So, not in any meaningful way 'skipping', just moving it forward a week, because after 13 years, there's really nothing left to say about Christmas trees.

Yeah, the comedians haven't really delivered, although I think it's fair to say not many were assisted by being given decent parts. Bill Bailey, Peter Kay, Lee wotsit in Planet of the Dead, and Alexander Armstrong were all pretty awful, Claire Skinner just about gets a pass, and Frank Skinner...

Anyway, looks awesome. I've always loved the original cybermen.

I think there's a legitimate discussion to be had about why Elrond - who, let's face it, isn't stood on the slopes of Mount Doom with an army at his back just for the sake of a nice afternoon picnic in Mordor - doesn't do more to stop Isildur, and why when Isildur snatches the Ring, Elrond...

Why, thank you, and hello too! Lovely to be here! Well, I'm not sure it was entirely verbal: That doesn't sound like testimony from someone who was saying, 'We went to war, and then something all weird and invisible happened!' I think the point is Elrond could clearly see it, and was...

'Even if it kills me'. Hmmmmm.

Good God, how many times is Bill going to meet him?

I'm not sure I'd call the season ill conceived, as much as ill executed. Having the Doctor put on trial by his peers as a metaphor for the show's larger problems...well, alright, it probably still is self-indulgent tosh as a concept, but I'm prepared to believe it could have been done well, and...

Wiser words were never spoken.

I appreciate it's remembered more for its admittedly magnificent opening credits, but those aside, I think it's rather good. Quite creepy for a children's show. When they packaged it with Invisible Enemy, I considered it by far the superior of the two.

Yep. Snuffed out. Just like that.

All gone. :( All those years. Wiped.

Well, that was brutal in its efficiency. We move on, but I'm still sad.

This old body of mine is wearing a bit thin...

So, where was I? Oh, that's right...Barcelona! ..
