>My cheerful advice would be try to be less of a parasitic arsehole.

DON'T BE FILTHY GARETH

He basically started it.

He makes a joke about the magazine and then Ben hits him with some top bants, and gareth can't handle it and calls him a cunt.

GARETH ROBERTS IN RECOVERY POSITION

twitter.com/benjamin_cook/status/767676784322179073

So now we're 100% sure he ain't coming back. Good.

Piss off, cats.

Bored, kiddo?

In what world is Benjamin Cook the person who can erase you from Doctor Who? gareth was erased a long time ago

Gareth is right, thought. Cook is a parasite who can only live off material given to him by others.

In a world where he's a good friend of Moffat.

Tbh Cook is actually being a bit of a cunt in that conversation.
Not that Gareth isn't a cunt at times.

>/who/ presents:
DOCTOR WHO: SHIT TRIPS Vol. 1
- The Anthology -

>Are you a true fan of Doctor Who?
>Have you ever written down a sequence of words?

If the answer is yes or no, then you are ready to contribute a literary masterpiece to the first ever /who/ collection of original Doctor Who-based short fiction.
/who/ is finally making its unique mark in an age-old tradition of p̶a̶c̶k̶a̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶a̶n̶f̶i̶c̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶g̶e̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶m̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶a̶i̶r̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶l̶e̶g̶i̶t̶i̶m̶a̶c̶y̶ / celebrating the magic of Who and the talent of a community.

There are no limits (except the story must be at least 1 word long, and preferably not in excess of 10,000, it's short fiction you fuck).

>- Can involve any Doctor(s), companion(s), side characters, spinoff characters and beyond, as your heart desires
>- Can be in any style, whether it's "legitimate writing", "pisstake", or "shitpost".
>- Can be about absolutely anything
>- The main focus is on good fun in the vein of the wiki, although serious entries are allowed. (If you're going to write smut, maybe approach it with a degree of levity)

Stuck for ideas? Try starting with your favourite TARDIS team (or for timeliness, 12/Clala) and one of these authentic titles:
saberpunk.net/DoctorWho/DoctorWhoSerialGenerator.php
glyphobet.net/drwho
And free scenario prompts:
games.usvsth3m.com/drwho/

We are going to be starting an index on the wiki for the collection. Anyone can contribute, no signups/pitches required. If you have ideas, feel free to broadcast them. So far we are looking at at least 10 submissions and there is always room for more.
The rest is self-explanatory. Format for uploading your work is up to you, as long as it can be conveniently copied across (and ideally don't dump long texts in /who/ directly).

Anyone who wants to do illustrations or comics is encouraged.

Remember, it doesn't have to be good. Just have fun

Isn't that sort of the nature of a journalist/interviewer? And even if gareth's right, he still came off worse in this exchange. Ben's insult was funny, gareth's insults were just bitter.

are they really? I know Ben seems to have a professional relationship with everybody involved in DW but I find it hard to imagine they hang out outside of work or anything

set a deadline already. this was a neat idea when it first started but it's getting stale. especially since almost everybody seems to have done serious attempts at fanfic rather than something funny

Jesus, how can Gareth be such a regular asshole?

Hi thread police user

He isn't wrong, though. You don't make a serious attempt by letting people be done "when they can be arsed"

Is it ok to do big finish stuff?

As in taking lore and characters from BF? Totally.

Cool.
I'll try and come up with something.

>Isn't that sort of the nature of a journalist/interviewer?
To a certain extent, yes, but Cook is a particularly egregious example of it and seems to have no other string to his bow.

And he's a wanker.

>You wot m8?

The fish of the day is trout a la creme, enjoy your meal.

She looks angry in this picture I hope she calmed down again soon after

>It's Tenth Doctor ruins everyone's life for shits and giggles show

What do you guys think of Jessica Jones?

It's good but he basically plays Evil Ten.

>Gareth is right, thought.
Are you talking to your own thoughts?

>discussion has resumed
Feels good. Feels grand.

I fucking hate Twitter's interface, I can't follow the progression of the argument at all

Kek Gareth is mad.

HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

Apparently Big Finish are adding more audios each week onto Spotify which is great.
Listened to Invaders from Mars last night and really enjoyed it. Not sure which audio to move onto next, is UNIT dominion any good?

Dominion kind of requires you to be familiar with Klein's arc.
What are your other options?

That's just childish now.

Yes. It's 100x better than the KateUNIT shit which superceded it.

There's currently, 1-6 of Destiny of the Doctor
The fourth Doctor Adventures season 1
UNIT Dominion
Short Trips Volume 1
The Lost Stories first series
The 8th Doctor series 1
And 1-34 of the main range.

No it doesn't. Klein is scientific advisor is all you need to know. There are hints of previous encounters with the 7th Doctor but that is all.

I'm pretty new to Big Finish so was just considering listening to the main range from Sirens of time.

>1-34 of the main range
This.

Is that a reference to this?

I don't remember it all that well, but won't it spoil some of the previous Klein stories for you if you listen to it first?

Actually, Colditz is among the first 34, so he should definitely listen to that one before at least.

I don't think so as pre UNIT Klein is pretty much a different character in many respects.
Listening out of order only leaves you wondering how she ended up in UNIT I'd say. I don't think there are any hints in Dominion of any previous plot points.

1-34 is the best option, I agree.

Even just knowing that she was a Nazi but the Doctor rewrote her timeline might be considered a spoiler.

It is a spoiler now as you've literally just stated it for all to see.

Did you enjoy ruining that for them? You didn't even say 'Klein spoiler' before sperging it out.

Definitely

Remember when the furry porn trip spoiled the EDAs for everyone on /who/? That was fun.

What's the pressure?

Gareth is fucking BASED.

Whoever came up with the Madam Orford meme is a genius. Seriously.

Do you know any sites where you can stream the last season in 720p?

I want to give her a hug.

Jesus, this was painful to watch.

Hi Gareth

You can do it from a bluray player

Dailymotion has them but only in 480p and I don't know of anywhere else

Jenna got asked a question.
BECAUSE SHE WAS A WOMAN MUH SEXISM

They asked her because they wanted the scoop, simple as that

There is no patriarchy

>ywn

WHY LIVE

oh fuck this is uncomfortable to watch

...

The dumbass who asked about the year old Prince Harry rumours was the female interviewer tho

What questions do you expect to get asked on a piece of shit magazine show aimed at women.

>those thighs

>don't blink
i never understood this, is this supposed to be difficult?
>close one eye
>open it
>close the other eye
>angels literally can't get you

This is not a masturbating to Jenna thread. Please leave now.

But...can it be a (CUTE!) Bill thread instead?

Rule 34 of Clala and Bill scissoring when?

Hey guys, I have five Gareth Roberts related trips up for grabs if anyone wants them:

>Gareth6.t2
>Garethx4zo
>GARETHuK1A
>GARETHvQGc
>GARETHIggU

send me a message on twitter if you want the tripcode for any of them, i think people like "Definitely not Gareth Roberts" user could use them well

while i'm at it, any requests for words people want in a trip name? after cloister leaving i feel we could use a new wave of trips

We don't need more trips

I totally agree, cats. You have far too many already.

may be a bit biased here but i like trips

There is literally no reason to have a sustained trip besides attention whoring. Trips have lead to the focus on identification and reputation that is currently ruining this general.

How's it going, Ben?

Hi cats x3

Boo!

No, bad shitposting (i.e. from people other than me) is what's ruining /who/. Before monganon adopted their strategy of calling everyone Cats they just called people Mongo instead. It's not trip-motivated, they simply hate /who/.

clive is such a dick

Now hold on there cats I'm actually fighting off the anti cats shitposter.

Not him but he doesn't call everyone cats. He only calls your user posting and other trips cats, cats.
That is why you are annoyed.

But you are calling everyone cats.

No, not everyone, only cats.

But how can you know when he's posting without his trip? I would like to know too.

His pathological lying, easily identifiable reaction pictures, meme repetition, vocabulary (even if he disguises it) and modus operandi are as plain as day.

>Not Him
>He
lol

Okay, I see. Test: am I cats?

Do you have multiple browsers open so you can get different IPs using a VPN so you think you look like several people?

No? But you're not asking people that question when you accuse them of being cats. I'm having trouble understanding your line of thoughts.

I'll admit I almost picture it.

Probably why we haven't seen a Series 9 soundtrack released...?

theguardian.com/media/2016/aug/21/bbc-sells-music-rights-luther-doctor-who-wolf-hall-bmg

Yup.

Main character was insufferable. Literally watched it to watch the villian, same thing I did with Daredevil season one.

Don't think so. They just have the rights to use the soundtrack, they're not releasing them.

They have sold the copyright so from now on any royalties from any release of any of these properties will go to private hands and not the BBC.
That is Tory policy in action.
Now the copyright is transferred you can bet the delayed soundtrack will come out asap.

Mongo likes biscuits!

So, just started Series 5 a few days ago, still love it. Really loved 1-4, does this keep getting better and better or does it decline after a while?

6 and 7 are definitive dark age, most here agree it recovers after this.

It just keeps on getting better until I'd say Let's Kill Hitler. Then it gets good again with The Name of the Doctor and gets better and better. But frankly, if you liked Series 1-4 I don't think you'll even notice the quality drop.

Who are you?
