DVDs To Go!

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

With the imminent re-release of Remembrance of the Daleks I was wondering what the state of play was with the DVD releases. Did a bit of checking and, if you disregard the titles that have already been announced then what we have left to look forward to for each Doctor [other than Colin] is as follows:

Bill - 8

Pat - 3

Jon - 13

Tom - 13

Peter - 6

Sylv - 6

I think it`s safe to assume that DVD will follow the VHS release pattern in that the incomplete stories will come out towards the end of the schedule, but given that we`ve already had The Invasion, you never know!

From the Keyboard of Barry- Week 5

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

In what has been an absolutely quiet week for me on the forum I have been watching from the sidelines and there are a few things I want to talk about in this blog.

Firstly, Torchwood. What a FANTASTIC week. I think I only rated episode 1 as 4/5 the rest were 5/5. The best piece of telly I’ve seen in ages.

The Randomiser has been plugging away rather nicely and for it’s first week it went OK, although it’s a little less response than I’d thought. This week is already looking better although my knowledge of Ambassadors of Death is patchy at best. Next week is Destiny of the Daleks and that it will be a different story. It was the first story I got on VHS so I’ve probably watched it the most and can pick holes in it from memory without having to refresh my memory like I did with Tooth and Claw.

It’s been over a week since the last meeting and more people have been adding themselves to the forum so the momentum is building. I’ve still to post over 100 messages and Alan is sneaking past Bryan in the posting stakes, abliet very briefly.  As I write this blog we’re waiting on post 800 but it might be me with my Blog plug…

So what’s next for Glasgow Who? Well some of us are going to see Katy Manning on August 2nd and then back to The Crystal Palace in the evening for our monthly meeting.

I am really dissapointed with one thing though, Bryan’s not doing a quiz next month!

Never mind

Till next time my friends, keep posting and most of all have fun on this little corner of the internet we call Glasgow Who :)
