Nabble - Cadmium2

How to get run over.

2008-11-17T11:51:35Z

Thanks Guys for the mention on the most recent podcast. just happened to be listening to it as I was crossing the one repaired section of the tram tracks in Manchester to Piccadilly station and almost went under the front wheels of an indescribably large 4x4.

I have replied to the Polldaddy poll. I picked the first one. Count me in, as being involved sounds as amazing.

Speak to you all soon

Hi Gary,

Sorry for the late reply. I'll have a word with Andrew and see what we can do. I am not technical and wouldn't know where to start. The blog and Facebook are my areas...

Hi there Paul, Mike and Andrew.

To start, let me tell you that I don't like ipods. Loathe them. Designer and a little wanky. No, I'm more your Creative, your Sandisk, your iRiver kind of a guy.

The only problem with this is that you can't rely on itunes as a podcatcher if you don't use an ipod. I am using juice now since I sent back the Creative Zen - bloody thing suffers from something called "whitescreen" which is a major flaw - and now I have a Sandisk sansa which is totally topness. Only 4GB but as I am in front of my comuter every day getting to my music is a doddle. Anyway, Juice is great but when Windows Media player picks up the info for Cadmium2 it comes in as something in the uncategorized department.

Episode 29, for example came in without any info at all. It was just called 029. I had to fettle with it myself to make it organisable. Is this something you guys can do at the podcasting stage? you know, put in metadata that Windows Media can pick up and keep them organised?

Just a thought for us heathens out here.

Hmm, when they aren't looking copy the 2 DNS addresses from a computer that works for facebook into the tcip settings on your work computer.

It's rather hypocritical, but I had to set up the blocker at my work so my staff wouldn't spend all day on facebook.

Usually when you type in the webpage address on your comp the router will look up it's ip address and connect it up for you. So they set the router usually to block certian sites by using a third party DNS service. BUT if you type in the address of a DNS service on your computer then it should bypass the router's look-up service.

Cheers

what the feckery?

Have the BBC just puled off the best spoiler free coup ever, or are we about to find out that Tennant will self-heal or something, rather than re-generate?

Only a week of hearing people saying "WTF happened to "Who"?" then it'll be over for a while.

I hope.

Re: How set up for a spinoff was "The Doctor's Daughter?"

2008-05-15T13:47:24Z

Oh God. The Doctor's Daughter was so fucking trite and predictable. Did anyone NOT see her coming back to life. Just another character to squeeze into the season finale. And have a series all of their own.

I also love the way all the publicity was "Shock, Horror. The Doctor has a daughter!" Well, no, actually he doesn't REALLY. And anyway, have we all forgotten Susan.

Don't make me sick into my own scorn.

Hmm. Seems like Season 4 has produced its first turkey (for me anyway)...

Looking forward to saturday though. As a lifelong Christie fan (with every book she ever wrote) I'm quite keen to see how many in-jokes Gareth Roberts can squeeze into 45 minutes that only fellow Christie fans will get!

You know, I wondered that, too.

Only I keep thinking that's the hand of The Rani.

That slightly wrinkly hand and the high laugh. It's got Kate O'Mara written all over it.

Now, who could play an updated Rani, I wonder..?

Show 21: Doctor Who Series 1 review

2008-05-13T15:38:35Z

Would love all your thoughts on this first series...

Andrew

Re: How set up for a spinoff was "The Doctor's Daughter?"

2008-05-13T15:37:27Z

Yes, I actually thought that bit was a bit weak - she should have regenerated, that would have been a better ending. Not sure there's going to be a spin off, but she will certainly be back. Could it have been her hand at the end of Last of the Timelords?

Andrew

Re: How set up for a spinoff was "The Doctor's Daughter?"

2008-05-13T08:41:58Z

Far too set up for my liking. I don't think I like the whole daughter thing.

She's exactly the same as him, yet she can't regenerate. Then wow she just happens to manage it via a different route. Anyway if the place was only a week old and already generations in. It should be a pretty short lifespan she's looking at.

I was thinking the daughter bit may have a link to Susan but this doesn't look likely now.

2008-05-13T04:03:29Z

I finally am seeing the end of my love for the new Doctor Who.

WARNING TO NON-UK PEOPLE. SPOILERS BE A-COMING

Jenny, the youthful, blonde, new Gallifreyan on the block. Two hearts, dies, rejuvenates a little too much like Rose Tyler and then, to cap it all, flies off telling the guy on the base that she got planets to save, people to see and running to do?

How much of that was setting up for a new series for CBBC, d'ya think? Oh, I reckon about all of it.

Catherine Tate's Donna is getting stronger, Martha is hopefully gone and David Tennant's quif is about to out act him - despite a wonderful return of the upset he showed when The Master died in - dare I mention it - "The Last of the Timelords." But this Jenny character has that, excuse me, spunky, quirky kick ass girl thing going on a little too much for it not to be screaming out teenage role model. Quick! Let's create a new cash cow calling it, "Jenny Who" or "It's Jenny's Time" or something.

Is this just me thinking this?

Still haven't seen it, to tell the truth.

It comes from spending too much time doing this:

I have, however, read the book and it is pretty good.

I'll get it the DVD out from Manchester Public Library and give you something more like a definitive opinion.

By the way, looking forward to Children of the Stones episode.

No. You're thinking of every episode on the DVD of Spaced.

Andrew

Re: Doctor Who 4.3 (Planet of the Ood)

2008-04-20T05:53:36Z

You're right. It doesn't say New Star Wars at the front. It says, "You have wasted your time and money coming to see this horseshit".

Paul

Re: Doctor Who 4.3 (Planet of the Ood)

2008-04-20T05:51:26Z

I'm sorry, but when the title of the show zooms past the screen with all the grace of a black cab at a taxi rank, does it say "Doctor Who" or "New Doctor Who?" Phil Collinson can call it "Look at my massive TARDIS" for all I care, if it ain't on the show it ain't called that. Does Star Wars episode 1 say "New Star Wars" at the front? No. Case closed. Pratt.

Andrew

Re: Doctor Who 4.3 (Planet of the Ood)

2008-04-20T05:43:56Z

I like the phrase "What Paul calls New Doctor Who". I think you'll find that is what Phil Collinson calls it too. If it's good enough for the producer of New Doctor Who, then it's good enough for me (although I may be doing this just to wind you up of course...)

Paul

Doctor Who 4.3 (Planet of the Ood)

2008-04-20T03:07:12Z

Wow, how good was that? Very adult (almost unrecognisable as what Paul calls "New Doctor Who" it was one of the best things I have seen for ages. What do you reckon?

Show 19: Neverwhere

In our latest show, we discussed the 1996 BBC TV Drama series Neverwhere, by Neil Gaiman. We have told you what we think, but what did you think? Do let us know...
