Last night, the Doctor was “in,” for our discussion of “City of Death” (1979) on Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner. I even donned my 19-foot “Doctor Who” scarf, knitted for me by my aunt as a Christmas gift in 1984. (Apparently Tom Baker’s was only 18 feet, but this was before people could confirm such things on the internet.) I also recollected a tiny TARDIS given to me by my sister. While not exactly a Whovian, 38 years ago, I suppose I did have the hair.
All in all, not a bad show for two casual “Who” watchers, thanks in part to the lively viewer comments and an unexpected visit by the “Chat Girls.”
I hope you’ll join us next week for a special holiday edition, and our memories of the family classic “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” (1968), based on the book by Bond-creator Ian Fleming. Sing along in the comments section, when we livestream on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter (if it still exists), next Friday evening at 7:30 EST!
