Bearing in mind that the Tardis can't 'beam' anything up as in Star Trek how do all the materials in it get there? Surely all the kit must get in through the front two doors. The logistics of this feet must be mind-blowing: the concrete pouring, steels, massive hardware, etc, etc, etc. All this through those two doors at the front?

Aren't the inside and the outside in different dimensions? The exterior is supposed to be just a disguise, a way of fitting in with the local environment, so it won't attract attention, so maybe it doesn't exist outside the beholder's perception.


I'm seeing my nephew tomorrow and Dr Who is his mastermind subject so I'll ask him.

Different dimensions. I think, if I remember correctly, the doctor once explained the 'bigger on the inside' thing by holding up a small object that seemed much bigger than a much larger, further away object, showing that it was all 'relative' (i.e. the 'r' of TARDIS).


Or, as Father Ted did with cows, "Small. Far away". :o)

Oh dear


Obviously not a born in the womb die hard Doctor Who fan then


If you saw earlier episodes where the Tardis materialised around someone thus saving them from a threat, then you would have obviously put two and two together to understand that the Tardis can therefore do the same trick around Jewsons to pick up all the building materials they need


The more disturbing question to ask is where are the loos on the Tardis ? Not once does the Doctor land, say it's obviously the cybermen or Daleks and then let a little fear escape from his bottom before rushing off to relieve himself then save the universe

The first story and the Robin Hood one were genuine cack. Since then, though, it has picked up and is now looking back on form.


But, from my experience, there has always been a subset of Dr Who fans that think that the most current series is crap.

Don't think the people I'm talking about would fit that category, they're not hardcore. And the timescale you describe pretty much fits when I spoke to them.




I've always wanted to like it, but just never have really. The David Tennant / Billie Piper / Darlik / Cybermen thing was cool though.

Maybe they want a cuddly, friendly Doctor.



There is a bit of Malcolm Tucker going on now, so maybe fits with a more cynical generation.

    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who by moving to your position on the right are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
