“I can’t die but apparently brain cells can!” Captain Jack Explains It All- Idiot’s Lantern 2020
RIP LAX Marriott con-level carpet. You will be missed. Sort of. In a you’re-ugly-but-also-iconic way.
Reasons I love Gallifrey One: Six’s photobomb in this picture

So next year- or this year- when the new Doctor starts, don’t be a Mary Crozier. Be positive, be kind, be brilliant. They are going to be amazing. Us lot, we won’t be here next year, ‘cos it’s going to be their show then. But please love them.
And every time Mary Crozier writes another review…. Kick their arses will you?

Ohhhhhh how I wish Gallifrey One allowed video recordings of panels. Moffat’s response to both the “all the women you wrote are the same” (a near DIRECT QUOTE from the person asking that “question”) and the 1st Doctor’s faux-pas were wonderful, witty, and very clearly something he’s seen/heard before but couldn’t give the response he wanted while still rubbing the show. “How is Vastra like Osgood?” was ESPECIALLY great. The person who was upset about 1 tried to invoke the “I don’t think that’s what Verity would’ve wanted!” argument and he responded with “I knew Verity” and said she’d have loved it! He even went on to explain that a lot of what people didn’t like about it were *direct quotes* and that it’s sort of like how your grandparents embarrass you or whatever- they’re still great people but grew up in a slightly different time.
I love this “I’m done with the show and am not being paid to make this show any more so HERE WE GO LET ME TELL YOU” thing he’s got going. It’s amazing.
So the policy for Gally is that you can only upload (at most) 3 minutes of video at a time which might seem a bit restrictive but man does a lot happen in even less than that
#gallifrey one#gally1#michelle gomez#ingrid oliver#i'd forgotten about this until i was watching all the videos i took to see if i got anything with the fire alarm that went off in the middle#of peter davison and colin baker's panel oh dear#MICHELLE HAS NO FILTER YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN HER SOLO PANEL ON FRIDAY OH MY GOSH#CAN SHE COME TO EVERY GALLY
Finally decided on my ribbons for Gally. Think I’ll save the other Missy one for next year if she doesn’t show up again in the show by then...
Heads up for Gally folks: Tickets are going on sale MAY 4TH instead of the originally announced May 1st. Insert joke about may the force/fourth be with you here
The world needs more Wilf cosplayers.
Didn't take a ton of pictures at Gally, but I put the ones that I did up on my cosplay page if anyone wants to take a look!
I return briefly to the land of reasonable priced wifi to tell you all that the jelly babies in Mummy on the Orient Express were 100% improvised by and the idea of Peter Capaldi.

My first Gallifrey One was amazing! I had a few people take my picture and I'd love to see any pictures of me since I'm pretty proud with how all my costumes turned out for this.
