Seems a shame to look back on the Jodie Whittaker era of Doctor Who when the last episode that aired, her penultimate outing, stands as one of her weakest. Legend of the Sea Devils was a rushed mess. It's particularly sad given that the previous special, Eve of the Daleks, was bloody brilliant. Actually, though,… Continue reading My honest thoughts on the Jodie Whittaker era of Doctor Who, Russell T. Davies coming back, and Ncuti Gatwa as Doctor 14

Million Eyes… Continue reading Want to know who Jesus REALLY was? Million Eyes II: The Unraveller now available as a paperback!
These photos, taken by Galina Varese at Chez Maximka, are wonderful. She's found an image that could be the 'Hooded Man' in Million Eyes II, along with the Gunpowder Plotters and Jesus.

Hi folks! So Million Eyes II: The Unraveller has been out a week and I just wanted to share how publication day went for me.
