On Peter Capaldi as the Doctor

"Malcolm Tucker IS Dr Who!" (Watch on YouTube)

Hm, though this is hilarious, I do find myself contemplating the fact that this is the first time we've really had a Doctor who's previously pretty much typecast by a previous character - at least since Sgt Major Hartnell...

And if we were to think of recasting the Master to match Capaldi

Can I just start the campaign for (aside from keeping Simm, which would be best) Aiden Gillen as a suitable opposite for Capaldi...

Music Monday - shall we have some Annie Lennox?

Yeah...

Did you know Peter Capaldi had an Oscar?

Neither did I, but he does...

Music Monday - more Annie Lennox

I actually find this one almost impossible to listen to now, because I made the mistake of mainlining it on the day of my mother's funeral. But it's still a classic.
