And where will they congregate next? The demise of Outpost Gallifrey and the Doctor Who Forum

Thanks to the need to use a fixed site email address to sign up to the Forum, I never engaged with OG in all its technicolour pedantry but I got a lot of pleasure out of some of the gossip (sometimes accurate when it came to the Moff) that it spawned and the humour and wry laughs it provoked. Additionally, in times past, I was rather fond of its various show history/content sections - canon, timelines, reviews etc.

But now that's all about to end: Shaun Lyons needs to move on (a moral in that perhaps?) and those who have fought over every nuance of old and new incarnations of Doctor Who and its worlds will now have to find new pastures. I'll be interested in watching whether what comes next gathers the same insanity dedication to the cause.

You could always take it over . . .

I think my full time job would have something to say on that score!!!

Besides, I'm rubbish at organising stuff (especially involving people!)

Thanks for the vote of confidence though.
