The plot of #DoctorWho The Faceless Ones is bonkers and relies on a massive failure by NATS not spotting that one of their flights is regularly turning into a rocket ship. Curiously, this bit seems quite plausible now. @themindrobber.bsky.social riversidestudios.co.uk/whats-on/uM2...

Sadly, I can't make this one, but if you're at all interested in 1960s Doctor Who, I can recommend these events as an excellent way to watch the stories. You're watching them in the company of many other fans and with informative and witty discussions between the episodes. Very enjoyable!

Nerds! A friend has found some shorthand in a book she's bought (UK). Can anyone translate? The page it's on is about etiquette for mourning attire, book published late 1920s.

Pencil scribbles on a book page that look to be a form of shorthand.
