Well, I reckon this is rollicking, roistering fun! I may need to go to Avebury tomorrow, though. Don't come back smiling! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

There's got to be a joke about 'Dai another day' in there somewhere. Judging from your post, no there isn't Harsh. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I'm worn out. I'm going to stick 'Out of the Blue' on. (OSP will understand that reference.) |

Is it 3 episodes next week? That may, quite literally, be too much for me. |

Right - have we settled on going for a hat trick of episodes next week or not? Do we need to tell TT that the people have spoken? |

I am going to mention the 3 episodes and the breaks in between during Tuesday's rewatch so we get a consensus of opinion before the event. High on a hill is a lonely sarsen, ladle-odle ladle-odle... Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Just quickly - what a great rewatch yesterday! Have just had a glance back over it. Some very funny comments that I missed during the hubbub!! Avon walking out of the shower Dallas-style.... Priceless. Regarding future rewatches, it occurred to me - as CotS is going so well - that the nearest equivalent I can think of (spooky village, paganism, odd locals, general weirdness, morris dancing, the Master in a dog collar) is the Dr Who 'Daemons' story I mentioned a while back. Maybe worth slotting that in, post-Eurovision, if people are in a CotS frame of mind??? Lots of second-hand DVDs on Amazon for a fiver-ish. |

Personally, I think it's only fair that we back up something with Blake in it with Servalan's ' Moondial' epic BBC children's serial from 1988. It requires about the same level of intelligence as CotS, though with slightly better costumes and effects. And JP, of course. Unfortunately, I haven't yet found anywhere that we can stream the whole thing for free. Any ideas? In the yawning gap this creates, I repeat my earlier statement, ie I'd watch anything with Roger Delgado as The Master, even if it is DW. But isn't Quatermass supposed to come next? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Professor Quatermass and I are besties, of course - plus there's scandalously little good telly these days on experimental rocketry. So an imminent Quatermass binge sounds brilliant. I was thinking about after that, but can get behind 'Moondial' under duress. |

Btw which Quatermass? At first I read that as Mister James, then I twigged. A mahoosive 'yes' to those! Absolutely awesome! As for Quatermass, what do you think? I suppose it depends on what people have in their DVD collections and what's freely available online. I've got the first three movies on DVD; Q1 and Q2 look like they're on YouTube, but not the Pit. TV-wise, Q2 is on YouTube but only two episodes of Q1, and again I can't see the Pit. Moving on to Q4 from 1979, I can only find episodes 3 & 4 and no sign of the movie version. |

Here's my daft thought for the morning. If 'Daemons' comes off at some stage, well - it was filmed at Aldbourne which is less than 15 miles from Avebury. Do Horizon still do location visits?? Double bubble (toil and trouble)? #JustSayin' |

There are bits of Q on daily motion but they are all 1. Jumbled 2. Massacred. But I think I spotted Q2 intact and possibly Q the tv series made into a movie. But that's only trying by the English titles....

I think, hypothetically, we could do a fair bit better than that tbh. Do we know yet how many episodes we're doing on Thursday or are we just winging it? Will our capacity to subject ourselves to Episode 7 depend on how traumatised we are by Episodes 5 & 6? |

OK, I'll assume it's just eps 5 & 6 as originally planned and I can make other plans for nine o'clock. |

So,are we doing episodes 5 and 6 tonight? On this thread or another?> I think the aim is to rip through the last three episodes of the series tonight if people are up for it. That would mean wrapping up by about ten past nine. Might be better than the anti-climax of just a single episode next week. Is that a runner for you? If the new thread doesn't appear by half-seven, maybe M1 can do the honours (just to remind us who's in charge...) |
