Doctor Who era's summarised with confusing spoilers

One: My kidnapper is annoying and won't shut up.

Two: Are Scotsmen hot? Yes. Very.

Three: Are the military okay? No. Except that one Sergeant; he's sweet.

Four: How many problems can be solved by confectionery and talking out of your arse? More than you would expect.

Five: Single father of three going to be great dad one day.

Six: Tailors are evil and so are the BBC.

Seven: Belief in communism will repel zombies.

Eight: What's worse than death? The US healthcare system.

Nine: Finding people annoying is not mutually exclusive with overwhelming love for humanity. 

Ten: Can a man be both a twink and a lesbian at once?

Eleven: Baby is also eldritch figure from dawn of time.

Twelve: Punk grandad just wants to play guitar.

Thirteen: Local woman under impression that constant longing looks at blonde lady friend definitely mean platonic affection.

i was sitting in my room thinking of how convenient it is that the books in the pjo series takes places before or after the school year. then i remembered that ttc happened during winter break. and that percy and annabeth likely returned for their second semester after that quest. what a tragedy.

"Oh, hey, a bunch of new Doctor Who spoilers dropped! I bet they're all whimsical and well-drawn! Ooh, here comes the Edwardian dandy himself, the Eighth Doct-"

"OH COME ON, THAT WAS ONE TIME!"

Some behind the scenes tidbits I feel normal about (classic who edition):

- apparently every story Matthew Waterhouse's hairstylist would say they were going to trim his hair and never did, resulting in all the variations from crusader triangle to fuck ass bob to shaggy mullet

-Peter Davison was unaware he was many people's sexual awakening in his dressing gown in black orchid

-Colin baker was mistaken for a runner by another actor in arc of infinity and asked to go fetch a coffee (which he did)

-he would also walk around making chicken noises on the set of arc of infinity (until he was told to stop)

-Matthew didn't know adric died in part four of earthshock until he read Peter's script whilst shooting, and was apparently more upset over the fact he was being killed off rather than just leaving

-a lot of the doctor who movie was filmed in the same building as the X-files

-Janet Fielding was told she was good casting for doctor who because she "looked slightly alien"

-Deborah Watling and Frazer Hines used to joke that she left the show because she got pregnant, as she left almost nine months after arriving

-Sylvester Mccoy once couldn't find a filming location until after the doctor who fans, who had been waiting there for an hour

-Paul Mcgann thought all the doctors companions were their kids

-Peter and Sarah Sutton had to stop Janet from accidentally prostituting herself in the red light district

-Sylvester once played the spoons on a guy that tried to menace him

-Paul had to wear a wig because he was casted with the long hair you see in the movie but cut it all off for another role a couple months before they started filming

-Janet called Matthew "matte-finish" and "boom-boom waterhouse" whilst filming earthshock

-the cast bought a prop gun for arc of infinity from a sex shop in amsterdam

(Just to stress I obviously don't know the validity of these I just sourced them from interviews and commentaries!! Please don't come for me if these aren't accurate! These are just some funny things I've heard and if anyone else knows any random facts or stories feel free to reblog/share!!)

all he had was no memories, a party city costume, borrowed shoes, too much chemistry with his costars and a dream. and he damn well made it work

this is the worst. watching the downfall of the tories - including heavy hitters like liz truss and jacob rees mogg - should be a joyous occasion but it’s ruined by keir starmer being an absolute bell end who doesn’t deserve any of this.

paul mcgann did not wear a neck scarf and the chanel boots to san fransisco just for people to say that david tennant is the first gay in doctorwho. don’t worry mr. doctor. i saw your chanel boots

everytime i watch anything that has paul mcgann in it i always sit there afterwards thinking what a fucking tragedy it was that he never got seasons as the doctor.
