Kat, I love your avatar! :lol:

Thanks Cherry. I see the site has a new moustache item so of course I grew this one naturally to join the masses. XD

There's some new series 6 promo pictures! Matt has been airbrushed into looking even more weird for some reason. The preview link above the pictures is pretty spoilery for The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon.

His fondant face wasn't fondanty enough, apparently.

Fondant makes me think of Ace of Cakes. I'm sure they've made more realistic faces than the BBC graphics department have recently.

Yes, I meant cake fondant. Matt Smith's face looks like it's made of it.

*puts fingers in the ears in an attempt to ignore the spoilers*

I try to mark any spoilers clearly, sorry if I haven't been vigilant enough.

Unless Matt Smith's face being weird is a spoiler. Personally I think he looks like he's been carved out of a potato at times.

No spoilers, Taiyo. We were commented on how an actor looks weird.

Maybe it's reveled that Time Lords have cake DNA this series?

Dun dun dunnn!

Or rather more like Dun dun dun! Dun dun, dundun dun!

Taiyo, look away, it's terribly spoilery:

I like the captions when nothing is being said. :lol:

I would genuinely support every episode of Doctor Who, if not every television show in existence, ending with that dance. Ha ha ha ha.

Murray Gold is going to do the soundtrack for Torchwood: Miracle Day. There's one positive at least.

(after researching) Ooh, cool! He's done some great Who songs. :D

Stop acting like the new Torchwood will be bad, I want to be excited for this, I love Torchwood so. :gonk:

Also, if any of you live in or reasonably near NYC, you can go meet the Series 5/6 cast tomorrow.

Sorry, just a momentary blip in me trying to stay open minded. I need to rewatch Children of Earth and focus on the good things like Peter Capaldi being amazing.

I want to meet Arthur Darvill! If anyone goes they need to steal him for me.

I like the fact that the TARDIS got in on the dance number.

Hmm.... *strokes imaginary goatee* If I hopped in the car RIGHT NOW and drove all night long, I could probably make it to New York City in time... haha. :lol:

Kat - I liked Children of Earth. Well, except for

SPOILERX

Ianto dying. GRRRARRR.

But I did like it. I just wish we'd get a full season again instead of these little mini series. :( The continuity is great, but you can do that in a 12 episode season! Doesn't need to be 5 episodes! :gonk:

Biggs - TARDIS got mad dance moves, yo.

Lost - Go go go! :lol: Gahhh, here's to hoping they'll do signings in less prominent towns... won't happen, but a girl can dream.

Probably for the best, though. I'd probably try to touch Matt Smith's face. WHAT IS IT MADE OF?!

It's made out of Play-Doh, silly! :rofl:

And I can't make any promises to NOT chop of Karen Gillan's hair to make myself a lovely wig.

Austin, if all you are lacking is motivation, I say DO EEET.
Got to follow your passions, and make them work for you.

I should clarify, I meant the road trip, not the wig making.

But also the wig making.

alixmcsea: I can't decide what to do. Go for a walk? Make some Horlicks? Watch Boosh? Just try to sleep?
Simon ------: Do you really walk alone in the dead of night?
alixmcsea: it's safe here.
alixmcsea: I did it all the time in the summer
Simon ------: If you're trying to sleep, tv doesn't really help.
alixmcsea: pretty much the only way I maintained my sanity
Simon ------: And I don't know what horlicks are.
Simon ------: I thought they were aliens in a sci-fi show.
alixmcsea: it's a malt and warm milk beverage, supposed to help with sleep
alixmcsea: I think you are thinking of Daleks
Simon ------: Yeah, ok.
Simon ------: They're distant cousins.
alixmcsea: both carbon based, I guess
Simon ------: A dalek is an upside down trash can with a toilet paper roll extension.
alixmcsea: my
alixmcsea: mhm*
alixmcsea: well, more like a plunger
Simon -------: I don't find them intimidating at all.
alixmcsea: they can levitate though, craaaazy
Simon ------: But they can't drive a car.
alixmcsea: also, they can attack you with whisks
Simon ------: And I'm not sure if they can operate door knobs.
alixmcsea: they can proably use the whisk for that
alixmcsea: can daleks use doorknobs? - Google Search
Simon ------: I was watching old "Twilight Zone" episodes.
alixmcsea: no obvious answers to that question
Simon ------: My memory was they were great. But I don't find that anymore.
alixmcsea: yes, that's often the way
alixmcsea: they don't change, but mindsets do
Simon ------: I guess my tastes have become more refined.
alixmcsea: Averting the Robot Uprising | Willow Garage
alixmcsea: 3.Stairs are the enemy of cows, Daleks, and wheeled robots.
2.Black power outlets are like Ninjas: invisible to the PR2.
3.Use round door knobs. The PR2 can only enter homes that are ADA-compliant.
Simon ------: Yup.
Simon ------: They're just not one of the bad guys I fear. Along with mummies.
alixmcsea: although, those homes that have the pull ropes for service dogs, they could probably get into one of those
Simon ------: I'm finishing off my birthday cake.
alixmcsea: oh, was it your birthday?
Simon ------: No, but I was in the mood for cake so I bought one.
alixmcsea: aha
alixmcsea: I had one of those too rich vegan cookies my mum buys me
Simon ------: The lady asked "do you want to put something on it?" "No." "It's free." "Ok, put 'happy birthday Simon.'"
alixmcsea: haha

Dalek Shop Talk

Now I want cake...

Daleks are usually in settings with electronic and/or auto open doors... But they could just use their lasers to disintegrate any doors in their way. You should have mentioned the lasers, the lasers are what makes them scary.

They could also probably use their plungers, though... Surely those have more applications than face-sucking.

In the future everyone is too lazy for manual doors. Or just want to remove the embarrassment caused by trying to open a door the wrong away. After a whole semester I still couldn't remember whether the door to my Neuroscience lecture theatre opened inwards or outwards.

Daleks could probably cook you something with their whisk attachment.

Or at least whip batter briskly until creamy and well-blended.
