ICYMI. I piece together what's going on in But He's a Lord, Mr Callan, the final missing episode from Callan's first series.
Gambling, blackmail, cheats and betrayal. Just an ordinary week with the Section...

My favourite obituary of anyone ever.
Patrick Macnee: greatest role model for men. Brought up by lesbians who treated him as a girl, became the archetype of the English gentleman. Enthusiastically hetero but always respectful of &deferential to women. Was upbraiding co-star Ian Hendry for homophobia back in the 60s

Cocktails, chocolate and Genesis of the Daleks for me this evening!
The first episode is stunning. The location filming is wonderfully atmospheric - the bombardment, the mist, that slight background whistling - and it feels so horribly brutal so quickly. Yes, I like my grimness.

Patrick Macnee would have been 100 years old today. Here is one of the most magnificent obituaries ever.

Finished my rewatch of Series 1 of 1990 tonight and decided it’s still brilliant. I’m looking forward to cracking on with Series 2. I’ve realised what great pleasure I get from 1970s’ dystopias. Might have to start piling them up.

Sad to hear of Stephen Greif’s passing. He had a wonderful presence and his voice was a delight to listen to (I recommend

’s Outlaw). He was a charming gentleman who readily heaped due praise on colleagues. I love this beautiful photo of him during a theatre rehearsal.

This must be the first broadcast of this episode since it original went out. I’ll never stop harping on about how Goodnight Sweetheart should have been given a new series from this. They could still do it!
Gary Sparrow has been trapped in the past for 17 years, but his decision to witness his own birth sees him catapulted into 2016.

Part Two of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy tonight.

Proper love the new TARDIS. I like its cleanness, its oneness, its relative simplicity. It feels fresh and sleek. It’s enormous! I can’t believe they made it that bloody big! I love the colour palette that harks back to 20th century Who. It’s gorgeous.

Completed my Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy rewatch.

It’s still so wonderful: gripping, full of interesting characters I love, a world you want to spend more time exploring, and lovely snapshots of the 1970s.

I’m sure plenty of us have thought about it, but few have actually attempted to follow in Tom’s footsteps. Magnificent.
Is Soho dead? To find out, I decided to replicate Tom Baker’s famous Sunday Times Life In A Day, in which he engages in a 15 (ish) hour pub and restaurant crawl through golden era Soho. Could it still be done? More pertinently, could I hack it? 👇

It’s now £18 for a standard adult ticket at my local cinema (Odeon). We begrudgingly paid £14 last year, but I can’t imagine there being any film I’d want to see at the cinema enough to pay £18. That’s a shame.

Hi, I'm Hannah. I'm 27, I began watching Doctor Who in 2005 and have never had enough shelf space since. It taught me what CSO is and that black and white telly can be very good. It has led me to lots of other interesting telly and nice people.
