@OnTheTimeLash @Dylandoeswho I used to live in East Hagbourne! To my shame I didn’t make the connection until I was watching the android invasion in my house 30 metres away from the memorial! Twat
@strangerscast@mattbarberuk appears to articulate my own thoughts more accurately than I can! (About dr who at least - he can keep his search history to himself)
@mattbarberuk Yeah that’s an apt analogy. It’s a great series. I wonder how much is scripted to illustrate a point and how much is genuine workshopping. There’s definitely a blend of the two. It’s curated beautifully. So dense in places, and I don’t mean that as a criticism
@mattbarberuk In many ways the lesser known ones are more interesting (tragic?). I can imagine them propping up the Barbican bar today wearing aviators and a neckerchief
@mattbarberuk@strangerscast Yeah the high resolution throws the shonkiness into relief, taking me out of it. And maybe something to do with an unpolished and foggy image appealing to my sense of watching an historical artifact
@mattbarberuk@strangerscast here’s one - I think black and white classic stories are significantly diminished from modern high definition viewing. I much preferred watching them with a small screen on a crackled, worn VHS. Can’t quite put my finger on why.
