Steve Dimopoulos: “New Zealand has had Treaty with Māori for 185 years, and these people on that side of the parliament are gonna make us think it’s controversial. Give me a break!”

More of this, Labor.

Next year is going to involve a lot of tearing Treaty down, make sure you’re standing for it.

To be blunt, I had no excitement for this, until I hit play just now.

Not sure why I didn’t care, but it’s hitting me now that we have a new show in the Doctor Who world, brought to us by the producer trio who revived Who 20 years ago, and staring great actors.

Plus Lorne Balfe composing.

I haven’t watched the sequels to Pirates of the Caribbean in years (more than a decade), but my god Dead Man’s Chest has an amazing score!

Enjoying David Tennant’s first performance in Doctor Who.

No, not as The Doctor, as a Nazi acting opposite the 7th Doctor, Sylvester McCoy.

100 days of 12,000+ steps in a row (sometimes well over 12,000).

Pretty proud of this.

Doctor Who: Dreamtime from Big Finish Productions.

Another in a long list of stories from around the world where, if you’re going to tell a Blackfulla story, with Blackfulla Culture and words, hire a Blackfulla writer to do it.

Good performances and sound design, though.

Part of today’s Christmas themed viewing.

Starting strong, very strong, one of my all time favourites.

It’s a 12 year tradition of mine to change my profile picture to this.

I’m one to keep something like that going.

Christmas is my favourite.

Hell yeah.

An ‘Australia mentioned!’ moment in a Doctor Who audio adventure from Big Finish.

Tony Dalton would make a spectacular Master on #DoctorWho.

My annual Hawkeye rewatch begins.

I just love this show.

It’s just so feel good!

The festive season is here.

Even now I welled up filming this.

Beautiful scene.

I love that, even during the climax of the action in one of the most epic #DoctorWho episodes, which was shown in cinemas across the globe, there’s a shot of two of Matt Smith’s script on the TARDIS console.

(Sorry for pointing it out, Matt! Love you!)

Time to mark the 62nd Doctor Who anniversary with a special episode that turns 12 today.

Probably still my favourite episode, it’s just so well done. Equal parts reverential and dramatic - John Hurt portrays the tragedy of The War Doctor, and the relief at the end of - so well.

Just wonderful.

I did a thing today.

Doing the world a favour.

I recently added this piece of majestic storytelling to my physical media collection in preparation for today.

It’s probably still my favourite episode.

And it’s fitting to watch it on the anniversary, because it’s such a celebration!

Expanded my Pratchett collection with Kirby covers (I insist on getting them!) earlier today.

I love Discworld.
