Has anyone here read the About Time books by Lawrence Miles and Tat Wood? They're all about the classic series, and I'm just amazed by the amount of information that goes into every episode.

I've written Smallville companions, but they've got NOTHING on how thorough the About Time books are.

Here's a link to check them out:

The sixth book, covering the eras of the Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Doctors, comes out in December. Still, if you want to read about the old stuff, you really can't go wrong there.

I sinned this week with my DVD habit. Had £35 left to spend on DVDs - so either The Time Warrior and one or two more older releases, or Galactica Season 3.

I went for Galactica. :O

I used to do that. Then I went bankrupt with £58000 debt.

Not a mistake to do again ;)

we'll start with kansas. I want to build an actual smallville and have people move in on the condition that they change their names to people in the comic. And then, we'll turn the moon into new gallifrey.

*cough* and now...back to sanity

If we all think of Clark Kent at the same time can we stop the Master's control and turn our protagonist away from looking like Gollum?

Nah... that's a stupid idea.

Funny thing is, if I'd told you that would have been the conclusion five months ago, I KNOW you would have IMed me with a cyber punch and the words "dude...eff off." rofl
