Then children should not watch, learn or read anything as history is made up of xenophobic, murderous events that are unsuitable for anyone.

At Junior School in 1978/79 imagine the look on the teachers's face as a lot of 10 year old perform Greased Lightning at a school assembly in a church hall. Can picture the horrified expressions even now.

I remember hearing something similar on the BBC a few years ago about the women who embroidered the Tapestry. Either I dreamed this or this was it.

Doctor Who has only barely got started when the writer of Episode 5 shows up and decides to take the show in a whole different direction. That writer was Terry Nation, and that episode, or possibly the one after that, will change the world forever. #DoctorWho #TheDaleks 500yeardiary.com/s5/e1/
In the Dalek city, Barbara, the Doctor and Susan appear to be urgently and vigorously pressing themselves up against a Dalek.

The 1999 one happened while my mother was dying. Hopefully nobody I know will die this time around.

I would prefer they dug up Jon Pertwee instead. Seriously is there noone on TV with any original ideas or thoughts anymore?

But so many don't do any of those things. Be inspired and do things with your own twist to them but just don't puke out recycled rubbish.

And enough with the remakes. It's bad enough when you do it to a classic from years ago but now let's animate a live action movie or live action an animated movie. Is there any originalilty at all?

I’ve long been of the opinion that the passive aggressive trolling of Sandifer lost edge on day one. But to post this on the day someone’s death is announced truly lacks empathy of any kind. It’s genuinely despicable.

All you had to say was you were sorry he had died. The time for criticism or otherwise of his work is not now. If you can't handle criticism of your statement that is down to you. Calling what Joe and others did harassment is appalling.
