TV

Doctor Who
3x30 The Celestial Toyroom
aka The Celestial Toymaker Part 1. With all the rumours about the Toymaker’s forthcoming return, I thought it was about time I watched his debut (and, so far, only televisual) appearance. Of course, I can’t properly watch it because it’s 75% missing, so the Loose Cannon recon will have to suffice.

Michael Grade in Conversation
The other interview I was referring to yesterday. It’s thorough enough that you feel there’s nothing left to be said, but it also doesn’t feel like there’s anything significantly new here. Interviewer Matthew Sweet does his best to draw out the whole truth and nothing but the truth, but it becomes clear that Grade didn’t care enough about Doctor Who to remember all the nitty-gritty details. So that’s that, then.
