Doctor Who: The Legacy of Time
Part 5 The Avenues of Possibility

It’s funny that Part 1 of this box set seems to the best regarded, because I thought it was a bit clunky and awkward and padded and I generally didn’t really care for it all that much, whereas I’ve largely enjoyed every episode since. Maybe I just needed to get my ear in and I should give it another chance? Maybe it’s just that tastes differ. Anyway, hopefully the finale (up next) is good too.

Fiction

The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman
Chapters 95–101

Comics

2000 AD #2349

If I'd read this issue on Friday (as I planned), I could've said that I'd finally caught up, after seven months of working on it. But that would've been short-lived anyway, because Prog 2350 arrived Saturday morning — so I'm behind again. (Sort of: it's not officially out 'til Wednesday; getting it early is just a subscriber perk.)

Well, that's how it goes — there's always more to come. And besides, I've still got a small pile of Regened issues to go back to, so technically I wouldn't've been fully up-to-date anyway. I'll feel able to start my American comics eventually...

this week on 100Films.co.uk

A mid-month update from 100Films.co.uk!? What's going on?! Well, no new reviews, for starters, just a bit of a musing on the state of things...


What a waste of a week

I’ve just left one job and am about to start another, with (to quote myself) “a small amount of time off in between”. That was 11 days, to be precise, which are now coming to an end. My plan for that time had been to “cram a bunch of films in… I’ve certainly got plenty that I want to catch up on.”

Dear reader, I have not crammed. In fact, I have watched… just checking my notes, adding them all up… one (1) film.

Look, for once it’s not my fault...

More next Sunday, maybe. But probably not.
