On Doctor Who 2022

[danieldwilliam]

Andrew Rilstone appears to have pulled his blog post on Doctor Who's Christmas Special. I was going to link to it but now can't.

For a long time I've struggled with Doctor Who. I've struggled with Moffat and the lack of narrative.  I don't have much confidence that the new head writer will be any better than Moffat

Now seems like a good time to take a break. Perhaps that break will be long, perhaps permanent. Perhaps, if the reviews are surprisingly good,  as Rilstone suggested in his now lost blog, I can watch all of Whitaker's episodes on Netflix over Christmas 2022. I expect she'll have quit by then.

But I'm quitting now.

EDIT:

The original Andrew Rilstone blog post is now back up. It may have been re-drafted a bit since I read it.

I believe MLW reads his other books.

The Rivers of London books are excellent - I've recommended them to many people and have yet to find anyone who didn't enjoy them.

IIRC correctly I bought the first one as a present for MLW and I think she's reading one of the later ones at the moment.

I only know this because she is actually reading a hardcopy book rather than a book on her Kindle.

(Note to self, get round to setting up some sort of Kindle sharing functionality.)
