  • I have two Dr Who hot takes:

    Remembrance of The Daleks should’ve been the last time Daleks appear in Dr Who. None of their returns have done anything sufficiently interesting (except maybe Dalek), and every one has to be prefaced with some explanation to where these new Daleks are coming from.

    And,

    Survival, in that same series is the perfect endpoint of the Master as a character and Dr Who as a show.

    There’s a lot of horror franchises that shouldn’t’ve been more than a single film. Off the top of my head: Hellraiser, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Blair Witch, and Black Christmas.

    Only Fools and Horses shoulda ended on the episode where they finally strike it rich. None of the episodes after that justify bringing it back.


  • The bluestones in Stonehenge come from West Wales. Instead of quarrying stone from near the monument, they dragged these huge blocks from ~278km away. Likewise, the altar stone comes from ~700km away in North-East Scotland. It must’ve been very important for the ancient Britons to’ve used these specific rocks for some reason, but their religious practices were conveyed via a now extinct oral tradition so no-one knows exactly why they did it.
