Five Years of Song

From the BBC's Doctor Who site:

River Song made her first appearance five years ago today, leading an expedition to The Library where she found the Vashta Nerada, Donna Noble… and the Doctor. Although he didn’t have a clue who this charismatic archaeologist was, she certainly knew him, recalling days he had yet to live with an affection that indicated they would become more than just traveling companions.

Go here for more (their favourite quotes, a new gallery, a quiz etc.): Happy Anniversary River Song!

I shall celebrate with macros from Texts From the TARDIS. And I'm keeping them more-or-less worksafe! This one might be my favourite, but there's plenty more below the cut...



( Ladies and Gentlemen, the Doctor's Wife... )

Plus a vid to tie in with the theme:

OH MY PONDS THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE LIKE YOU!


To finish (for now) my favourite River vid. (Well one of them. V. different from the macros, needless to say...) It's S4/5, but one that has held up beautifully:

Summary: There there, baby, it's just textbook stuff. River/Awesome, River/Doctor.

LJ is being a bitca and won't let me reply to comments. Will get to you eventually. :(

Watch this!

Lovely interview with Jessica Hynes here. ("You think of Emily Davison as the only martyr, but it was all quite serious. It was no longer Carry On Up the Suffrage. I was crying into my tea...")

Watched the first episode last night (twice!) and rather loved it. Sort of the opposite of Miranda... Very quiet, very understated, but with real bite. Really can't wait for more.

Seriously though - it's a sitcom about Suffragettes!
