Rules written 200 years ago by farmers were meant to be broken.

Education has evolved. Students' needs have evolved. Our children do not need rote repetition and mechanical emotions.

Four-day works weeks are a success. Our efficiencies should match our time off. Pure Capitalism is failing 99% of the country.

The Puritans may have been here first, but many more came after them with better ideas.

When we end Puritanical endlessness, we end the robotic dystopia and start to live.

The real reason we still do this is Capitalism and exploitation of the working class go hand in hand. Control, cruelty, and conformity are all the point.

Not people actually saying that Fourteen’s regeneration overshadowed Fifteen when this is literally the most time we’ve ever got from the next Doctor. Usually a Doctor regenerates and then we get one line before the episode ends and we have to wait until the next season starts, while also battling our grief at losing the last Doctor.

Do you know what would have happened if Fourteen had just regenerated in the same way as the Doctor always does? People would have been too upset at losing David again to really appreciate the next Doctor’s arrival because that’s usually how it happens. It takes everyone a good few eps to warm up to the new Doctor, but we didn’t get that this time! The Doctor had the closure that both he and the audience needed, and we all willingly passed on the baton to Fifteen within moments of him arriving.

RTD managed to close the last chapter of Doctor Who with joy rather than sadness AND hyped up Fifteen’s run IMMEDIATELY. That is one hell of a feat to pull off, and Fifteen got everything he deserved and more. I can’t fucking wait to watch his next episode.

I am not going to lie to you. When Russell told me that we were putting a ramp in the TARDIS, I cried. I did. He actually told me about a fan who had contacted him, who was a wheelchair user, and said how much he admired Russell’s work. He said, “Even though I can’t get in the TARDIS, because it’s not wheelchair accessible, I just love it.” And Russell was like, “So, we change that instantly. We change that.” When he told me that story, that really hit me straight in the heart. I know what that will mean for the disabled community, and many disabled Whovians who haven’t had that. -Ruth Madeley

David Tennant being a lifelong doctor who fan who was inspired by the show to act, becoming the Doctor and Ncuti Gatwa who watched David Tennant and was inspired to act, playing the doctor opposite David’s doctor is the most beautiful thing

*THE GIGGLE ENDING SPOILERS*

EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING

I’ve just read the novelisation of the Giggle and the ending has me on my knees - it goes into much more detail than the show so guess what

THE DOCTOR BOUGHT THAT HOUSE

THAT IS HIS HOUSE

He chose it, he went to an estate agents and said ‘I want this pretty house’, offered them £60, then rang Kate Stewart and discovered he was getting paid by UNIT this whole time, was able to afford the house/mortgage and BOUGHT THAT HOUSE

The Nobles still have a house in London but they STAY WITH THE DOCTOR NEARLY ALL THE TIME

He chose the house with a sunroom so WILF COULD LIVE DOWNSTAIRS COMFORTABLY

"I would kill for you. I would die for you" would you take a break for me? Would you sit down and rest? For a day, a week, a year? Would you let others take care of your needs for me? Would you let yourself be held for me? By me?
