POV you're waiting for your kid brother to bring you back a sword, completely oblivious to either of your fates.

A doodle for @queer-ragnelle's May Day Parade! The more I think about Sir Kay/Cai, the more I like him; loyal to his baby brother, has cool powers, and can cook. What else can I say? Except maybe that I'd like to listen to a heavy metal album of his Welsh exploits.

I thunk a thought. Usually that’s a bad sign but HEAR ME OUT!

Merlin reboot, except…

Arthur: Kit Conner/ Nick Nelson

Merlin: Joe Locke/Charlie Spring

Gwen: Yasmin Finney/Elle Argent

Morgana: Rhea Norwood/Imogen Heaney

Lancelot: William Gao/Tao Xu

Gwaine: Kizzy Edgel/Darcy Olsson

Percival: Corinna Brown/Tara Jones

Leon: Tobie Donovan/Issac Henderson

Let me know if you think of any others, I didn’t really know who to put for Mordred, since my opinions on him are so divided. I thought abt Sebastian Croft/Ben Hope bc Sebastian’s a great guy and Ben SUCKS so it would perfect! But alas, I am unsure.

idk I can literally imagine Spamton NEO in the Snowgrave route being like DIO, more specifically the OVA version, going mad with power and the ambition to achieve Heaven

now for some reason I can imagine him causing mayhem in the streets of Cyber City and pulling off the infamous "ROAD ROLLER DA" but with Queen's limo instead of a steamroller lol

No sonic screwdriver. No TARDIS. No city-razing destruction, nor stupefyingly cute alien critters. As Doctor Who episodes go, ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ couldn’t be more different from the show’s blockbuster comeback, ‘The Star Beast’, if it tried. Last week’s adventure was Who at the peak of its silly, sugar-rush sci-fi powers: a spectacular kick-off to the show’s 60th anniversary celebrations, precision-tooled to dazzle newbies (Whobies?) and dyed-in-the-wool Whovians alike. This week’s, however — essentially a two-hander — is an insular Gothic chamber piece that goes toe-to-toe with Alien in the spaceship-as-haunted-house stakes. Invoking everything from NuWho favourites ‘Midnight’ and ‘Listen’ to sci-fi horror classics Event Horizon and The Thing, Russell T Davies strips everything back here to remind viewers at home that there ain’t no bottle episode like a Doctor Who bottle episode.

Arriving under a shroud of sworn secrecy (even press didn’t see this one until it aired), speculation had been rife about exactly what ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ would be. Rumours of a multi-Doctor story — Peter Capaldi, Matt Smith, Jodie Whittaker: you name ’em and someone had an in-depth Twitter/X thread red-stringing together a theory — abounded. But while technically this is a multi-Doctor story (and a multi-Donna one at that), it’s not one in the way anybody would have expected. And honestly, amid a landscape of disposable cameos and inconsequential fan-service, that the secrecy is in aid of storytelling rather than stunt casting is a blessed relief.

A comical cold open sees the Doctor (David Tennant) and a newly memory-restored Donna (Catherine Tate) flung back to England, circa 1666. There, the duo catalyse Sir Isaac Newton’s (It’s A Sin’s Nathaniel Curtis) discovery of ‘mavity’ (a communicational mishap) and the Doctor’s discovery of bisexuality (“He was hot, wasn’t he?”). But a classic ‘Doctor-meets-historical-figure-and-hijinks-ensue’ caper this is not. And before long, the Doctor and Donna find themselves stranded aboard a seemingly abandoned spaceship harbouring a threat so terrifying that even the TARDIS has done a runner.

The eerie, empty (save for glacially slow Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy-homaging Chekhov’s robot Jimbo), seemingly endless spacecraft corridors and wheezing hydraulic pistons of ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ represent a stark counterpoint to the crashy, bangy, flashy Meepiness of ‘The Star Beast’. A sublime combination of pneumatic practical effects, soundstages, and nifty CGI made possible by that sweet new Disney dollar, the distinctly Nostromo-esque sense of isolation about the ship aptly evokes the abyss of the episode’s edge-of-the-universe setting. It’s a spatial oddity that serves the plot and augments the tone of the piece perfectly, centralising our focus on the Doctor, Donna, and their unique bond as the uncanny threat they face is slowly revealed. That threat? Why themselves, of course. Sort of.

Revealed in a properly creepy sequence that starts with the slow-dawning realisation that something isn’t quite right and climaxes with an injection of out-and-out Cronenbergian body horror, the ‘Not-Things’ are Weeping Angel-level nightmare fuel. Cosmic shapeshifters bent on universal destruction, the demonic doppelgängers — brought to life with palpable, dead-eyed menace by a multi-roling Tennant and Tate — are able to mimic the Doctor and Donna’s form, manner, and even memories.

This set-up leads to a succession of intricately written “I know I’m me but how do I know you’re you?”-type exchanges — including one particularly fiendish bait-and-switch — that really allow Tate and Tennant to flex their acting chops, underlining their inimitable chemistry in the process. It’s also an opportunity for Davies to really hammer home that this is the Fourteenth Doctor, not the Tenth — and Donna Temple-Noble with a family waiting for her at home, not Donna from Chiswick gadding about with a two-hearted spaceman.

One particular exchange, in which canon-reshaping events of the Chris Chibnall era of the show come to the fore, allows Tennant to really click through the gears as he embodies elements of the Doctors who’ve been and gone since last time around: Smith’s wistful longing, Capaldi’s bone-deep grief, Whittaker’s emotional vulnerability. In about 30 seconds, several years of head-spinning exposition is simply, beautifully reframed. The Doctor doesn't really know who they are anymore, running from reckoning with the weight of all that they’ve seen and done, hoping against hope for somebody else out there to understand — if even just for a little while. No matter whether you’re a hardcore Whovian or don’t so much as carry a provisional TARDIS licence, if you’re looking for a distillation of the show’s essential nature, you’d struggle to find one better than this.

‘Wild Blue Yonder’ is a brutally simple, slickly executed high concept that we’ve seen iterative versions of before in OG Tennant/Tate-era fan favourites ‘Midnight’ and ‘Waters Of Mars’. But, especially when considered in the context of Who’s recent turbulent history, its use here — in a conversation-heavy hour of TV that digs deep into the past 15 years of the show both on and off screen — feels utterly singular. Giving folks the Doctor, with their plucky companion and techno-babble and eccentric wardrobe is easy, Davies seems to be saying: anyone can do it. But without genuine emotion — without heart — all you’ve really got is a pale imitation of something truly great, iconography and nothing more. Lucky for us, then, that by the time the credits roll there can be no doubt. This bold new Whoniverse is the real deal, and nothing is wrong… nothing in the whole wide world. *Sniffle*.

Taut, tense, and frequently terrifying, this spaceship-in-a-bottle episode isn’t just an instant Who classic — it’s one of 2023’s finest hours of TV to boot.'

Issac Bauman really SAID THAT. Right into the camera. Dead serious. Loki is in love.

[sinnerxroulette]

Thank Hell for small miracles, the Hotel now had a phone that connected them to Pentious when he couldn't make it to the embassy. Isaac waited patiently for the snake to pick up.

Damn Heaven and its Damn Rules. He was starting to really miss Hell, and not just because his husband was there! Speaking of which-!

Pentious dialed in and waited, bringing the phone to his ear.

Ring... Ring...

[TRUSTING] The sender feeds gently on the receiver's neck. ( issac )

@devourcr ( issac )

it's just like any other time when issac would allow the vampire to feed on him, despite it often times being with reluctance since he didn't like being a human blood bag to the man. he knew armand wouldn't drain him and was comforted in the fact that he knew what he was doing, but that didn't mean the writer wasn't apprehensive.

what he didn't expect this time was the strange feeling that took over him when sitting there on his bed, head tilted back to give full access to his neck. why he liked the feeling of fangs in his neck and the coolness of the vampire beside him that felt nice against his body, he didn't quite know. nor did he know why a faint noise escaped his lips as eyes closed and he brought a hand over to find its way into the vampire's hair. he shouldn't feel this way when fed on, but right now it felt good and he had grown to like it to the point where he didn't want it to end.

Sir Isaac Newton biography

Isaac Newton (1642–1727) was an English mathematician, physicist, astronomer, and theologian, widely recognized as one of the most influential scientists of all time. He made significant contributions to many areas of science, including mathematics, physics, astronomy, and optics. Some of his most notable achievements include: Laws of Motion: Newton formulated the three laws of motion, which…

Thursday's episode will be featuring the ever radiant @grubsucking

[andreabaideas]

Yeah but people are sleeeping on him...

My father started respecting him as an actor and not as a "hunky hunk that my daughter likes" after Peaky Blinders and Journey's End...Then i traumatised him with The nightingale and Every breath you take...Now he is a fan XD

So Sam Claflin played a douchey character as early as 2012.

'Doctor Who fans got a surprise on Saturday, as the second 60th anniversary special, Wild Blue Yonder, opened in a garden in 1666, far away from the spaceship which had previously been trailed.

There, fans were introduced to Isaac Newton, played by unannounced guest star Nathaniel Curtis, who is best known for his work on Russell T Davies's It's a Sin.

The scene saw the Doctor and Donna land in Newton's apple tree, and make a joke about gravity - something which Newton mishears as 'mavity', leading to a running joke throughout the episode where the word appears to have been permanently changed.

However, it turns out that despite their characters exchanging dialogue, Curtis never actually shot with David Tennant and Catherine Tate, with their sections of the scene being filmed separately, in different times and different locations.

Steffan Powell revealed this in the latest episode of Doctor Who: Unleashed, in which he said: "Sometimes, usually because of a clash with timings, actors can be in the very same scene together, without ever actually coming face to face."

He continued: "When it came to filming the Isaac Newton scene in this special, Nathaniel Curtis, who plays the great man himself, was in a walled garden on the Welsh coast, when he was rudely interrupted by a low-flying TARDIS.

"Except the TARDIS, and its occupants, weren't in Isaac Newton's tree. The tree was empty. They were 25 miles away in Cardiff Bay, filming on a different day."

It was then revealed that while Curtis spoke to an empty tree for his scenes, Tennant and Tate filmed theirs against a blue screen.

In the episode of Unleashed, Tennant said: "It's a shame, because I've met Nathaniel and he's really nice, and I would have liked to have a little scene with him."

Tate added: "I would have liked to have met him, I've not met him."

Tennant then joked: "But apparently he asked not to have anything to do with us. He asked to be kept apart, he was very particular. He accepted the part on that very strict condition."

However, Curtis said: "I mean, I love David Tennant. I love David Tennant. A, he's such a lovely man, and B, he's a brilliant Doctor. And I grew up watching David Tennant as the Doctor, so I think that it's a bit surreal, to be honest."'
