Another of Mestor’s misguided #DoctorWho opinions: although I love Hartnell’s speech at the end of DIOE, his reaction to the departure of Ian and Barbara is far more powerful. Just look at his performance here; there is conviction in every frame, and it kills me every time 😢

For any #DoctorWho fan young or old who has never read a Target novelisation, it’s passages like these that make the best of them worth reading: the way Hulke fleshes out a relatively minor character in just one paragraph is a master stroke. He and Uncle Terrance were geniuses!

I understand that many #DoctorWho fans have a mental block when it comes to The Twin Dilemma; I’ve heard the many tired views of umpteen podcasters on the subject. But there are so many humorous scenes and examples of witty verbiage, beautifully performed, and sadly ignored!

Happy 50th birthday to the range that inspired generations of #DoctorWho fans: the Target books! So many happy memories! I thought I’d share 4 of my favourites! Oh, and I might just have bought three hardbacks today in celebration. It would have been rude not to!

Friday night’s #DoctorWho will be an emotional one for me; the story which, without hyperbole, changed my life! The story that made me a fan! There’ll be a lump in my throat and a dewy eye all the way through. A sublime marvel for which I am forever grateful…

It isn’t every day that one comes home from work to find a #DoctorWho holy grail on the doormat. Today is one of those days! Just look at this sacred relic! That cover 🤩 Is it not magnificent? I feel blessed to add this rare tome to my collection!

@JuliaHB1 Absolutely not! I am a teacher, have refused to wear a mask in the classroom, and can confirm that they are a barrier to learning. Plus, children have still been forced to self-isolate repeatedly, even though they've been wearing them. A pointless policy!

Aside from the fact that this scene reminds me that I must use this expression more in everyday conversation, it is the single best reaction to the interior of the TARDIS in the history of #DoctorWho Note, NuWho fans, that he doesn’t blub or need to be asked if he’s “okay” 🤪

I pause for a moment in tribute to two actors whose very presence in #DoctorWho Attack of the Cybermen elevates it to another level: Maurice Colbourne, who’s blooming terrifying, and Brian Glover who’s awesome in everything! RIP legends!
