Old man. Cult Tv nut.

While I was writing #YouAreNotAlone, actor John Breslin emerged as a bona fide queer hero. Wish he'd appeared in more than one (great) #DoctorWho story but the same year – 56 yrs ago! – he was vocal on TV about improving gay representation. #PrideMonth2026 https://t.co/I9l7owmNso

A truly sad day learning dear Michael Keating has died. The loveliest person you could wish to meet, so generous with his time. A very talented actor with the best sense of humour - the perfect Vila, he'll be loved & missed always. Deepest sympathy to wife Sue & daughter Lisa 💔

RIP #MichaelKeating 'the funny one' and my instant favourite in Blake's 7 when I was a kid. Rewatching as an adult you see his ingenious performance bringing an edge of reality to things, his cleverness, and often being the conscience of the gang.

PLEASE RETWEET:

I know I said I was parking Who SFX for now… but there’s no way I can’t share this with you.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Paul McGann TV Movie, I’m diving headfirst into a brand-new series of articles - because honestly, the material is just too cool not to share. This is deep-cut, behind-the-scenes, pure Eighth Doctor era goodness.

Part of this began life as a pitch for Doctor Who Magazine’s recent (and utterly brilliant) Eighth Doctor special. In the end, it didn’t quite fit alongside the rest of the issue… and, if I’m being honest, to do it justice it would have ballooned into something like an 80-page article. 😄

So instead, I’m unleashing it properly - no cuts, no compromises. If you’re a fan of the 1996 movie, Paul McGann’s Doctor, or that magical, fleeting moment when Doctor Who almost exploded onto the global stage… you’re going to want to follow me on Substack. Link below. 👇

@RHVlogs_ Heartbreaking. A bit of an admin nightmare for the club as well with sorting out the refund for the coaches I suspect. I hope they can still put one on for Tuesday. I was all ready for a pint at the ground at 10am and then a mad day out😢
