Reading, Listening, Watching

Reading: Doctor Who Magazine (which I still think of as Doctor Who Monthly even though it has been Magazine for decades). I was two issues behind because my habit of putting it in my bag to read on the train is no longer effective. The train was also when I used to read fanfic which is now backing up on my ereader. Given I hope never to commute by train ever again, I'm going to have to think of a new way to integrate fanfic reading into my routine. I'm not keen to include it in my bed time reading since - well - there is always more fanfic and I like to read professionally published work too.

Listening: Currently listening to the All new Doctor Who Book Club Podcast discussing Una McCormack's The Way through the Woods. Given how few of the NuWho tie-in novels I've read (or at least think I have read), I'm surprised how often they discuss the one's that I have.

Watching: I watched Dimensions in Time which I have never seen before, but I felt the whim last night and found it on YouTube. It's an Eastenders/Doctor Who crossover for Children in Need. I was expecting it to be bad in a "bemused Eastenders actors" kind of a way. I was not expecting it to be bad in a borderline incoherent/random events happening too fast/badly cgi-d floating heads of the first and second Doctors kind of a way. It's quite something. Not in a good way.
