Nope, never. That was a fan theory. At the time the show was made brightly coloured wigs were fashionable. Sylvia Anderson (co-producer and costume designer) thought they might be part of uniforms in the future.

A major improvement on part one. Far too many plot holes to make it a truly excellent story, but at least it was an entertaining one this time. The Doctor's speech was of course the highlight of the episode, closely followed by the dream confrontation between Clara and Bonnie. And superb...

Well, it's by the same guy who did last years execrable 'Kill The Moon', so I wasn't expecting much, though I hoped to be proven wrong. No such luck. Clearly UNIT has suffered major budget cuts, relocating from the Tower Of London to that grotty house. There are now so few troopers that killing...

I just have to apologize for not continuing this for so long. Writers block delayed me for a while. I eventually got over it, hammered out the next chapter...only to lose it all when my computer froze up before I could save. More writer's block, and then my dad had a health scare, serious, for...

As I recall, Doris was first mentioned in 'Planet Of The Spiders', Pertwee's lat story. She had given the Brigadier his watch. She wasn't referenced again until the McCoy story 'Battlefield', where she was now married to him. It's possible they might have known each other at the time these...

Congratulations in being part of this Lonemagpie, I wish you (and your fellow writers) the greatest success! The Brigadier is a significant part of the Who mythos, he deserves his own series.

I've just got caught up with this (I've not been on the BBS recently, feeling guilty about my lack of progress on my own fanfic). An intriguing story, excellently written.

OK folks, 9001 apologies for the lack of updates over the past three months. I just couldn't get into it for some reason. It's just as well I'm not doing this professionally, I'd starve... Anyway, here's a bit more, I hope you enjoy it. Just got to wrap it all up now. *********************...

Normally only massive stars can go supernova. Even with the Hand Of Omega triggering it, a smaller star, like ours or Skaro's, might not have enough mass to cause as much damage. I have no trouble accepting that the explosion seen in Remembrance was powerful enough to devastate Skaro and wipe...

Thanks for your criticism GeordeKirk, and I'm glad you are enjoying it. I agree, Polly is very much a May Sue. There's little point in denying it! Heck, I even had her say a line of dialogue from 'A Trecker's Tale', the spoof on bad fan-fic that gave us the term Mary Sue! I suppose if I were a...

The Ziggurat Interior. 1st December 2151. Archer stared at the power display and swore under his breath. Twenty minutes at the most...."OK. Hoshi, Professor, we need answers. Find out what's going to happen when this place is fully charged." "We don't actually know that anything is going to...

There are intelligent, beautiful, catsuited women in Trek. No one in my life meets all three criteria, so I'd happily go there.

There's a bit in 'The Deadly Years' when Kirk speculates that there may be something in Chekov's genes that protected him. When I first saw it as a child, I, knowing nothing of genetics, thought Kirk was asking if it was his jeans.

If the transporter was a kill/copy machine, then no, I wouldn't use it. However the transporter as portrayed in the series does not seem to be regarded by such (doesn't Emory say something to that effect in ENT 'Daedalus'?). Everyone treats it as a way of getting themselves---not some exact...

Very, very short update. I'm just finding it difficult to write at the moment. The Ziggurat Interior. 1st December 2151. A casual observer might have been impressed at the speed with which Corporal James readied her weapon when she heard footsteps in the corridor. She, however, was not. Her...

Herroton City. 1st December 2151. Governor Trex winced as he entered the access corridor to the Command Centre. It was noisy in here. Too many people trying too hard to be heard over everyone else, too loud and too excited. He nodded to Tovan, who along with his immediate staff had accompanied...

A fascinating design, beautifully rendered! I'm not convinced by the idea that Star Fleet developed this ship and the Romulans copied it. Apart from anything else, Romulan Birds Of Prey of a similar design appear in ENT, in 2152. Maybe this was developed after 'Balance Of Terror'. Trying to...

Was that ever stated on the show? All I know is that just prior to that episode the Doctor Who Magazine had an issue with four alternate covers (the Doctor, Amy, Rory and River) and the tagline that one of these WILL die. OK, invoking the mag is a bit metatextual, but that only makes sense if...

But then we have the business of Smith's Doctor starting to regenerate after River shot him in 'The Impossible Astronaut'. In the original flow of events, that WAS the Doctor. It was only after his younger self became aware of what was coming that he pulled the trick with the Tesselecta.

Hi Brian, welcome aboard! I'm glad you've enjoyed things so far. Thanks for the input, it's very helpful to hear what people think. You're quite right about the chocolate, I did know that but I guess it slipped my mind. Well let's just retcon that and say that by the time of this story...
