Decided that the only way for me to enjoy Doctor Who in this age of batshit craziness, is simply to watch it and not take a blind bit of notice about what other people are saying about it. In the old days, we used to call it ‘watching television’. #DoctorWho

Did I mention I’m writing a book? Actually, 4 books! The four-volume Blake’s 7 Production Diary will be the ultimate guide to the beloved BBC science-fiction series that ran from 1978-1981. There’s one book for each series (A-D), all beautifully designed by @cult_edge ! #Blakes7

So sad to hear that Terrance Dicks has passed away. I had the pleasure of meeting him a few times and he was lovely. The first time was in 2003 (with my friend David). "Can I have a hug, Mr Dicks?" "Certainly not." "Can I buy you a drink?" "Absolutely." #TerranceDicks #DoctorWho

People always bang on about how a single camera set-up is better than multi-camera production, BUT in single camera over-the-shoulder shots, it NEVER looks like the person with their back to the camera is talking in synch with their dialogue. NEVER! That’s it. That’s the tweet.
