Let’s go Tarzan on these monkey’s arses!

I want that on a T shirt

[hummingbird]

I don’t log in for a few months and all of a sudden …. wtf ?
I’ve encountered a lot of attention-seeking wankers in my time, but you, SgtSmileyUK, take the biscuit.
Quite possibly the whole Family Circle assortment.

Now do be a dear and fuck off.

[hummingbird]

Oooh. I might actually be able to make it. Huzzah, etc.

> More and more people come out of the woodwork during New red Dwarf Announcements

I recommend stocking up on RAID this time

[hummingbird]

I’d be happy for everyone concerned to go on doing it until they’re thoroughly sick of it … or until it’s not funny anymore, whichever comes first.
I don’t find the cast ageing to be a problem, I’d rather have an old cast than a new cast. If you completely re-cast, or even replaced the cast one by one, you’d inevitably have a change in the dynamic and it would be a different show.

[hummingbird]

I’m still waiting for my toast, you bastard.

[hummingbird]

>> so how about Smegpedia?

> I vote for this ….. Either that or Dwarfpedia.

Yes, and yes.

[hummingbird]

I’d like some toast, please.

[hummingbird]

If it hadn’t been entirely of his own doing, one could almost feel sorry for the man.

Almost.

Nah.

[hummingbird]

Resolutely not cashing in on his association with RD again, I see.

[hummingbird]

I’m a little late, but Happy New Year everyone! Or should that be Happy New Dwarf?

[hummingbird]

And it’s tha fact that they say he did Harry Potter and that was British so it must be OK. The point, surely, is that HP was new and didn’t have 50 years of history behind it. You can’t just fuck around with that.

WTF are the BBC thinking?

[hummingbird]

Oh dear. That is beyond poor. What were they thinking of?

[hummingbird]

I was just very under-whelmed by it all. It had some good moments, but over all the story felt under-developed and clunky. It seemed as if it was just a filler ep leading up to the scenes with River at the end. I think it’s the weakest of the series.

[hummingbird]

Just watched Closing Time. That was a bit crap, wasn’t it?

[hummingbird]

Very nice.

[hummingbird]

and it appears that you can stick one on the leader of the Third Reich.

[hummingbird]

I second that Woooo.

[hummingbird]

I don’t know … I thought it was a good twist, but I feel as if we’ve been there before. It’s all a little too X-files.

[hummingbird]

What I can’t figure out is why did he kill GangerAmy when he’d been so keen to save the other gangers?
Seems a little inconsistent, if not hypocritical.

[hummingbird]

So much awesome!

The song is lame, though.

[hummingbird]

> That’s the obvious solution to the problem, but it almost seems too obvious to me. I suspect we’ll know more on Saturday – if the Gangerdoctor survives the episode, it seems likely, but I doubt he will.

It does seem a little *too* obvious, but I sort of like the idea that we’d have GangerDoctor running around the universe with his own agenda. Add that to the fact that he survives for 200 years … presumably outliving the eleventh incarnation of the Doctor, which opens things up for the twelfth Doctor to interact with the ganger of his former self. Which would be quite interesting.

[hummingbird]

I’m spoiler free so I don’t know if this has been speculated already, but feel free to laugh and point if it has.

I’m just wondering if the fact that we now have a ganger of the Doctor explains who was killed in episode 1?

[hummingbird]

:P

[hummingbird]

> There’s a (P)siren in next week’s episode.

> The ouroborous symbol. Add that to the list.

Just pointing out that both of these ideas pre-date both RD and DW by quite a bit, actually.

[hummingbird]

> Imelda Staunton’s character is brilliant. I just wanted to say that.

Her character is by far the most interesting so far.

I’m starting to be a little disappointed that the old characters aren’t being developed further. But I expect that’s probably the point, as the idea seems to be to kill them all off one by one.

[hummingbird]

After last week being a bit of a disappointment, that was absolutely bloody marvellous.
So may things to love that I don’t know where to start.

Want.

[hummingbird]

I keep meaning to do a complete rewatch, but it’s a hell of a lot of episodes.
I suppose you could do a season per week if you put your mind to it, but I just don’t have that many hours to spare.

Nice find.

Some good advice for Redhead85 here: http://www.freddyfruitcake.co.uk/site.html

[hummingbird]

I enjoyed that immensely. Loved Jeremy and silent singer. David and Maureen were wonderful as always. I agree entirely that Joy can’t really be dead – no way.
It’s going to interesting to see where the whole Grace Andrews thing goes.

[hummingbird]

F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 …. oooooooh! Nice.

> Why has Dirk Maggs written a new radio show based on Douglas Adams’s novels,
> rather than USING THE RADIO SHOW WRITTEN BY DOUGLAS ADAMS?

WTF? I was just about to get ridiculously excited.

[hummingbird]

Have you considered the middle name ‘Judas’?

[hummingbird]

> Anyone who thought that was anything other than brilliant is clearly a twat.

This.

[hummingbird]

> No-one should put money in their mouth, it’s DIRTY! You never know where it’s been!

I know where *my* mouth has been. ;-)

[hummingbird]

So, has he published that book yet?

[hummingbird]

> Yeah, it’s not really a proper forum, so we don’t really have fancy shit like that.

Yeah, it’s rubbish.

[hummingbird]

Gwynnie, if this was about research then I wouldn’t have a problem with it. :-/

[hummingbird]

But it’s not about scientific endeavour, is it? I’m all for scientific endeavour in all of it’s shapes and forms. But we already know that man can go into space. It’s been done.

This represents an enormous waste of resources, both in monetary and scientific terms, that ultimately benefits nobody but the super-rich acting out their boyhood fantasies for their own indulgence.

[hummingbird]

Here is the news: Rich twats get richer as other rich twats go into space, just, y’know, because they feel like it.
And meanwhile, in the rest of the world, half the planet is starving and there’s still no cure for AIDS.

” …. a selection of the site’s best articles since 2003. It’s really good, honest. Only £5. And it’s got Iain Lee in it. Alright, then, I’ll make it 2 for £8. Please …?”

[hummingbird]

The fact that Doug still won’t give any hints about the movie script shows (I hope) that he still hasn’t given up on it, so I’d like to see that script filmed before the show finally ends. I’m not optimistic enough to presume that they’d ever raise the money to do a full-blown movie, but if they had the means to make a feature-length TV movie then that would be nice.

[hummingbird]

> If you’re coming to DJ, Doug will be bringing clips of the pilot to show on Sunday.

Oooooooh!

[hummingbird]

> You can all be a right fucking cynical lot sometimes.

“sometimes” ..?

[hummingbird]

>> FUN FACT: Iain Lee slightly features in this project (not personally, though, that would be hideous).

You’re obviously obsessed. I think you have a little crush.

Ladies, calling Iain Lee a cunt is *so* 2009.
