Things are changing and I don’t like it

[littlespark]

A female doctor who?
I didn’t want to say anything about that until I’d seen it. And I’m not being negative about Who being a woman... but tonight’s opening episode was a disappointment.
It was more the writing than the performance. I hope the rest of the series is an improvement.

I am hoping that sometime later in the series, Bradley Walsh brings in his Chasers for a cameo as an alien quiz team.


Second gripe of the night.
Sugar puffs are now called Honey Monster Puffs.

Eh??

 

[Nigel]

All Dr Who’s are a dissapointment.

 

[GMES]

I've never understood the following it gets full stop.

 

[Andy78]

Haven't watched Dr Who since my kids stopped watching it, but surely the new doctor can't be worse than Ecclestone ?

Also, how can they rename one of the major food groups of Scotland without consultation ?

 

[Nigel]

I've never understood the following it gets full stop.

Completely agree. Never got it at all.

Harry Potter also - never got it.

 

[Nigel]

While we are moaning; why can people not get money out ready when queuing?

 

[Nigel]

And people that food shop at petrol stations and leave their car at the pump should be killed.

 

[buzzlightyear]

Get a grip man ,it is not real you know . now emerdale real ask the wifes or corantion st .

 

[Octopus]

I watched it earlier with my daughter ..... it’s very pc now

Each to their own !

 

[Leesparkykent]

While we are moaning; why can people not get money out ready when queuing?

Yeah that gets me as well...Spends 5 minutes looking for their wallet/purse when they’ve been stood in a que for ages. I don’t have much patience for ditherers.

 

[Squid]

The Police Box will be transgender next.......

 

[GMES]

Knock knock

 

[littlespark]

I see buzz still hasn’t got a new keyboard.

Emmerdale farm regenerated into emmerdale village decades ago. That’s not a good argument.

A pink phone box?

Who’s there, GMES?

 

[Leesparkykent]

Running with the theme of moaning.....My local Co-Op cash machine never has any money in it....It doesn’t tell you this though, it lets you go through the whole process before it comes up that it’s empty

 

[Andy78]

He has, he's just still typing with his face.

 

[Nigel]

Why do vehicle sun visors always have a gap exactly where the sun is?

 

[Leesparkykent]

He has, he's just still typing with his face.

[sparkdog]

Why can't they make proper crock clips for test leads instead of instead of those bits of tin and plastic rubbish.

 

[GMES]

Why can't road workers take cones down when they have no intention of working that weekend

Its worse when they pay by card, but stand at the till dithering waiting for the total then start looking for their card. Then no doubt insert their card the wrong way round.

I don't think those machines do the £100 notes that you are looking for Lee

 

[Leesparkykent]

Yeah and insist on putting the card in rather than doing contactless. I was watching a women the other day doing a contactless payment and it took her about 6 attempts as she would tap the card against the reader and move it away really quickly...like she thought it would take more money if she held it there

 

[PEG]

I'm still quite happy clipping coins,and bartering skills...

...What is this talk of automatron finance dispensing engines?

 

[123]

...and all this with 15 people in the queue and 1 person on the tills. Meanwhile 4 members of staff go behind the desk and out for smoke breaks.

Why don’t the residents of Harlow know how to navigate roundabouts?
Harlow seems to have more roundabouts than streets.

If you had a cash in hand job then you would not need a cash machine to withdraw your weekly benefits.......

Don't go to Milton Keynes........

Totally agree.

I am a big fan but script went sh*t* when garibaldi took over, and unfortunately it still is looking at tonight's episode.

Its nothing to do with dr being a female. I thought it would be a refreshing change.

Didn't watch any of the garabaldi episodes, don't think I will watch these ones either.

Shame I thought she was good but let down by script.

You sound like a bundle of fun.

 

[Gavin John Hyde]

Since we are having a moan. I had only one piece of chicken thigh in my kfc box this evening. Had 3 drumsticks though. This is outragous and unacceptable. #firstworld problems

 

[Nigel]

When I order food that I want to eat then she wants half.

 

[sparkdog]

I remember the first episode of Dr Who , never watch it now though.

 

[Shane Mullan]

Knock knock

Who's there? (let me guess )

 

[Doomed]

People over the age of 50
What is the point in them?
Just make way for younger people to have a life.

 

[FatAlan]

It all went down hill when Marathons were renamed Snickers.

 

[Deleted member 26818]

It all went down hill when Marathons were renamed Snickers.

Where are the walnut whips?

 

[Andy78]

Where are the walnut whips?

In my cupboard right now. After taking the walnuts out and renaming them "whips" they have seen the light and reveresed their decision.

 

[Gavin John Hyde]

I remember being able to pop in the local shop and for 19p get a mars bar, when they went to 25p i thought that was extortionate, they charge 65p for one now!

 

[Andy78]

Or a quid for a 4 pack of small ones

 

[GMES]

I cant bring myself to get a public stoning, you probably guessed right

 

[telectrix]

Just make way for younger people to have a life.

it's only due to the efforts and sacrifices that us over 50's have made over the years that you young sprogs have a life at all.

Gave you an old for that one.

Sad thing is I remember the above prices also, so it's only fair I receive an old too.

I best not tell you how much they cost after decimalisation then.

 

[snowhead]

And what was wrong with phones going, Ring,,ring.

Why do they have to have a billion ring tones, none of which go Ring,,Ring.

If it goes Ring,,Ring, it's the phone.
If it warbles, plays music or some other tone it could be anything including the door alert (bell), microwave, washing machine, dishwasher, kids on games or a million other devices.
Even the cars sound tones when the doors open or the seat belt isn't in or the lights are on or you're going too fast.

And yes, DR Who has gone downhill since the first series.

 

[Spoon]

I liked the new Dr Who.

 

[Deleted member 26818]

I liked the new Dr Who.

Yes, it’s much better in colour.

 

[Pete999]

Never had the slightest interest in Dr Who, I was a kid when it first came on air and wasn't allowed to watch it, so consequently, never bothered with it, now Star Trek, the X files, space 1999 that's a different thing altogether, oh and don't forget Star Gate the first series, that bloke with the thing on his bonce is great, Tealc is it ?

 

[StephenRowley]

And people that food shop at petrol stations and leave their car at the pump should be killed.

People use the self service pumps and pay inside.

On a side note I thought she was alright as the new doctor.

[littlespark]

Was that really worth repeating 3 times, Pete?
You were a kid when Who first started? That makes you about 60 odd year old.
Which Star Trek are you referring to? The original, the next generation, the new films or the new, new series?
Star Gate? MacGuyver was in that. (Richard dean Anderson)
And the original battlestar galactica with Face from the A team

Jody Whitaker is good as the Doctor. I have no problem with a female Who.... The story just sucked.
3 or 4 mysterious deaths and the bodies weren't taken or vapourised? That's going to involve police, witness statements,post mortem etc etc.

And why does the Doctor always take his/her companions from present day Earth?
Pick up an alien/ caveman/ future person as a permanent companion.
