Run Boy Run

Doctor Who - Run Boy Run by Woodkid, edited by Wearer Of The Cheese. Running is a victory

I have now played C7's Doctor Who second edition

Attaching But and And to the yes and No of the dice through 1s and 6s is nice but means looking at the dice a moment longer. Not as many Traits overall makes the maths a wee bit faster but loses some player character distinctiveness.

Everything is possible

Including a trailer for the new series running to Changes by David Bowie.

Tosin Cole playing a time traveller again

Supacell (trailer and talk at Reactor) coming to Netflix in June, features Tosin Cole as a young man who finds himself jumping ahead in time and learns that his fiancée is about to die, and he can only save her by changing the future with the aid of a handful of other newly empowered people.

May 11th

With the first two episodes on iPlayer, and on Disney+ simultaneously.

I will be waiting for the actual telly, as my actual telly is bigger than the monitor I am looking at this on.

Doctor Who scripts online

Via Reactor, You can now read a whole lot of Doctor Who scripts courtesy of the BBC Writers’ Script Library. Over two hundred, including the recent specials, The Sarah Jane Adventures, Class, and the audition piece for the Fifteenth Doctor.

ROBIN We’ve got 100 seconds?!

THE DOCTOR And I will get you out.  You will go home.  And see your mum.  And your brother.  Okay?

ROBIN How d’you know about them?

THE DOCTOR They’re in your eyes.

Two hears beat as... let me start again.

101 TARDIS Quirks

101 TARDIS Quirks on RPGnet, more than 10% mine for the initial number but carrying on.

Started bizarrely with the thing where it needs to be given a puma, but most are milder. from the same poster, 7 (unpleasantly organic) is disturbing while 8 (really likes neutron stars) is adorable.

Three travellers

Since I’m doing Doctor Who revised first edition for the January Character Creation Challenge, I thought I should link them here.

Walker, Time Lord

Josh, busker

Amit, temporal physicist

Nine plots from David Bowie's The Buddha Of Suburbia

For David Bowie’s birthday, adventure hooks based on his studio albums’ song titles.

After album titles, ★, The Next Day, Reality, Heathen, Hours, Earthling and Outside...

If I do these annually I will retire before I get to the end. So since The Buddha Of Suburbia is under ten titles, expect another soon...

And as the soundtrack to the TV version of Hanif Kureishi’s novel it’s ;already been a BBC drama, so dodging that plot. (And Naveen Andrews would make a great Doctor.)

Buddha of Suburbia

The travellers return to find a philosopher as mayor their home town and people coming from far and wide to learn from him. Oh, and it’s one of the travellers, about five years old than he is currently.

Sex and the Church

The travellers have to help Abelard and Heloise escape some very disapproving church authorities backed by the Censors seeking to stifle inappropriate artistic expression throughout human history.

South Horizon

The sun rises in the south. This is concerning.

The Mysteries

A production of a new murder mystery play is interrupted by an actual murder. By laser beam.

Bleed Like a Craze, Dad

1981, and the most famous band in the world is Theda Bara, led by a self-proclaimed immortal vampire queen.

Strangers When We Meet

The Stranger meets an incarnation of herself that she doesn’t recognise.

Dead Against It

A new bypass goes too close to a stone circle and workers start dying horribly. Dangerously zealous protesters or disturbed ghosts?

Untitled No. 1

The travellers have to team up with the Dadaists to stop the Censors wiping out the 1920s.

Ian Fish, U.K. Heir

The travellers return to the present and the person on all the money looks totally unfamiliar. Who altered the line of succession and why? Also, if we have a King Ian, is this the Ianian era?

Happy New Year when the time comes!
