Today is my Doctor Who Fan Anniversary!

On this day, 20 May 2006, 20 Years ago, I was changing channels and stopped on BBC One for 'The Age of Steel', Part Two of the Cybermen's return to Doctor Who in Series 2. I hadn't a clue what was going on but something about this program was reeling me in.

It took a while before I'd cemented the Saturday night routine but no joke, the program changed my life for the better.

It helped me step outside my comfort zone, which isn't an easy thing to do when you're autistic, it gave me my two best friends, and it consistently inspired me creatively. (I've been writing my Big Finish Competition entries since 2020. Fingers crossed I catch lightning in a bottle one day.)

The true never-ending story is travelling in the TARDIS. I'm grateful to have spent so much time with The Time Lord. I have two hearts worth of love for Dear Doctor Who.

What's your Fan Anniversary date? And how long have you been travelling with the long-running sci-fi adventure serial?

Tower Records, Dawson St.

I spent a good forty minutes browsing this shop before I spent a gift voucher. One of my favourite spots in the city.

Christopher Nolan's first film is an interesting one. He arrives almost fully formed but I feel like he's a bit more confident behind the camera by the time we get to MEMENTO. Want to know if you think it's a strong directorial debut, up there with the greats, or do you think it's a case of someone finding their feet before they really take off?

It was my birthday yesterday. Got these. I've been meaning to get a hold of Mean Streets for ages and this edition looks great. Unbreakable is another one I've had on my list of films for ages. For All Mankind is another I'm interested in.
