Perditorian - The Perditorian

Happy Christmas to us!

I looked on the BBC website for the time of Christmas episode. is it an actual episode or something just on I-player?

It’s a red button mini episode. That means for those in the UK once it goes live they’ll be able to access it by pressing the red button on their remote controls. It will also no doubt go live on-line at the same point although not clear if it will be region locked (I dont think the Doctor Who one was). I’m sure people will tweet when it goes live but understandably its Christmas Day so I wont be spending it on twitter ;)

Edit: Apparently moved up & now going live on Christmas Eve

Convo between my 7-year-old students today

Josie: I have a new crush

Matt: Me too! On a boy!

Pearl: You're a boy with a crush on a boy?

Matt: Yeah, he's really cute.

Pearl: Oh.

(pause)

Matt: Boys can like boys. I just can't marry him because boys can't marry boys.

Me: Yeah they can. You can marry whoever you want.

Matt: Really?

Josie: Yeah! My tia has a wife so now I have a titi and a auntie.

Matt: Okay. Then maybe I'll marry him.

Dave: (from across the room) No, you can't, you're seven.

(Age was apparently the only foreseeable problem anyone of my elementary schoolers could see with gay marriage.)

So since Anderson has been pretty well redeemed for us...

Doesn't that mean Sally was right about at least one of her judgment calls - about him?

How does this show do funny and adorable and exciting and heartbreaking ALL AT ONCE. 

The angels have the phone box

The fanfic writers have Gatiss

or maybe Gatiss had the fanfic writers all along

ANDERSON THOUGHT SHERLOCK FAKED HIS DEATH VIA TARDIS

OMG. This would have made those days SO MUCH BETTER!

Present-day me is giving this an amen, and 12-year-old me is jumping up and down on the furniture.

Call me when Louisa May Alcott regrets Amy/Laurie.
