misterdanielI'm not going to post about Dr. Who. It'll definitely be blog-flavour of the week and I'll comment a lot there. I am curious though, if people were to rate the 4 series finales in order of preference, how would they go? (I'll do mine at the end).
Anyway, in non-TV news, Kaz and I purchased a lovely new sofa. This will replace the one that we kindly inherited from Chris & Christine back when we bought the house. Sadly, after years of good service,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fundessie killed it with his bottom. This arrival will be very exciting... in eight weeks time.
Meanwhile,sheyna and I have a large cabinet / sideboard / dresser thing that we are looking to part ways with. It is handy and spacious with 6 drawers, 4 cabinets and the like, but after making plans for our lounge, its too big. It can be free to any good home with space and the means to transport it.
Picture is :
Dimensions are 1.35m across by 0.5 deep by 2m high.
In other news, last night was a pleasant trip to the Jade Garden restaurant to celebrateigotaplan and tatty_tigermoth's joint birthdays. It was surprising to see Tim Packer and Edain down from Durham, but not unwelcome for all that. There was also an abundance of exceptionally pleasant cakes (and they defeated all comers resulting in spare cake for rehearsal this afternoon!
Dr Who Series finale ranking (payoffs not set-ups)
4. Coming in at last place, we have Last of the Time Lords. The Master acts like an idiot, whilst St. Martha preaches the Gospel of Jesus-Doctor, who uses a telepathic phone network to rise from the Gollum to forgive the Master's sins. The Master's death only barely redeems this.
3. Next comes The Parting of the Ways. This being our first taste of deus-ex-ness with Rose absorbing "the whole time/space vortex" and suffering fewer ill-effects than Donna just did. Jack is killed and brought back from the dead - but no one else is.
2. After some thought its probably Journey's End. I liked Davros, and the Companion team-ups. However, the clutter (whilst I enjoyed seeing folk) stole some nice character moments.
1. Making the best finale Doomsday. Touching scenes with the reuniting of Mr and Mrs Tyler and the departure of Rose alongside the Jets/Sharks confrontation between the Daleks and Cybermen.
