THE REIGN OF TERROR
1
Whoever says this is a comedy didn't watch this episode first! That's to say that this is cracking good TV and cracking good DW to boot. I've said it before and I'll say it again---DW lost something when historicals like this one went out the window for monsters, monsters, monsters. Well, in fact, there are more monsters in this episode than in all of KEYS OF MARINUS and THE SENSORITES put together, they all happen to be human. If ANYONE can be really scared of ANYTHING in DW, then this should be it: mankind at its worst.

The 8th Doctor and his 'Company of Friends'
To make up for having to miss out
on going to meet the man himself at Chicago TARDIS, I settled instead for the
pleasure of listening to the recent Big Finish 8th Doctor audio –
“The Company of Friends”. And a real delight it was too (more details on that
below!). While listening to it, I marveled at the breadth of “friends” (or
companions) that the 8th Doctor has accumulated, across a wide range
of mediums. In fact, all told, it is possible that the 8th Doctor may
have had more companions (15, by my rough count) than any other incarnation!
This is all the more astonishing given the brevity of his television
appearances – about 50-55 minutes of a 90-minute TV movie.

Alex Rider Book 8: Crocodile Tears
This book was really good. I liked it a lot and thought Alex had a lot of character. The US version has the last chapter take place in Feb and Ale'x birth date is mentioned: Feb 13. The death of the guy that saved Alex three times was THE MOST SHOCKING MOMENT IN all of the books.
For some reason, while I really think highly of this book, I didn't devour it like ARK ANGEL and SNAKEHEAD. I guess at that time I was a new Alex Rider fan. Also I didn't really want it to end that fast, wondering how long it would be before...another one comes out.
