Hello there, the Historian here, falling behind again. But here is the last episode in the adventure with the Celestial Toymaker! While watching this, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Schmallturm, Spoo, MisterMother and Photobug. So, let’s get to the summary!

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!

Wrapup – The Ark
Hello everyone, the Historian here, on the horns of a dilemma. How to go back and wrap up a story that we finished watching just over a month before? I am still determined to catch up, however, and I owe you all a post for this story!
<Note: This was originally posted on 7/18/2011. For moving it to the new site I back dated it to 6/18/2011 so it falls in the correct episode order. Thus the Historian’s explanation above. This is also our last story wrap-up from the old site and format.

4 – The Bomb
Hello everyone, the Historian here, continuing my attempts to catch up to what the Project is actually watching. I’m only three episodes behind now, so I have hopes! I’m still going to be doing the truncated summaries, which are actually working well enough that I’m thinking of sticking with this format–which is closer to what we started with anyway. What do you, the readers at home, think?
So, on 17 June, 2011, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Schmallturm, Photobug and Cz, when we watched the last episode in this story. So, without further ado, let’s get to the summary!

3 – The Return
Hello everyone, the Historian here with another catch-up post. As I said last time, I’m having to forgo the detailed summaries I’ve been writing up for the past year or so in order to catch these posts up to where the Project has gotten to. I hope to go back and add full summaries at some point, but hopefully this will help me get back on track.
On 10 June, 2011, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Spoo, MiniSpoo, Photobug and Cz, as we returned to the giant Ark spaceship about to arrive at Refusis II. So, let’s get to the (truncated) summary!

RIP Roy Skelton
Hello all, the Historian here. Yes, I know this isn’t the post you might have been expecting (I’ll catch up soon! I promise!), but I wanted to note the sad passing of actor Roy Skelton, one of the not-sung-enough heroes of Doctor Who. He was the voice of the Daleks from 1967 until 1988 as well as voicing the Cybermen and multitudes of other creatures and appearing on-screen in the Third Doctor’s final adventure, “Planet of the Spiders.” As an odd coincidence, the TARDIS Project will be watching Skelton’s first work for the show this week (and I will hopefully catch up on things and blog about it by next week).
Here’s a nice obituary of Mr. Skelton from the Doctor Who News Page. (Warning: mild spoiler for the current TP story buried in there.)
RIP Mr. Skelton. Thanks for making so many monsters as scary and believable as they can be.

2 – The Plague
Hello everyone, the Historian finally here. Let me, first and foremost, apologize deeply for the huge delay between posts. I have plenty of excuses, but none of that matters. I can only say that I will try to be more prompt in the future. Getting “meta” for a moment, I can say that what has been tripping me up has been the high level of detail in my summaries–they do take a lot out of me! The solution I’ve come up with, to try and catch people up with the discussions (which are actually the point of this whole thing) is to do a summary in a few sentences for now. I may go back later and insert longer summaries later. I will also include links to the episode transcripts that have helped me get the level of detail lately. Again, I apologize to our readers and the Project members.
Now, several weeks ago I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Schmallturm, Spoo, MisterMother, Photobug and Cz to watch another episode aboard the ship to Refusis II. Let’s get to the summary!

1 – The Steel Sky
Hello everyone, the Historian here, welcoming you back to the TARDIS Project and apologizing for how irregular posts have been lately. Life has been a bit complicated lately and I can only say I’m sorry and hope to get things out regularly. Hopefully we haven’t lost too many of you readers!
Anyway, getting back to this episode, I was joined by Ketina, Ronelyn, Schmallturm, Spoo, MisterMother, Photobug, Cz and SpookyGirl. We were also honored to be joined not only by seven year old MiniSpoo, but also by almost-six year old ElfGirl, for whom this was her first ever Doctor Who episode! What did she think? Well, for now, let’s get to the summary!
