A
well-conceived and enjoyable mix of alternate history, feminism and fandom is
available here. Probably best appreciated by Brits, this is a parallel
television universe that I would love to be able to tune in to. I think all of the
choices map very well on to their male Gallifreyan counterparts. Of
course, if there is a television series that captures the crossover between speculative
and weird realism for me, it would be the 1979-1982 BBC series, Sapphire and Steel. Withdrawn objects,
vibrant matter, time as an object and agentival, a being that exists in every
photograph ever taken. Scary, weird fiction/realism at its televisual best.
