step we gaily on we go, heel for heel and toe for toe, arm in arm and row on row, all for Sarah`s Wedding…!

Well, today`s the day - the SJA story we`ve all been waiting for, the one where The Doctor himself finally appears! Hooray!

Prisoner of the Judoon was a good opener, with a great turn from Lis as Sarah/Androvax.[Much better than “Eldrad Must Live!”]

The Mad Woman In The Attic was a pretty plot-lite story I thought but a nice riff on the “not aliens are bad” idea. Great Make-Up/Prosthetic  job on Eve & nice to see Lis` husband Brian Miller again. But of course it was the Flashbacks that really got the attention - Time Warrior, Planet of the Spiders, Five Doctors, Hand of Fear - Hooray for flashbacks!

Only downside to the whole thing in the run-up to today`s TX is the spoilerific nature of the trailers, revealing The Trickster as the villain. But then again, it`s not exactly rocket science is it, I mean every story so far that`s had “Sarah Jane” in the title has involved The Trickster!

The Missus was well put out to discover old Tricksy was back [she finds his facial deficiencies a biti creepy] so minus marks all round for the Beeb in our house.

REALLY looking forward to today`s ep & tomorrow`s conclusion. And don`t forget both episodes are repeated on CBBC [ 613 on Sky] at 17.15 on Saturday. I`ll be watching. Will you?

The TARDIS In The Attic - oh yes!

By now you should all have received an email with details about our plans for next year`s event - the biggest we`ve ever attempted and I`m sure our best yet!

Please read the email carfeully as it`s vital that we get as many advance sales as possible. If we don`t get those advance sales by the cut-off date - November 23rd 2009 - then the event will NOT happen.

And, in the words of Brigadier Winifred Bambera that would be a real “Shame!”

Alan has some great plans for this event but we really need your upfront support to make sure it goes ahead.

The future of Glasgow Who  - and the events on which its reputation has been built - is up to YOU!

I`ll see you all on November 8th!

Well it’s here,

The new Doctor Who logo has now been put up on the BBC Doctor Who Website.

First opinions? Meh. It’s ok and it’ll will grow on me but I’m not going to sulk in a corner and then write a hate filled letter to Mister Moffat like some were suggesting on the forum :). It kinda smacks of the Dark Dimension logo that was punted for the failed movie attempt in the 90’s especially the TARDIS motif.

Moving onto the forum business and I’ve decided to fit in with the other Mods and my user name is now Barry Stanton and not deanstructor like it was. It seems a little odd being one of the four guys being the only one with a real internet user name. I’ve always used that user name for over 10 years online but it’s just not a suitable one on the forum anymore.

We have a bigger clan every month at the meetings and hello and welcome to Gregor for turning up. I got the chance to speak to Pauline and Christine more this month and hopefully next month I’ll get the chance for a chat Gregor. That’s if the meeting is November 1st as Clarkie and the Aberdeen Sci-Fi guys are due to come down so our meeting may change to accomodate their visit. Bryan will tell you when it’s confirmed here, on the website and the Forum

Oh, BTW to all who are asking. My Birthday turned out to be a crap one.

Not all of them can be good I suppose…

Till we next meet…

Barry

For those of you who have been trying to get onto the Forum for the past day or so, there are some gremlins that have transported themselves into our server and it’s taking a little time to get the blighters out of it. We’re using all the ray guns and sonic screwdrivers we can find and we’ll let you know when everything is back up and running…
