Today’s Doctor Who episode is being guest written by Iain M. Banks, science fiction writer and anti-war protester. It should be interesting. Join us here from 6pm for the most accurate breaking Doctor Who coverage on the internet.
5.59 PM: Hello everyone. Are you as excited as me? I hope you are.
6.02 PM: This doesn’t start until twenty past six by the way. Total Wipeout’s on at the moment.
6.05 PM: I wonder if Richard Hammond has ever had a thought.
6.09 PM: I can’t take any more of this. I’m going outside for a while. I may be some time.
6.11 PM: There was some children out there so I came back in in case they asked for a light.
6.12 PM: I don’t have a light.
6.13 PM: Although sometimes I wish I did smoke. It would mean I had a reason to loiter outside pointlessly without looking sinister or confused.
6.14 PM: The only time I can just stand around outside at the moment is when the moon is out and I can say “I am looking at the moon” if anyone asks.
6.18 PM: A man just fell off something into something. I think he’s won.
6.19 PM: As the Total Wipeout credits go up a quick preview of Doctor Who plays, showing me almost absolutely everything. Things shown include Doctor Who talking about socialism, Doctor Who drinking a glass of whiskey, Doctor Who telling Amy the TARDIS’s full name (Rogue Class Time Ship Tremendous Anarchist Radiating Delight In Space), a man throttling a crow and then stamping on its eggs, a castle that is about to explode.
6.20 PM: The voiceover woman introducing it then proceeeds to tell me the rest of what will happen. What will happen: The castle will explode.
6.21 PM: I’m going to bed.
