TheGrumplemansCustoms

A selection of customs I did last year. Follow me to see more! And if you’re an actor whose ever been in Doctor Who… you may find yourself. #DoctorWho #doctorwhofigures

@josh_snares I don’t think that’s true you know. I see a lot of people complaining about perfect characters and yearning to see flawed characters make a come back. Hope so anyway.

People are gonna lose their minds when RTD writes characters with flaws again I think modern audiences can’t handle it. They crave black and white, good or bad The Tenth Doctor is interesting because of his flaws. Rose & Gwen are both very flawed characters Gonna be tiresome

@The_Cybermatt Oh yeah, and the Simpsons did the exact same scene only 100 times better.

@The_Cybermatt This is one of only two DW episodes That I actively despise. The infamous end scene summed up everything wrong with this era (in my opinion) where characters do and say things because the plot requires them too and not because it’s in character.

#DrWho Pardon? #doctorwhoreview #doctorwhorewatch #thepilgrimage matthewmichael.org/2023/07/05/doc…

@The_Cybermatt To have the socially adept 13th Doctor claim to be socially awkward in an attempt to force drama where it wasn’t needed was just stunningly offensive in my view.

@tardis_monkey Is too bloody many a real number? 14 that I can recall. It’s probably more than that though. I’m counting all 4 editions as one though…

How many times have you watched “The Five Doctors?” ✨ #DoctorWho

@Melthamrob1 @TheCyberdevil Small mercy’s!

@TheCyberdevil I suppose looking on the bright side, if they don't announce anything then we don't spend anything 🤣

The BFI schedule doesn’t have any gaps for a Collection screening in August. I don’t think we are getting the next set until September at the earliest.

@TheCyberdevil Well played sir!

What’s your big 4?

@DimensionsInJen Not even kidding, legit think he’d be great.

@DimensionsInJen Hear me out…

The BBC are making a one off Doctor Who special with an American actor in the role. Doesn’t matter how it fits, different continuity, future Doctor, pre-First Doctor, alternative, doesn’t matter. Just a new Doctor. Without saying “I wouldn’t”, who’d you cast?

@tomahallen @DimensionsInJen He came so close to being the Master…

@josh_snares Most definitely. But an old-school one (pre-Thatcher)

do you think Kate Stewart is a Tory?

@TheJazNetwork We kind of got it in Zagreus.

@ntrance @darrengrimes @BBC No… but… the Nazi party of 1930s Germany didn’t look like Nazis either…

@twilightstreets When one has literally more money than sense.

@sircharlsgsy @willbondspeare I don’t think that’s true. I know he pitched an idea involving past Doctors and the BBC didn’t like it which some fans took as them not allowing him use them, but that wasn’t the case. Then he had the war Doctor idea, rest is history. I wasn’t a fan personally. Preferred McGann.

@willbondspeare Now I think John hurt did a good job, but man it should’ve been mcgann. I’ve heard moffat did want that, but that the BBC wanted a big name to draw in views, which I think is pretty redundant, it’s doctor who after all.

I did not care for the war doctor

@GingerGeekShow I think it’s just a bad angle…🤔

Oh they cgi Sly stomach. #DoctorWho

@PoorlyAgedWho Like this guy? tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Astrolabus

rlly starting to buy into the theory that NPH is playing a god like being who’s also a controlling fan of ‘the show’. So he’s changed the Doctor back into David Tennant and brought back Donna, so RTD can include some meta commentary about how we v easily cling to nostalgia

@PoorlyAgedWho tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Astrolabus

It feels like the thing someone who’s trying to do something new and interesting with a doctor who anniversary special would do. It’d also explain the inclusion of v obscure extended universe characters like Beep the Meep. NPH’s character, as a fan, is making all this happen.

@TB_Rassilon Didn’t get these but we got Laslo…

DOCTOR WHO FIGURE COLLECTORS I’m interested in finding out if anyone currently owns or knows the whereabouts of these ‘prototypes’. If you’re able to help, please do!

@TimelessOwen Of course it’s probably a mix and lots more beside, so the real question is, who’s buying it?

@TimelessOwen I suppose you would have to find out who the buyers were to answer that question. Is it misogynistic if all the buyers are heterosexual women? Or is it misogynistic if they are all gay men? Is it misogyny if they are all young children with no concept of such things?

If it’s not sexism and misogyny when a man on a magazine cover, regardless of which character they are playing as, sell more than a woman on the cover, then, please, pray tell me what the fuck is it then?
