Hello everyone, the Historian here, once again attempting to fill in the gaps left by the posting pause. As before, regardless of the date of this post, this is being written in January of 2014. Last time, things got a little involved, so I’m going to try to streamline this (and future) story wrapups. Let me know what you think.

2 – Don’t Shoot the Pianist
The Gunfighters episode 2 discussion:
Our review of this of episode is broken up in two parts: Photobug and Altair couldn’t make it for the original viewing. So later Ronelyn and I watched it again with Photobug and Altair, and thus the odd discussion. – Ketina

1 – A Holiday for the Doctor
Ketina here! New site, new format. Alas, no more summaries (at least not yet, we might add them later) and no more story wrap-ups (at least not yet). And, in order to get the stories to line up, and any current event references to make sense, all posts from here out are dated by the date we viewed the stories, not by the date of the site post. This also meant that I modified the dates from “The Massacre – Wrap-up” through part 4 of the “Celestial Toymaker” to get everything to line up correctly.
Anyway, there’s my boring explanation.
The Gunfighters. The first (and likely only) Doctor Who story that could be described as a musical. And since this one exists on DVD, we’re unlikely to add a summary later.
This week’s discussion we had The Historian, Ketina, Mr Mother, Ronelyn, Photobug, Altair, Spoo, Schmallturm, Mini-Spoo, and Cz.

Wrapup — The Celestial Toymaker
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS POST, WHILE WRITTEN IN 2014, IS BACKDATED TO FIT INTO THE CORRECT ORIGINAL POSTING SCHEDULE.
Hello everyone, the Historian here. At this point I am one full story behind where the Project actually is, but I hope to catch up soon! For now, let’s talk about one of Doctor Who’s early experiments.
I have to admit, I was surprised by how much disagreement and disapproval this story provoked among Project members.***
And that’s where I left things back in 2011, when the first iteration of this blog kind of ground to a halt. Ketina has gone over the whys and wherefores elsewhere, but briefly, writing the summaries and the pressure I was putting on myself got the better of me. I kept falling further behind, and the further behind I got, the harder it became to get myself going again…and two years got away from me. As I type this, we are about to finish the fifth season (one to go!), and the old blogspot website has lain fallow. Then, last year, Ketina decided to take matters into her own hands and here we are! She is posting our discussions and I plan/hope to add wrapup posts for stories and (I hope!) seasons. Eventually, if I get very industrious, I may even add some summaries!

3 – The Dancing Floor
Hello everyone, the Historian here. We’re slowly catching up to “real time!” On 8 July, 2011, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, MisterMother, Spoo and MiniSpoo to continue watching the Toymaker’s games. So, without further ado, let’s get to the summary!

2 – The Hall of Dolls
Hello everyone, the Historian here, getting closer and closer to catching up! On 1st July, 2011, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Photobug and special guests Altair and Ezio for the second episode of this surreal story. Without further ado, let’s get to the (much shorter) summary!

1 – The Celestial Toyroom
Hello everyone, the Historian here, still trying to catch up to where the TARDIS Project has gotten to. On 24 June, 2011, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Schmallturm, Spoo, Photobug and guests Altair and Ezio as we journeyed from Refusis II into…the unknown! So, let’s get to the extremely truncated summary!
