Robot of Sherwood was an early Capaldi disaster.

Enjoyed part 2. The two-parter format to this series really works. My boy has watched it a few times now. As for next week, my feeling is one of trepidation. My early memory of Doctor Who was when it was shit in the 80s. They were always walking round a field saying "It's 1544. There's a battle just over that hill. Let's hide behind a bush." Just crap, and the trailer reminded me of those days.

This series is only 3 episodes in, and has now equalled the number of good episodes in the last series. The 2-part format makes it better, less rushed with something to think about/look forward to. My 10 year old boy has watched Under the Lake a few times now, and is really keen on seeing part 2 after the finale to part 1.

Enjoyed the new episode.

My stepdaughter told my wife last night she thinks she might be pregnant. Can't say I'm too chuffed. She lives with a guy and neither of them work. Both smoke. Both 19 years old but act 12. I suspect if there is a baby, the wife and I will end up raising it.

In that picture, sure. But honestly, if there was an episode she wasn't in I don;t think anyone would notice.

1. Doctor Foster. Surprisingly good show, plus Suranne Jones in her undies. 2. Who's Doing the Dishes. Agree with what's been said. McFadden could have walked in with "Roland Rivron" written across his head as the clue and the folk wouldn't have a scoobie. Next up is someone from Big Brother from about 10 years ago. 3. Bad Robots. Cheap and tacky but still makes me giggle.

There's only one real Master

Is it just me? I simply do not find Rachel attractive on the show.

yes

My little girl (now 5) went the same way for a wee while. So I ended up reading her bedtime stories (always 3, never more. They'll ask but you have to say no). Then I'd let her count to ten and switch the light off. I stayed in the dark room with her until she fell asleep, then sneaked back out. This went on for quite a while and became the routine. Then I started telling her I'd stay for a little while then I had to go for some reason (say, a shower or work to do). Then, eventually, told her I'd leave the hall light on while I went downstairs right away. That works for us.

Sure he's not winding you up?

My wife and I tried a little romance the day after. It was very slow and frankly a poor showing all round. Within 3-4 days though all was fine. The bawbag looked worse than it felt, a big purple bruise. That and the fear of getting kicked, knocked into or otherwise hammered in the nuts was worse than these things actually happening.

The folk next to me are just clueless. They decided to sort out their garden, which I was pleased about. They put the mattresses up on their sides against the house, and carefully put the fifteen black bags of rubbish next to them. Then they cut the grass and planted flowers. I mean...why?? Why have the front half of the garden looking reasonable, and the other half a dump site?

Finally took the plunge and left Scottish Power. After YEARS of appalling service I've had enough.

Back on Dave with season 5, Monday nights

No, they wouldn't. But I wouldn't be surprised if they sent one guy round in the morning to speak to the neighbour, then he came back in the afternoon to speak to me. Falkirk council folk are not the sharpest tools in the box.

I really want to make an anonymous complaint to Falkirk Council about my neighbours. A month ago they shocked us all by clearing most of the rubbish away from their front garden, cut the grass, planted flowers and so on. That lasted a week. Now they have 3 mattresses, about half a dozen black bags, a rabbit cage, bookcases and a few other odds and ends all over their garden. Their is the only garden in the village like this. Anyway, the council will only take a complaint (as we've had mice problems ever since they moved in) if I leave my name, address and so on which I'd rather avoid.

Clearing is a bust. Bloody "free tuition" Scotland. Had to turn away a girl with 4 As and a B at Higher - more than meeting our entrance requirements - because of her postcode. If she'd lived in a shithole she'd have been welcomed in with open arms, but we had to turn her away as we can only take SIMD 40s. Clearing for the rest of the UK starts tomorrow. Basically if you have a pulse and can bring £9k in fees, come on in.

If you're considering clearing, apply today. We haven't filled our quota but are leaving clearing at 5 pm.

My mate's baby has been delayed till tomorrow. Coming out the sunroof.

It was surprisingly good. Bernard Cribbins as a baddie...
