Bang. There goes an afternoon

Thanks to Paul, via Lisa, for ending all my productivity this afternoon with links to the Beeb’s Doctor Who Years, three half-hour guides to Doctor Who during the 60s, 70s and 80s. Clips from every story, plus Blue Peter, Nationwide, et al, complete with entertaining captions. Save you having to wade through them all, if you were never a Fan (with a definite capital) of the old series.

Took me forever to remember the originating format came from The Rock & Roll Years. Curse my encroaching senility.

    I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
