He Waits No More

Hello, everyone!

Firstly, I want to apologise for the lack of updates over the past few weeks and months. My review of 'Doctor Who: 73 Yards' dropped and then my whole Summer got dominated with intense, lengthy TV freelance work. However, that was only a part of what's been occupying mine and Yaz's life for the past 4 months but couldn't talk about until now.

Myself and Yaz have managed to buy a house and we've been organising all the logistics, paperwork and moving. We finally ...

*EARLY ACCESS* - MrTARDIS Reviews: 73 Yards

"Following's the wrong word, because she doesn't approach. She comes so far and... it's like she stays away, and never comes any closer."

"I can't think of a synonym for keeping your distance. I suppose, to coin a new word, in Latin, it would be semper distans. Always distant. She's semper distans to you."

"It's like sometimes, late at night, I get this thought, like, it's so far away, but it's a note. A single note. And then a second, and a third and fourth and fifth. And you put them together and it feels like the most holy thing on this Earth. Like a G, then an E. Then a G maybe twice. Then C. And if you put words to it, words right from your heart..."

How RTD Reinvented The 'Doctor Who' Companion - Video Essay

INT. ROSE'S BEDROOM
Close-Up on a black, square alarm clock. A hand slams it off. ROSE TYLER sits up in bed, gathers herself for a second. She's 19, her bedroom's a mess, she's got another bloody day at work, and she's so much better than this.

That was how RTD introduces Rose Tyler in the shooting script of 2005's 'Rose', written around 20 years ago. With Russell returning as 'Doctor Who' showrunner and bringing in new companion Ruby Sunday, I thought now...

Hartnell-era Marathon: Endgame (UPDATE)

Hello, folks!

Just a quick update as we head into Autumn and ever-closer to 'Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary.

There's only a few reviews left of the William Hartnell marathon; 'The War Machines' and 'The Smugglers' with a few post-marathon videos to come as well.

Production is well under-way for 'The War Machines' review with it being recorded and in the early stages of editing. However, I'm afraid that the video will miss the YouTube scheduled date of October 14th. I was h...

UPDATE + Vote for the next Mr TARDIS Editorial

Hey, folks! Starting today, there's a new perk to the Mr TARDIS Patreon! Patrons will now be able to vote for upcoming topics and edited videos for the YouTube Channel!

Just a couple of clarifications before we get to the vote itself. The Hartnell-era review marathon is starting to approach the endgame with just 4 reviews to go ('The Gunfighters' to 'The Smugglers'). There's some general clear-up after that, but as I'm preparing those projects I'm wanting to tackle some smaller topics ...
