Fear Forecast! (Cryptic Spoilers?)

**Rob McCow** · 29th Mar 2007, 8:00 PM

I really enjoy reading the opinions of the Fear Forecasters. They're growing up fast though - soon they'll be haning round the Tavern pissed out of their brains, groping for cigarettes and trying to avoid the man with the beard handing out fanzines that smell of cat litter.

Anyway, this week's Doctor Who episode sounds like it went down well!

Although I'm a bit worried about this comment:

(30) The kids flinch as she gets it out again. "Oh no, that's disgusting," chorus the boys.

And:

(31) Adam assesses the Doctor's technique.

Possibly worst of all:

(36) Samuel and Adam argue about correct medical treatment.

This is going out in prime time? Or do the people who edit their comments just have dirty minds?

What was all that stuff about a change and an evil one with two hearts?

**Milky Tears** · 30th Mar 2007, 4:44 PM

She gets it out and bends it about.

"I was miffed. I didn't like it and in my eyes he was dying and I'd never see him again. But I think I'd forgotten who William Hartnell was by about two weeks into the new Doctor Who. Ha ha. Shows you how fickle we are..."
T. Wilcox, Herts.

"It's all sticking up again!" laughs Adam.
There's a vile shade on screen.
Adam knows better: "I think that's a weakness for all girls."
"No. No NO NO NO NO!" urges Harry, but to no avail. Amy grips the chair tightly.

Yes, these are all quotes from Maureen O Brien's new novel.

"I know who it is!" shouts Harry excitedly as a familiar face turns up. "The Doctor's sworn enemy. Again!" says Samuel.

Gary Bushell!

As long as none of them mention a mushroomy tip.

Site update and Fear Factor 2 (Quite Scary) for 'Gridlock':

http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/episodes/2007/303.shtml

(30) The whole family chant at once.

Enough with frikkin' Sateshite Five already!

**Rob McCow** · 11th Apr 2007, 11:13 PM

Surely the whole family are chanting 'Down with Milky Tears!'

(13) "I can't imagine waiting that long for a wee," winces Adam.
(14) "How can two girls do that?" wonders Harry.

Superb.

This thread is crap without McCow, isn't it?

**Milky Tears** · 18th Apr 2007, 4:17 PM

Fear Forecast is up for 'Daleks in Manhattan':

http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/episodes/2007/304.shtml

**Rob McCow** · 18th Apr 2007, 4:53 PM

This thread is crap without McCow, isn't it?

Not as crap as it is with you, James

Sometimes I think the general public isn't interested in what the fear forecasters have to say. Brave heart! I'm still interested and I might just have a look tonight.

**Rob McCow** · 20th Apr 2007, 8:06 PM

Gridlock round up:

(0) Two familiar figures. "Who are they?" puzzles Samuel. "It's the couple from the Amrerican Gothic painting!" grins Mum. The TV newscaster says to the vehicle victims: "Missing you already!" Adam ponders: "Do you think she's secretly evil? Like the Wire?"

So it wasn't the return of a) The Master, b) James Lindsay or c) The Duke of Manhattan.

(12) Adam is delighted to see the kittens. "Huh?!" says Amy. "Well, their father is a cat", Harry explains. Samuel is amused by how incredulous Brannigan and Valerie are that the Doctor thinks six months too much time to wait for the next lay-by. "I can't imagine waiting that long for a wee," winces Adam.
(13) Brannigan and Valerie reveal that they have an on-board chemical toilet. "That would help with the wee, then," accepts Adam. "Can I have a cracker please?" asks Amy, inspired by the on-screen food.
(14) The Cressini girls amuse Adam. "And she's got a telephone directory!" he laughs as one of them identifies car 465-diamond-six. "How can two girls be married?" wonders Harry.

So what they reported the kids saying last week is rather different from what they actually said. Dennis Brent would be appalled.

Daleks In Hats...

(3) "It's Julius Caesar!" shouts Harry.

I bet it bloody isn't, you daft brat.

(4) Adam: "Hey, does that mean she's from the year 2010?"

4 minutes in and they can only be showing off their childish naivety.

(9) Harry's triumphant. Amy's delighted. Samuel growls.

McCow calls social services.

(18) Some familiar characters delight the kids.

Usually this means that their parents have come in with the tea, or that The Doctor has arrived in the story.

(37) "Steamy!" notes Harry.

(39) "Turn the light on!" Samuel shouts.

(41) "I've not seen a sucker do that before!" notes Harry

(43) Harry's wide-eyed, clutching his seat

(44) Samuel: "Woah! Awesome!" Amy: "Urrrrgh!" Harry: "Arrrrgh!" Dad: "Ewwww!" Adam makes a strange gurgling noise as...

The police arrive and put a stop to the whole sordid affair.

**Milky Tears** · 21st Apr 2007, 4:12 PM

(37) "Steamy!" notes Harry.

(39) "Turn the light on!" Samuel shouts.

(41) "I've not seen a sucker do that before!" notes Harry

(43) Harry's wide-eyed, clutching his seat

(44) Samuel: "Woah! Awesome!" Amy: "Urrrrgh!" Harry: "Arrrrgh!" Dad: "Ewwww!" Adam makes a strange gurgling noise as...

I think there's a Boston Steamer in this episode!

**Milky Tears** · 25th Apr 2007, 3:32 PM

Fear Factor 5 (Terrifying) for 'Evolution of the Daleks'.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/episodes/2007/305.shtml

That's the highest for a Darrrlerk episode so far, isn't it?

I still think it'll be a load of old toss. Probably about as scary as McCow in his pants!

(9) "Oh, niiiiiice!" croons Samuel.

(11) The kids are all impressed and shocked. And then there are gasps of disbelief.

(13) Amy's fascinated and repulsed.

(33) The whole family wince.

(34) Amy's aghast. Mum's reactions scandalises Samuel.

(38) Amy and Harry daren't move and stare transfixed, mouths agape.

Definitely sounds like McCow in his pants!

**Paul Monk** · 25th Apr 2007, 3:42 PM

There's no way McCow in his Pants would ever get past the censors!

**Rob McCow** · 25th Apr 2007, 4:06 PM

They screamed and cried but they loved it.

McCow in his pants!

With a promise of a glimpse of these familiar favourites, they could easily expect a viewing audience of 9 million.

**Si Hunt** · 25th Apr 2007, 4:14 PM

Or 9!

Si.

**Rob McCow** · 25th Apr 2007, 4:43 PM

Or 9!

and a half million. I'd settle for 8 million tbh.

**SiHart** · 25th Apr 2007, 5:25 PM

I'd watch.

Si xx

**Rob McCow** · 26th Apr 2007, 12:15 PM

You'd be in trouble if you didn't!

**Rob McCow** · 26th Apr 2007, 9:16 PM

(25) Would the Doctor know what to look for? "Yeah, dalekanium," replies Samuel.

(29) The kids know how the Daleks operate these days... and have a suggestion!

They're turning into human - Doctor Who fan hybrids! They'll be squeeing about Macra next.
