Doctor Who and the Space War is genuinely one of the best pieces of Doctor Who media. If you love the Master then it is essential reading!

Our episode about Frontier in Space is out tomorrow, and I dont stop talking about the novelisation the entire time.

Plese read this book. Delgado!Master is elevated to another level.

I think my favourite part about Tales of the TARDIS is that we get to see companions who have grown old, who are allowed to grow old.

Because in NuWho its become a trend for companions to leave in violent and brutal ways, only leaving because theyre ripped away. But Tales of the TARDIS let us see companions who grew old, lived lives after the Doctor. They get the soft ending of growing old.

Jamie gets to have daughters and grandchildren. Peri becomes a warrior queen. Vicki gets to live with her love. Tegan gets to chase her own adventures. Jo lives a life with her husband.

They get the opportunity to grow old. Leaving the Doctor isn't the end of them, rather it's the start of a different, maybe even better adventure. These shorts hold then companions and say 'it isn't a tragedy' and it's refreshing after the tragic exits of modern companions.

#Wren rambles #Doctor who #Classic Doctor who #Because so many of their stories could have ended in tragedy #Jamie was dumped back into a war zone with no memories #Vicki knew nothing about living in ancient Greece #Many just left on random scattered planets or space stations #And we had no idea if they had a happy ending or not #No idea if they were right to leave #And they WERE.#It makes me very happy

Doctor Who robot designs really peaked in the 1960s

batfam headcanon:

Tim and Dick both love Doctor Who and bond over it a lot.

Dick is a Star Wars fan while Tim is a Star Trek fan. They butt heads about it occasionally.

Dick stans R2-D2. Tim stans Kirk (and maybe has a crush on him).

(…okay, Dick 100% had a crush on Leia. and dressed up as Han for Halloween once. or several times.)

Meanwhile, Jason’s vibing with Back to the Future and Lost in Space (and the book The Little Prince).

Dick loves the Avatar movies while Jason loves Avatar the Last Airbender. (Jason gives him shit a lot for them having stolen the name.)

prompts ᯓᡣ𐭩 space

"You’ve literally just put us in the middle of space."

"Trust me, I’ve been to a lot of planets."

"I’d rather be stranded on this planet then be here with you."

"You talk to the universe or something."

"So you thought the space aliens weren’t cool enough for you?"

"Isn’t it the cutest little alien you’ve ever seen? Can we keep it?"

"I would destroy the galaxy for you."

"Take control of the galaxy, with me."

"I’ve never seen a star so beautiful."

"All this time roaming the galaxy, I’ve finally found you."

"That spacesuit looks hot on you."

"My heart like an exploding star."

"This planet is ours."

"You can go to every galaxy but you will never catch me."

"Wherever we go, we go together."

"What do you think lives here?"

"I’d take my chances with [insert space beast]."

"I thought it was cute!" (Says screaming while being chased)

"This planet is deceiving."

"Do you ever think what it would be like, just the two of us in the galaxy?"

"Don't eat that."

"I cannot...it is against my people."

"What if we don't speak to beings that don't speak our language?"

"You take your planet for granted."

"Have you ever piloted a spaceship before?"

"It's really tight in this cockpit..."

"If you break my ship I'll kill you."

"Listen here alien!"

"Great we crashed."

"Please let me touch your armor!"

"What is it made out of?"

"Put your helmet back on."

"I've never met your species before."

"Don't breathe the air."

"Who owns this planet!"

"Step out of the ship and we won't have any problems."

Michael Craze pops up as Vince Kelly, a teenage runaway from a borstal centre, in Gideon's Way: Boy With Gun (1.23, ITC, 1966)

#fave spotting #michael craze #ben jackson #doctor who #gideon's way #1966 #boy with gun #itc #a relatively rare fave spotting! outside of his DW work‚ Mike didn't make a huge amount of appearances in cult tv‚ at least not many that #survive or are easily seen; he'd previously starred in Target Luna‚ a completely lost serial‚ but didn't return when the show carried on as #Pathfinders in Space (oddly‚ perhaps because of a change of director‚ every single returning character was recast) and beyond #there were also episodes of Dixon pf Dock Green and Armchair Theatre but these are also in all likelihood lost tv; others‚ like an ep of #Hammer's sci fi anthology Journey to the Unknown‚ are frustratingly unavailable to the average viewer (I was really hoping Network would #do something with JttU after they announced an agreement with Hammer but alas it wasn't to be)#mike would have been about 22 when filming this ep (around May '65) but was still largely playing juvenile parts as here #(his age isn't given but as a borstal runaway he's clearly intended to be a teen); this aired in feb or march '66 in most regions‚ by which #time he had presumably been cast in DW (or very near to it; he'd debut in The War Machines in June of that year)#DW would act as a sort of transition for Craze from youth parts into adult roles (i mean Ben's own age is debatable but I'd say he's surely #meant to be at least 18?). there'd be some more guest spots and a few horror films to come (he was a regular collaborator with Norman #J. Warren) but he doesn't pop up with the regularity of many other Who companions so this was a lovely little surprise (zero memory of him #being in it from when i first watched years ago)

what’s with all these villains calling jamie stupid— like what did he do to you??

he’s about to beat your ass, but that’s neither here nor there

#shoutout to zoe for saying he’s untrained instead of agreeing #like 100% honestly #jamie IS NOT STUPID #we joke about the himbo stuff he’s kind and brave and slow on the uptake #but like in his time education was not the priority #war was #so the way he adapts so well to the doctors world of space and monsters #even with road bumps #proves he’s smart and intuitive and he remembers what people tell him #i just i can’t #like he gives me vibes of kids that are treated like they’re bad at school #when they’re actually dyslexic #he’s at a disadvantage for sure #but the krotons and dominators can eat bricks #classic who #jamie mccrimmon #doctor who

Do The Doctors Drink?

One: Yes, but only a small glass of brandy. Never in front of his companions.

Two: No. He gets panicky enough as it is.

Three: This guy drinks wine. But not cheap wine; it has to be vintage and immensely expensive. Not that he ever seems to pay for them, though.

Four: Would you give this creature alcohol?

Five: This dorky dad only drinks tea. No alcohol whatsoever. Whenever one of his kids friends wants to drink (usually Tegan), he gives them a lecture on being responsible; he has to set a good example, after all. This is normally about five seconds before he falls over a priceless vase (breaking said-vase) and knocking himself unconscious. Again.

Six: Likes a glass of scotch on occasion but tends to prefer being alert. He needs all the alertness he can, given what he has to deal with most days.

Seven: This little Machiavellian does not drink, but pretends to do so as to keep everyone off their guard. Has had to pull drinks away from Ace on several occasions, as she’s still underage.

Eight: Only on occasion, only wine, and only socially. Normally in a bohemian French café.

War: He needs a drink but doesn’t have the luxury of doing so very often.

Nine: A couple of pints. No nonsense about it, and never drinks too much. Will sometimes start quoting the Vimes Boot Theory of Socio-Economic Unfairness, depending on who he’s with.

Ten: This twink has woken up in random alleyways after a night out so often that he had to invent a homing device on the TARDIS so he could find his way back. Somehow, this actually managed to get worse after Donna turned up.

Eleven: Would like to drink, but everyone keeps refusing to serve him because he looks, like, nine years old. Even the psychic paper doesn’t help.

Twelve: This man has been drunk at more music festivals than he would like to admit. Although he does start to limit his intake after Bill shows up.

Thirteen: Too neurotic to drink and tends to get very clingy around Yaz on the rare occasion that she does (not that Yaz is complaining too much).

Fugitive: Holds her drink very well and will drink anyone under the table. Always something cool and sophisticated without being expensive.

Noticed a pattern in my fandom experience

Media : these humans befriended non-human creatures and they’re living adventures together

Me, nodding wisely : ah yes, the creatures have good taste in human pets

#Transformers #pokemon #super mario bros #the owl house #doctor who #star wars #forget your space orcs humans I'm here for weird endearing humans

…What’s a Dalek? It sounds familiar…

( @livingwiththedrums )

Some sort of mutated creature from Skaro, they use these metal shells to move around.
