I'm not sure, but it's the small bit I was talking about. I completely forgot it was John Hurt instead of Christopher Eccleston! And sure, I'll count Fiveish. Four times in all. Shame we didn't get more on-screen action.

Thanks! Only three times. At least he got all the audios.

I can't find a good thread for this, so I'm going to ask here. How many TV stories did Paul McGann star in? There was the TV movie, that one small bit where he regenerates at the end, what else? No, I'm not counting Shada. Only live action stories. The question popped into my head the other day and refuses to leave.

Absolutely not!

Just a further thought about Battlefield. I somehow imagine future redhead Merlin Doctor to have a Welsh accent. Not super strong, but noticeable. Even though Wales has plenty more than just Arthurian mythology, I remember someone getting grumpy with me about Wales = magic.

You should! And of course, Battlefield is why I'll always ant the next Doctor to be a redhead. :)

Been a long time since I watched Battlefield, but I remember the novelisation being great!

Question for foreigners, and by that I mean non-Australians. Do you have surf lifesaving helicopters patrolling your beaches on weekends with nice weather?

He looks like he could give a good tug at any moment and drag her along with him. But he's well behaved? Nice to hear. :)

Who is taking who for a walk?

Yes, certainly some of them. And those who don't actually care about Narnia and are just looking for an excuse to whine about woke.

An unusual choice, but I'm curious. We'll see.

I might have just solved a musical mystery for myself! For a long time, when I listened to Clubbed to Death, I sort of imagined lyrics in the second half, "Ride the horses" several times. Anyway, last night I was listening to This is the Way by Circulus. And guess what? Ride the horses! Is that where I got it from?

In surprising news, Meryl Streep is in talks for Greta Gerwig's upcoming Narnia adaptation. Jadis? Maybe the Lady of the Green Kirtle? Old Susan? No, no, and no. Hang on, Aslan? Yes, seriously. Not who I would pick, but it's not up to me. At this point I'm still intrigued, it'll take more than that to put me off. Also Daniel Craig and Charli XCX. He's a solid pick and I don't know her work, but sure.

Love it! Also, I'm not so up on my DC heroes, but is that Guy Gardener and Hawkwoman? Supergirl will be in this too. I'm a bit concerned that this'll be less a Superman movie and suffer the 'setting things up for the whole series' kind of movie. No. Give me a good Superman movie and I'll trust you to deliver something good again. You can't just endlessly sizzle and say 'next time will be the sausage.'
