>very few exceptions (mostly arising from disease, illness or religious mania of one sort or another)

Well she now seems to be edging into religious mania and there's plenty of scurrilous rumours to cover the disease angle even if she's not a mentalist

Nice to see bribery doesn't always work.

Oh and the following really made my heart blead:

"New reports today said that Hilton's health collapse last week was caused by dehydration.

"She didn't eat or drink a single thing for three days because she didn't want to use the toilet," a source also told the New York Daily News, adding that Hilton suffered from claustrophobia and hyperventilation.

"She was absolutely terrified that one of the guards or staffers would get her with the cellphone cam and it would wind up on the Internet," a source identified as a Hilton insider told the newspaper.

"She cried the entire time, and that wasn't helping the dehydration," the source told the paper."

Several years back at a Uni reunion I got talking to a guy who was a couple of years older than me and was a pretty well qualified specialist doctor. I mentioned something about something on television and he expressed scorn that I would bother watching television. I went on to say that certain programs were as good as a novel or film (ie The Sopranos, I didn't mention Neighbours). He said he never bothered with either of those as well, or the internet. I then asked him want the  hell he did with his evenings. "Play a bit on the Playstation" was his reply.

And the last time I was in the dentist he made a big thing of asking me about the book I was reading whilst waiting to go in, and fact I was reading at the last check up (like six months before). I sort of assume from that that it's a bit of a novelty.

I think the mentalist bloke was taking the piss... or he might just be a true nutter. According to the commentator on the footage I saw he was at the Wacko trail.

I'm a bit gob-smacked by the photographer thing. What's even more freaky is that they were taken exactly 35 years apart, TO THE DAY!!!

I read far too many Tom Clancy novels in the hope he'd suddenly write a good one again. They are very readable and slip down well despite being utter nonsense. Luckily the last couple I read (and one was practically a re-write of the other) were so stupid it cured me.

There's a bit where Romana said it weights like 60 zillion kilos or something but that's clearly rubbish as its been shifted about by a few people on more than one occasion

The Tardis can adjust its weight to suite the local gravity and surface of wherever it materialises... ie has heavy as the scriptwriters want it to be.

>Is it my imagination or do I remember as a kid there was a big labyrinth INSIDE the Tardis where people got lost?

It was in Invasion of Time. I feel like some sort of ubergeek knowing that.

Oh yeah, my heart sank when I saw the preview: back to normal then, I thought.

The best of the season so far, but what I expected from Moffat. There were a few plot holes which kind of stopped making it as good as it could have been.

One of my personal irritations kicked in with the crap-looking stone (of the angels), which always looks rubbish in telly nowadays like cheap Styrofoam (see every grave in every soap for the last ten years).

What was the t-shirt slogan? I expect there's some on ebay already.

Oh and 'timey-wimey', fuck off.

hey just because somethings no on google news, at all don't mean it's just some bullshit. It could be true, in an alternate universe or something.

Anyway Indigo children are allowed to make shit up, or spout off the first thing that comes into their heads - it's part of them being special like them being able to push to the front of queues and that.

Bow down to your indigo masters, oh little people!
