So, my Press Gang/SJA fic is coming on well. Almost finished the first chapter. I might post a preview soon. Anyway, onto icons. I was taking a break from writing and other stuff and made a few icons.

[60] Classic Doctor Who - Terminus
[52] Press Gang - Page One
[44] New Who - Time Crash
[40] The Sarah Jane Adventures - Secrets of the Stars

So I lied. It's more that a few...

Day 24 - Best quote

THE REST OF MY LIFE

It was really hard choosing a quote for this, because there are many really good ones, I though of Press Gang first though, because the dialouge is always fantastic and witty, and then I thought of the episode 'The Rest of My Life', because it was perhaps my favourite episode ever. There were a few quotes that really stood out for me, but the one (which is more of a scene, really :P) that I eventually chose was...

Lynda: Make it good. Give it some zap.
Sam: Some zap?! Am I getting this right? You want me to liven up an explosion?!
Lynda: I want you to give me the best work you’ve done Sam, and make it stick. This is our big chance to show what we can do!
Sam: Well that’s a new angle!
Lynda: What?
Sam: Gas leak, bomb or career opportunity. Lynda, there are people in that building!
Lynda: I know!
Sam: Do you? We’re talking about the dead and dying here, Lynda, and I’m supposed to put in ‘some zap’! How about I just do the obituary column in colour?

This really established the characters of Lynda and Sam. Lynda, the editor who will let nothing, not even tragedy, stand in her way of being the best she can, and Sam, whom one might see as a brainless bimbo, was a compassionate person who stood up for what she believed was morally right.

Day 22 - Favorite series finale

THERE ARE CROCODILES

There Are Crocodiles was very ambitious for children's television. It was very ambitious for 'adult' television as well. It was very funny, very thought provoking, and showed that deep down, most of Lynda's problems stem from David Jefford's suicide at the end of series one. It gave a wonderful insight into the mind of Lynda Day, and it was well written.

Day 23 - Most annoying character

ADRIC

I found Adric hard to like. He was really annoying at times, and he was an insufferable child who believed he knew more than what he actually did. But that's just my opinion. That being said, his death in Earthshock is one of the saddest moments in classic Who ever.

I did it! One whole week without forgetting to post!

Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite TV show

SHE'S GOT IT TAPED

One of the worst Press Gang episodes ever, not that there are many. The Moff wrote a great story, but it focused too little on Spike and Lynda and far too much on Sarah and an unlikeable guest star whose name I have chosen to forget. It also doesn't help that Kelda Holmes and the other guy weren't the strongest of actors, so they couldn't carry the storyline off that well. If it had more Lynda, Spike and Julie it would probably be more enjoyable.

Day 04 - Your favorite show ever

PRESS GANG

Best. Children's Drama. Ever. The Moff, Julia Sawalha, Dexter Fletcher. Paul Reynolds and Gabby Anwar. Do I need to say any more? Here's a link, in case you wish to know more...
