Moffat Era Who

Apparently Steven Moffat is gone from Twitter and the word is that idiots are responsible. Also, Caitlin Blackwood (who played the younger version of Amy Pond) has been getting nasty tweets into the bargain. So obviously I'll remove the link to Steven Moffat's twitter page on this comm.

This is the kind of thing which makes me deliberately want to say inflammatory things about other eras of this show, incidentally.

EDIT: Apparently the Caitlin Blackwood account was fake all along, though there's nothing to say the people who tweeted the abuse knew that.

Of course, I tried to post this news several days ago, but since I couldn't do an LJ cut at the time (and still can't - thank you once again for the excellent service Livejournal), I had to delete the entry as it was still considered "spoilery" at the time.

I figured that since everybody probably knows now, it's probably okay to post this without a cut, but in any case rather than mentioning the actual news, I will just link to it here and talk about it in the comments.

In related news, there is a poll here for your favourite ever companion. I don't normally get involved in pointless stuff like this, and far be it from me to influence people on how to exercise their democratic right to vote in internet polls, but I happen to know there are certain sections of fandom delighting in how the current results are "pissing off" large sections of fandom. 

I'm not encouraging spite in fandom. Honestly. I'm really not. Don't go and vote for Amy out of spite. Seriously, don't.
