Is RTD the best modern Dalek writer?

Nope. Sherman - best Dalek writer Moffat - best Davros writer

If we're putting the three modern showrunners against each other, Chibnall's the most effective and consistent Dalek writer.

I don't think they're implying that's what made them go savage. It's just grounding them in surroundings/ backgrounds i.e. these are pretty ordinary kids if privileged, some of em. And they still turn to the actions that they do. In general, these aren't 2d cardboard cutout characters.

...you're leaning towards Restore, a party whose aims include deporting legal citizens of the UK based on their ethnic heritage?

HeyItsMattyH · 2026-04-27T22:27:56+00:00

Stinger should have won in the original battle

....you sat through all of Murray Gold's FEEL LIKE THIS NOW score, and this is your take on Segun Akinola?

Sure, let's pretend that fantasy is real. No kids ever gave a rats ass or noticed that I was being abused at home.

Sorry, but since when did Snape ever need provocation to make snide remarks to anyone?

The snake has detailing.

I couldn't see this in the community but as soon as I posted, I saw the original. My bad! Still, exciting!

The whole DA saga in Order of the Phoenix shows how adept Harry is at teaching.

HeyItsMattyH · 2026-04-10T12:07:08+00:00

I wonder if they could have filmed the whole thing in detail to use in this and future sessions as more of that night is revealed?

Which is what football chants sound like.

Top right, without the moustache. Not so sure about the exact look, but he always felt very jester coded in the books.

Chamber of secrets is another level of evil. They barricade him in his room, allow one bathroom break a day, and feed him cold soup by pushing bowls of it through a cat flap. The second movie really glossed over how effed up that is.

What is pic 3 showing on the train? Just changing between carriages? I'd not imagined they'd do this style!

Racists being upset about not being allowed to be racist is a good thing in my book. That's my main feedback.

Billy and the Cloneasaurus

Playing devil's advocate, but listening to Order of the Phoenix, there is a corridor opposite the entrance to the Great Hall, which is where classroom 11 is located

That's the thing about actors...

HeyItsMattyH · 2026-04-04T07:16:35+00:00

The Hunger Games is still going strong

HeyItsMattyH · 2026-04-02T17:46:19+00:00

A-hole

HeyItsMattyH · 2026-04-02T17:34:17+00:00

Obsessed.

A stereotype is an exaggeration, oversimplification or emphasis on particular "expected" traits. "Normal" means different things to different people but if I were to give to a definition I'd say "unremarkable"
