travellin' at the speed of liiiight  
I. I spent most of the last two-three days watching The Thick of It on papilio_luna's suggestion and ended up really enjoying it. I've just finished series 3 so I guess all that is left is the Christmas special. I think s3 wound up being my favourite because Nicola cracks me up more than Hugh did. Anyway, it's quite hilarious in a really dry, profane, British way. Working for four months in the communications directorate of a government department probably helped a bit. For some reason lacunaz I think you would really enjoy it.

II. I have a cold. It is the summer. There should be some kind of law against that.

III. Omg I have been having the worst writer's block for like, months now. I also, um, mostly forgot about femgenficathon, which starts posting tomorrow I think. OOPS. Ugh brain. Why won't you woooork. This is not really related to anything, I just wanted to whine.

IV. Day 08 - A Who-Related Photo That Makes You Happy



PARTY ON THE TARDIS AND EVERYONE'S INVITED. Nothing can convince me they didn't have a rocking party before everyone went back home. It happened, okay.

And on a semi-related note:



As the end of s5 drew nearer and we knew for sure Karen Gillan was staying, I was sort of grumpily thinking "that is only acceptable if she is with Rory, hmph". And lo! Apparently Arthur's name will come out of the Vortex at Christmas and everything. Huzzah!

Dry British humour? I'M SO THERE BYE

Oh wait Arthur is confirmed to have vortex-name status? YESSSSSSS! I am so pleased with Eleven/Amy/Rory Team TARDIS, as you know. This action had better carry over to S6.

If you look in my last locked post you may find ...helpful things.

I read an article about it a little while ago that was about how he's been bumped up to official companion status for the Christmas special & s6. It also suggested there might be a 4th Team TARDIS member at some point in s6. I don't know if that means River or not.

How... very helpful. Why the internet is being rather helpful today.

LOL OKAY THREE EPISODES A SEASON? AND HALF HOUR LONG? I honestly thought that was a mistake or just a teaser or something. I am just sitting here laughing because you are hilarious, British television.

Yessss this is joyous news, I expect the married couple dynamic will be interesting.

LOL RIGHT ME TOO. I was like "okay Britain I know you are weird but three episodes to a season cannot be true". I stand corrected. S3 was a whole eight episodes and I liked it the most.

lol I am not sure how well Moffat will write a married couple, but I will be cautiously optimistic until it happens.

LOOK HOW PRESH RORY IS IN THAT PICTURE OMG

I just want to squish his little face.

I almost used the one where Amy is wearing the top hat but both Rory and the Doctor look so comically out of it in that photo LIRL

I love the party in the TARDIS photo. AND I LOVE HOW ROSE IS BETWEEN DOCTOR AND DOCTOR.5 BECAUSE THEY LOVE HER

AND YAY FOR RORY GETTING SCREEN CREDIT NEXT SEASON!!! That's like, my favorite news so far.
Kali: dw :: team tardis :: OMG YAY_thirty2flavors on July 15th, 2010 01:28 am (UTC)
LOL THE FIRST TIME I SAW JE I WAS SO EXCITED BY ROSE BEING BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM. And then butthurt that they didn't hug.

Same! I fully support Rory's upgrade to proper companion status.

And then butthurt that they didn't hug.

Might have been tricky to edit that, but I understand the sentiment.

I wonder... was it a conscious decision on RTD, the director, or DT & BP's part? OR all three?

Rory companion status makes me giddy. Because he's awesome. And because Eleven loves him.
Kali: dw :: cloen :: hee!_thirty2flavors on July 15th, 2010 05:43 am (UTC)
OH I just meant a Rose/Doctor (either Doctor) hug in general, instead of... Rose and Jackie. I know they filmed one, I've seen pictures, it ust didn't make the cut.

Haha I think it was probably a conscious choice anyway because they would've had to position the... Ten double (Colin... something...?) in a way where you couldn't see that he, um, wasn't David Tennant.

HE TOTALLY DOES. GUY LOVE.
turtle_goose: DW: Companionsturtle_goose on July 15th, 2010 06:12 am (UTC)
I know they filmed one, I've seen pictures, it just didn't make the cut.

WHY WOULD YOU FILM A DOCTOR/ROSE HUG AND NOT USE IT??? WHY??? WHY WAS MY NINE/ROSE "DALEK" HUG CUT???

HE TOTALLY DOES. GUY LOVE.

I'm SO hoping that Matt and Arthur really play it up in S6 (and the Christmas Special). Because they all ready do it on set:

Arthur: Have they got enough ice left for your chin, mate?
Matt: Dunno, I think they used it all up on your nose.

WE NEED MORE OF THIS IN SERIES 6 - ON SCREEN!!!

I do love that Team TARDIS picture from Journey's End. AWW TEN'S LAST MOMENT OF HAPPINESS BEFORE HE DIES. :D
Kali: dw :: team tardis :: the gang's all here_thirty2flavors on July 15th, 2010 05:39 am (UTC)
LOL YEP. ENJOY IT TEN. IT IS ALL DOWNHILL FROM THERE.

lol, I was also going to use the Martha/Rose hug, but couldn't find a screenshot and was too lazy to take one myself.

People keep telling me I should watch The Thick Of It. I'm assuming it's good then if you can marathon-watch it :D
