Before becoming a media sensation and trying to create memorable, occasionally stark, and (loathsome as the word is) ‘iconic’ images, Doctor Who achieved as much without necessarily intending to. This is possibly my favourite shot from the series since it returned to television. Mysterious, brooding, unpredictable, and dangerous, this is The Last Of The Time Lords.

"The government is pimps. They all pimps, 'cos pimps say shit to you and then don't explain it. That's how our government do. You don't believe we gangsters? Tell me what the Iraqi uniform look like? 'Cos you ain't never seen that motherfucker, we ain't killing they army nigga, we killing THEM. We over there killing niggas in sweat pants, tank tops, flip-flops and a cowboy hat. Our government pimps, they get on the news and they act like we ain't even over there killing real people. They never get on the news and say 'today we killed four men, three women and two children', they use a word niggas can't readily identify; 'today we killed a group of insurgents'. Niggas be at they house like 'I don't even know no motherfuckin' insurgents. You can kill all they motherfuckers I don't have even one insurgent friend.'"

"I have an issue with an industry that gives pre-eminence to materialistic, mysogynistic, violent music. Those musics have their place, just like those things have their place in film, because those things exist, that's reality. But should 90% of the Hip Hop music in the mainstream media be like that? No. 90% of man in the hood ain't like that. 90% of what goes on in the hood isn't like that, therefore the music should reflect that." Akala, 2016

"Our greatest dread has always been the knowledge of our own mortality. Tonight we shall ascend into the Heavens. We shall mock the earthquake. We shall command the thunders, and penetrate into the very womb of impervious nature. Life... Life, do you hear me?! Give my creation, LIFE!" Gene Wilder, Young Frankensten
