"I want to say a little something that's long overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends
I wanna offer my love and respect to the end."

Oh, definitely - but that's a situation that hasn't changed. If people like Rassilon were reason enough to consider the Time Lords irretrievably evil, he'd have blown up that planet years ago. The Dalek occupation was a new threat, one that couldn't really be solved any other way.

In fairness, Rassilon was able to threaten to destroy the whole of creation anyway. I never worked out how he could travel back to our universe after Gallifrey had been destroyed in 'The End of Time'. The main continuity change to that storyline is that it now makes sense.

My impression of the Time War's ending - and it is just my impression, because it's always been shrouded in mystery - was that Gallifrey needed to be destroyed not because the Time Lords were so dangerous, but because the Daleks were about to occupy the planet. There was no way the universe could stand up to Daleks

This! I'm so tired of him being dismissed as the lightweight kiddie Doctor just because he underplays his sadness, rather than gurning and howling it out like Tennant.

Was it a joke, though? It was turned from a line where the Doctor laments his impending regeneration (which, really, why is he getting so whiny about? He'll come back) to a line about the Doctor facing his final resting place.

I was expecting the caption to be "Look at this terrifying sea creature scientists just discovered (and ran screaming from)!"

A giant big-mouthed predator with leopardskin markings? Does its vagina look like a catfish, by any chance?

Or like how trend pieces on Millennials have inflated "has hopes to earn a living wage and own a house some day" into "shockingly entitled and lazy".

It's pretty clear that The War Games shows the Time Lords at the apex of their power (and, for this viewer, their boringness). Every other appearance has shown them significantly more fallible.

There's him and Matt Smith who are the only people in the world who have to tone it down to play the Doctor.

I thin the crucial difference between Gaga and Bowie is that Bowie was bringing some cutting-edge music to match his cutting-edge image. With Gaga it's hard to avoid the feeling that all these stunts are designed to distract you from the fact that the music is just standard-issue chart pop.

Yoo Ji-Tae, from Woman is the Future of Man and Oldboy:

It's an interesting question. On the one hand, there's no reason why straight or bi women shouldn't have sexual fantasies about gay male celebrities - they're only fantasies, after all. I thought it was quite cool and progressive when people were petitioning for Matt Bomer to play Christian Grey (despite the

They were hoping to do Pierre, or: The Ambiguities, but they got tired of using so many sad faces.

I used to think that at least they were only ruining each other's lives. You know, like Russell Brand and Katy Perry. Dating each other keeps them away from people I like. But now they've got a kid... I'm just shuddering to think of the laundry list of psychiatric problems that poor thing is going to have in later

This is a brilliant story. I'm also going to steal it so the next time someone looks at my laptop I can explain to them how it's totally normal to fall into writing erotica by accident.

Low-budget and subtitled movies are bad. Okay.

Oh, what I'd give for Simon Amstell to host an awards show. "Miley is smoking! That'll teach Dubya!"

Top to bottom reading of Justin Bieber's sleeve tattoo: Puma Pride, mom's eye, Comic Sans, wanking Joffrey. It expresses every facet of his personality right there.
