    Classic Doctor Who (1963-89/96)

    Tommy B. was legendary when a prop or guest cast or the DW crew pissed him off = see The Invisible Enemy and "How am i supposed to act against a f*cking prawn?!" and following that by immediately belting out a parody of Born Free called Prawn Free.

    What Are You Listening To Or Watching Now??!!

    Two young children and a horse feature in a GDR children's drama on 18th October 1989. The program was going out live to air across East Germany -- as any director would state, a risky strategy with children and animals. The date is significant as it was the same day Erich Honecker was removed...

    Lewis’s actual views on Islam?

    The most interesting propaganda by the useful idiots for Hamas and the PLO and other assorted Islamists/Arab nationalists in the last several weeks is the claim that the Palestinian Arabs are "the indigenous people of the area". Um, their ancestors conquered the area in the 7th century. They are...

    Classic Doctor Who (1963-89/96)

    I apologise. I am no Green or socialist - I am a proud member of the ALP Right - a faction dominated by hard-boiled pragmatists. At most, Holmes can be rebuked for uncritical acceptance of stereotypes.

    Classic Doctor Who (1963-89/96)

    Ace from the McCoy era (1987-89) - the street-wise juvenile delinquent... but who sounded like the Grange Hill pisstake in The Young Ones ("C'mon, Mister Liberal! We're the only kids in the country who never say fu-")

    Lewis’s actual views on Islam?

    The Jewish god is the same as the Christian god as Christianity was originally a heretical sect of Judaism and it only really separated after the fall of the Second Temple in 70 AD. So was Islam.

    Lewis’s actual views on Islam?

    (Disclaimer: My half-family is Jewish) The caricature of Lewis's personality and outlook by his modern far-left critics is this: But the willingness of most of them in the last three months to excuse the 7/10 pogrom (including atrocities against INFANTS) shows the critics themselves to be this:

    Lewis’s actual views on Islam?

    Without Judaism there would be no Christianity or Islam as both began as heretical cults from Judaism.

    Why Were Edmund and Lucy Too Old?

    OT: I was trying to think of an actual 1940s kid actress who could play Lucy in a fantasy Golden Age adaption of "Wardrobe" How about her as Lucy is blonde in the books:

    Why Were Edmund and Lucy Too Old?

    Aslan - and by extention - Lewis - ignores that when you are in effect a prisoner and angry and afraid, you are not that willing to show restraint - the maid wasn't the one trapped- and she was seemingly happy to obey her horrible employers. Granted we are only hearing about the maid second hand...

    Why Were Edmund and Lucy Too Old?

    I think CS Lewis would have seen 2023 in the same way as the first Doctor saw 1963:

    Why Were Edmund and Lucy Too Old?

    I always thought Aslan was a bit of a jerk - specially as he mauls Aravis's back for something an immature and impulsive teen could not have foreseen - the lashing of her family's female servant. Heck plenty of adults don't bother to game out the consequences of their actions - see this...

    Merging The Narnia Series With Unrelated Books

    I kind of wonder how Sophie Cook's kids would have felt waking up in BBC Narnia and having to go through the serials as Susan and Edmund (or Lucy and Edmund in VOTDT - and Jill and Eustace in BBC TSC) - although for a kiggles scenario, maybe not in the matching character genders ala the Jumanji...

    Merging The Narnia Series With Unrelated Books

    The parodical stereotype version of William Shatner, Paul Robeson, Paul Lynde, and Judge Doom (and only able to speak in his toon voice) are all sent to Narnia to play out the six books like it was a game of Jumanji. Please i hope for the love of Aslan, someone here knows why it is that I am...

    Sixteen years in TDL (and the disappointment)

    To Ck-Oakenshield and his/her/their friends on the left: There is stupid, and there is very stupid, and then there is... this stupid - a "queer Jew" supporting a "free Palestine." What exactly would a "free Palestine" be free of? It would certainly be free of Jews, since the Palestinian...

    Classic Doctor Who (1963-89/96)

    Troughton does actually fluff his lines more often than you realize - on *many* occasions what he says bears little relation to the script. Troughton forgot his lines but was a better ad-libber to cover it. However - examine a Season One Hartnell - 'The Aztecs' which had very few or no...
