Good. He is an international treasure.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 64 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Inter-dimensional treasure

[–] Iamsqueegee@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So, Nic Cage could steal him?

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And as England does to Scotland, so to shall America do to England.

He's OURS now. We'll give you back Hugh Laurie if you like. And please take Simon Cowel back he's barely house broken.

I’d rather give back James Cordin than Simon Cowel.

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sshhhhh we don't say his name. They won't take him and the mention of him sours any deal.

We'll try to pawn Ellen off on them soonest chance we get

you know its bad if James Cordin has a Doctor Who experience and everyone generally likes it but Rowling doesn't even get a chance

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Corden is a curse. We can't return him until the last acre of native land is returned to its proper owner (impossible)

What is this? Fantasy football?

It was long before we knew what a piece of shit she was though.

[–] Technoguyfication@sh.itjust.works 96 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, maybe not for a timelord

Timey wimey, piecey shittey

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 56 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Long before we knew she was a piece of shit. Seems highly likely that people in the circles she moved in back then knew what type of filth she was.

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 9 points 2 months ago

These circles are small worlds, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were already some hallway rumours about her being a shit person long ago.

Tennant’s reported reason for not wanting the author to appear was that he thought it would have been too much like satire.

The Daily Record reported Davies saying: “He thinks it sounds like a spoof, so we’ve paused slightly..."

The paper also noted that Davies had once asked Rowling to write an episode of the sci-fi series, but she declined.

Thank god

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

Rowling realized she doesn't have to write, she can just talk about Hermonie being black and pooping her own pants on Twitter inbetween holocaust denying transphobic bullshit

This definitely makes up for that poorly aged "Good ol' JK!" line in his episode about the witches.

[–] Jessica@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That doesn't seem to be the case based on this other comment saying he asked her to write an episode, and that the only reason he spoke out against her appearing on the show was because it would appear as satire: https://lemm.ee/comment/14721045

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

The one who asked her to write an episode seems to be Russel T. Davies, not David Tennant.
