Better than anything Moffatt could have written.

Spoon over Marin: Was that woman really worth fighting over?

Not if the pictures are anything to go by.

Over her? Is she like an 8 or a 9 in the UK?

Damn, and here I was hoping that detestable little twat, Matt Smith, had gotten himself snuffed so they'd have to get a decent actor to play the doctor for the eventual next season.

So, guy A wants the girls, so he hires hitman to whack guy B.
Guy B wants the girl so he goes and kills guy A.

My mother was right. If you want something done right you've got to do it yourself.

This thread was over in one.

FTFA: Mr Suller ... met Ms Gilmore in a brothel in 2010. ... Ms Gilmore and Bowyer had met during a drug rehabilitation programme.

So... yeah... she sounds like somebody you'd kill to keep.

Mr Suller, whose roles included small parts in Doctor Who....1

Really? This justifies a listing under the Entertainment tag? Geek tag...maybe, but even that's a stretch.

Would hit them. Would hit ALL of them.

Well this story has a few dimensions.

From the first headshot, I thought it was Pete Tyler.

Then it was clear it's some extra from episode X.

browneye: Really? This justifies a listing under the Entertainment tag? Geek tag...maybe, but even that's a stretch.

Neither. The guy appeared in like two episodes and he doesn't even have an IMDB page. Sensationalist headline is sensationalist.

At least Daily Fail refers to him as "actor." While "extra" might be more accurate, they aren't pretending he was one of the stars of the show.

Yeager shots, maybe.
Or penicillin shots.

What the hell are Yaeger shots and do they somehow involve breaking the sound barrier while drunk?

... because that would be even cooler than drinking involving umlauts.

They're Welsh...you need, at a minimum, half a pint of phlegm in your throat to pronounce them.

Thread could be redeemed with naked pictures of a Gwen, Tosh, Blowfish love triangle

There's pretty and then there's British pretty. The exchange rate is about one or their incredibly hot women to one of our just slightly-above-average women. In other words you could take your sis to Blighty and trade her in for a supermodel.

I'm still waiting for the MLP crossover.


JUST KIDDING!

/Or am I?

Balchinian: Better than anything Moffatt could have written.

Not enough glistening gay guys snogging each other to make if Officially Moffat-y enough.

I like how the person after you posted an image of a regular British model.

Checkmate, haters.

/'cos if it's nae Scottish, it's CRAP!

Sorry. Moar Amy.

That's more RTD than Moffat.

rynthetyn: It's always been a bit absurd that the Star Trek universe doesn't do that since it's supposed to be a utopian future where earth has gotten over its prejudice and all that.


To be fair, that's more in line with the fact that Star Trek was on American TV in the early to late 90s (the series that would have the balls to show stuff like that, TOS barely got away with an interracial hetero kiss). In fact, if I'm not mistaken, it was originally planned that Geordi Laforge would be gay, but it was axed by Paramount.

As well, in relation to the interracial kiss between Uhura and Kirk, the first same sex kiss in star trek between Jadzia Dax and Lenara Kahn got Paramount MANY complaints. One famously having a production assistant fielding the call where the caller complained about his kids seeing it, the PA asked if the man would've been fine with the kids seeing a woman shoot the other. When the man said he would the PA said "You should reconsider who's messing up your kids"

It got to the point where in some parts of the country the kiss was edited out of the episode all together before broadcast. And this wasn't some sleezy erotic kiss, it was a kiss between two people who were in love with each other.

So it would seem that the reason that there isn't any homo-love in Trek isn't so much about the fictional Utopia, and more about the real lack of Utopia. Kinda sad, really.

Will-Mun: Utopia



Has some plans for Utopia...

rynthetyn: But even the J.J. Abrams Trek, which isn't from the '90s, has a universe where everyone is presumed to be straight. And, as far as Next Generation goes, if they had any spine they would have just tossed Commander Riker out the nearest airlock for being such an annoying git.then in the episode with the androgynous planet they would have gotten a male actor to play Riker's love interest like Frakes wanted.

(though you may be right about having the love interest be a male opposite whomever replaced Frakes.)
