#popmaster Wondering if I could have got away with 'Criticize', 'Fake' and 'Fake 88'... (Simon Mayo would be making a joke about him bothering to turn up here, too.)

@TheMestor It's weird that they say the journey will take 8 months, though. I don't know how much of that time is implied to have passed in 'Space Fall', but I am guessing not a lot. That will be a lot of games of Space Monopoly for Blake, Jenna and Avon before they reach Cygnus Alpha!

@TheMestor I saw it when young but didn't appreciate it fully, then saw the edited UK Gold repeats in the 90s. Watched it all the way through on DVD a few years back. It's very good (mostly)!

Philip H gets the very rare accolade of being a behind-the-camera person to appear on a @DWMtweets cover. JN-T got a full cover when he died, but even an inset like this is vanishingly rare -- I don't recall even any of the three modern showrunners getting one. #DoctorWho

Delighted to hear that 'prat' is Word of the Year. It's about time such a lighthearted insult, prevalent in the 80s/90s but not heard so much today, was rehabilitated. What a perfect word for describing mild acts of idiocy with a degree of world-weary criticism... .... What?

#popmaster What did Sheryl say about that Queen one? Was she implying it was a bit of a... 'Point Assister'?!

Oh, good lord. #DoctorWho friends. Looking to see if next Chronicles is due any time soon and... instead, there's this. I don't *need* this, do I?... Do I?... Will it tell me anything new? Gah. Bet it will, that's the annoying thing. Oh, take my twenty quid, Panini, you scamps.

Didn't this person use to be known as 'Puff Daddy'? And then 'P Diddy'? And now apparently he's just 'Diddy'. The logical extension of this is that he will be known as 'Did' in a year or two, and then he will have enough names to be an #onlyconnect clue.

Damn, I said 'I Who Have Nothing' for the Whitney song. I wonder if Ken would have let me have it, seeing as that's a different song...? #popmaster

@jamiesmart I think that if they did, someone would start singing House of Pain at them.
