhardt, 2003 USA. 90min Featuring an original score by Tom Waits and filmed over seven years and 30,000+ miles, LONG GONE follows a large cast of hobos spanning multiple generations: The aging veterans Horizontal John & Joshua Long Gone; the publically besmirched Dogman Tony with his young bride and loyal tramp friends, and the steadfast, level-headed New York Slim, are contrasted with the younger generation of punks that have taken to hopping trains, James, Jessie, and Stonie. Filmmakers Jack Cahill and David Eberhardt are so comfortable with their subjects that the camera becomes invisible as they deal with depression, loss, drug use, alcoholism and being a scapegoat for the state to pin multiple murder charges on (really!). LONG GONE is less about the act of riding the rails, and more about the personal stories and circumstances of those riding them. — THE LAST OF THE AMERICAN HOBOES Dir. Titus Moede, 1967 USA. 82 min A labor of love for director, schlockmeister, and jack of all film-trades, Titus Moede—who himself played a hobo in the 1964 film THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES WHO STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED-UP ZOMBIES!!?, and is considered to be one of the better directors of early B-grade adult films—LAST OF THE AMERICAN HOBOES is a docu-drama love letter to the hobos, hitchhikers and working men of decades past. Part historical documentary, part afterschool special, part original musical and all ‘bo-sploitation, the film is good-natured at heart, attempting to dispel the myths and misconceptions that accompany tramps and vagabonds, but at points just ends up enforcing others. Featuring flashbacks within flashbacks, and even a segment devoted to the Wobblies via a miniature Joe Hill bio-pic. With all the attention that surfers, bikers and even cannibals got in the 60s and 70s, one wonders how ‘bo-sploitation never took off as a genre.

Doctor Who: The Finale Countdown!
Last night’s Doctor Who Q&A session featuring Pearl Mackie and Steven Moffat is now available on BBC One’s official Facebook page, featuring performances of some of the show’s music from the BBC National Orchestra of Wales!
The show’s ‘house band’, conducted by Alastair King, accompanied last night’s special Cardiff screening of World Enough and Time with a live performance of Murray Gold’s score for the episode.
Although this performance isn’t currently available to watch (fingers crossed!), the orchestra did perform the following pieces during the Q&A session:
00:37 A Good Man? (Twelve’s Theme) - Murray Gold
15:24 Bill’s Theme - Murray Gold
25:46 Breaking The Wall (from Heaven Sent) - Murray Gold
36:32 Doctor Who Theme - Ron Grainer arr. Murray Gold
During the session, Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat, who was joined by Pearl Mackie, paid a touching tribute to the orchestra, who have been providing music for the show for over ten years:
“I honestly don’t know how you guys do that. That’s not normal. That’s not human. That’s absolutely amazing. And genuinely, I’m not just saying that - I was saying it to Pearl earlier - it just takes my breath away, what you guys do.It is beautiful and extraordinary.”
World Enough and Time is available to catch up on at BBC iPlayer. The Doctor Falls airs on Saturday 1st July at 6:30pm on BBC One and at 9/8c on BBC America.

Douzième Docteur, joué par Peter Capaldi (2013-), doublé par Philippe Résimont en français.Les compagnons du docteur (je note que ceux à partir du neuvième docteur sinon j'ai pas fini)- Neuvième Docteur Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) Adam Mitchell (Bruno Langley) Capitaine Jack Harkness (John Barrowman- Dixième Docteur Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) Jackie Tyler (Camille Coduri) Mickey Smith (Noel Clarke) Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen) Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman) Capitaine Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) River Song (Alex Kingston)- Onzième Docteur Amelia "Amy" Pond (Karen Gillan) Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill) River Song (Alex Kingston) Clara (Jenna-Louise Coleman)- Douzième Docteur Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman) River Song (Alex Kingston) Nardole (Matt Lucas) Bill (Pearl Mackie) # Mon Synopsis Le Docteur est un voyageur spatio-temporel. C'est également le dernier seigneur du temps et il parcourt le temps et l'espace afin de visiter des époques ou des lieux mémorables ! Son TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space) est la machine à voyager dans le temps qui lui permet de faire ces fabuleux voyages... Mais le Docteur ne voyage pas seul, il a des compagnons réguliers ou non... Pour un synopsis plus complet, cela va être difficile sans trop spoiler ... donc je vous laisse découvrir et me tais pour le moment (mon article plus bas dévoile des informations) # Mon Avis Cette série est au premier abord un peu Kitch et vieillotte... XD je ne peux pas parler de la première saison, je n'ai vu que les épisodes parus en 2005 jusqu'à nos jours mais ... ouah ! Une fois dedans, on a du mal à en sortir ! Les histoires sont toutes plus abracabrantes les unes que les autres mais on suit les aventures du/des docteurs et de ces compagnons ! Le fait que le Docteur change d'apparence et de compagnons apporte une touche d'originalité et même si on s'accroche facilement à tous les personnages pour les voir disparaitre, on attend les nouveaux encore et toujours ! J'ai une petite préférence pour les personnages avec les Anges Pleureurs et mon Docteur préféré est forcément David Tennant avec la jolie Rose... mais Matt Smith est vraiment crédible dans le rôle ! A la fois jeune à la fois vieux, il fait vraiment intemporel alors je commence à le trouver aussi bien que David Tennant, je pense qu'encore quelques épisodes suffiront XD Bref, si vous aimez les séries de SF bourrées d'humour et bien n'hésitez pas !!! Ah j'ai même pas parlé des ennemis.... Y'a trop trop trop à dire sur cette série.. # Et ensuite... Je recopie l'article que j'avais fait pour Wikio il y a quelques mois (années ?) j'avais pas osé à ce moment la puisque c'était sensé me donner des sous maintenant ... que ça me rapporte pu rien du tout autant vous le partager !! Voyagez à travers le temps et l'espace dans une boite bleue avec un homme à deux cœurs ? Vous trouvez ça... étrange ? Regardez donc cette série et vous verrez que plus rien ne vous surprendra après ça. Doctor Who est une série britannique au genre science-fiction, mais également comique et légèrement historique bien que la plupart des faits sont réinventés. Son côté kitch est totalement assumé et c'est tant mieux. La première apparition du Docteur sur les écrans s'est faite en 1963 et c'est en 1989 que la 26e saison s'achève. Mais rapidement, une autre série fait son apparition et c'est en 2005 que le Docteur revient enfin sur le petit écran. Au cours des différentes saisons, de nombreux acteurs ont incarné le fameux Docteur. Ainsi, le onzième et dernier Docteur pour le moment officie depuis 2010. Qui est donc ce fameux Docteur ? Le Docteur est un extraterrestre à deux cœurs qui voyage à travers le temps et l'espace avec ses compagnons à bord de son Tardis, une cabine téléphonique de la police britannique. Il est le dernier Seigneur du Temps et pour cela, il doit faire un choix entre aider ou ne pas aider les gens qu’il côtoie au risque de perturber le continuum de l’espace-temps.
