If you’ve never tried one before I highly recommend the Jacquie Lawson digital Advent Calendars. Every years you are immersed in a whole world full of games and activities and animations. You have your own house you can decorate and there’s a town to explore.

Quote from Leslie just now - “Little did I know when I was 18 and hearing about how Jes burnt her leg making beans on toast in Bend it Like Beckham that one one day I would live in the UK and make beans on toast”
Personally I can’t stand beans on toast but I’m happy Leslie feels at home here

- driven mad in battle after the loss of his lord(s?)
- from one of the fallen kingdoms of the old North
- (also half-human on his mother’s side, although this isn’t relevant to my point)

My headcanon is shortly after Battlefield Seven goes "huh, that hasn't happened yet" and just makes it happen, so it's him that sets the whole thing up. Very in character as well.
Accepting that it could still be an unknown future incarnation which of the new series Doctors do you most think could have gone off on a side quest and become Merlin? My money is on Eleven

I tell you one thing I really miss about Woolworths. They did proper big boxes of assorted Christmas cards which were great cuz it meant you had tasteful nativity ones for your Nan and funny Santa in his boxer shorts for your mates and everything in between. Now you get 10 cards one theme in a box.

Probably 11. 15 would be interesting because he’d have to stay in character more. 13 unlikely but wearing a fake beard and putting on a deep voice while complaining to Yaz in her downtime is probably more silly than people are wanting but might work well on audio
