Why do we all love Doctor Who so much?

There's so much fan experience that's the same but different for everyone. We're all fans but in different ways!

Come and hear the stories of Doctor Who fandom and the shared history of us all in The Library of Impossible Things.

FRIDAY : the trial of Flux reaches it’s conclusion with The Vanquishers going before the court, with guests @strangerscast.bsky.social’s J.R. Southall and @markdonaldson.bsky.social. But is it guilty or not guilty of crimes against #DoctorWho? Send us your thoughts for Viewer Evidence!

Tonight was the last episode of Secret Army. The ending with Monique choking on the song and running away really got me this time. What a series! What a joy to rewatch it.

Adding my own harmonies while listening to Together Alone by Crowded House, and wondering if Jeff Lynne would like to supervise a new mix of the album.

So, we all know that the second recording block of Shada was cancelled due to strike action - but the sets were planned out in full... What would it have looked like? Wonder no more!
TC6, 19th November 1979. #DoctorWho #CGSets
A CG recreation of the TARDIS interior from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows the central console in a grey room with roundels on the walls and a blue CSO cloth used as the TARDIS' scanner screen. The K9 robot dog prop sits on the floor. A CG recreation of the Krarg spaceship interior from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows grey walls with a yellow chain pattern, and grey columns. At the front is a monitor screen, with Skagra's grey mind-stealing sphere on a dais in front of it. A CG recreation of the Krarg spaceship corridors from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows grey walls with a yellow chain pattern, and grey columns. The corridor sweeps around to the right. In the foreground, an out-of-place wooden door is embedded into a wall: the entrance into Chronotis' TARDIS. A CG recreation of the set layout from Doctor Who's Shada, from above. It shows several sets: the TARDIS interior, with an adjoining workship area, Chris Parson's laboratory, and the composite Krarg spaceship set, with control room, corridors and a Krarg generation vat.

'Oh, undergraduates talking to each other, I expect. I've trying to have it banned.' This is Shada, in TC3, 3rd November 1979. #DoctorWho #CGSets
A CG recreation of Professor Chronotis' room from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows the TARDIS police box standing in a wood-panelled study, lined with bookshelves. A CG recreation of the spaceship cell from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows a grey and white, three-walled room, with the fourth wall open to camera. There are no doors. A CG recreation of two sets from Doctor Who's Shada in studio. It shows Professor Chronotis' wood-panelled study, alongside the grey control room on the Thinktank space station. This shows a central console with a number of reclined seats built around it. A CG recreation of the studio from Doctor Who's Shada. It shows the sets for the Thinktank control room, the Professor's study, the spaceship cell, and the Krarg generation chamber: a vat which is able to rise from a horizontal to vertical position. There is also a large area set aside for blue-screen work, with blue floor and wall cloths.

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.
