The Seventh Doctor comes to Blu-ray for the first time, with the release The Collection – Season 26 on Monday 23rd December.

Pre-order Doctor Who – Season 26 from Amazon and Zoom. Coming soon to the US and Australia.

In 1989, Doctor Who was on a creative high, with the Seventh Doctor and his companion Ace revitalising the programme for a new generation. Season 26 featured four epic adventures traversing a future Britain invaded by inter-dimensional knights, a strange Victorian house haunted by ghosts from Ace’s past, an alien world populated by Cheetah People and a 1940s army camp under siege from monstrous vampires.

With guest stars including Nicholas Courtney (Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart), Anthony Ainley (The Master), Jean Marsh, Nicholas Parsons, Anne Reid, Ian Hogg, Sylvia Syms and comedy duo Hale & Pace, this fondly-remembered set of stories saw the end of an era for Doctor Who and set the stage for its hugely successful revival.

With all episodes newly remastered from the best available sources, this Blu-ray box set also contains extensive and exclusive special features, including:

Rare Restored Extended Cuts - The Curse Of Fenric VHS Extended Version, The Curse Of Fenric DVD Special Edition, Battlefield VHS Extended Version and Battlefield DVD Special Edition

5.1 surround sound & isolated scores on all 14 broadcast episodes, plus 5.1 sound on all extended versions of The Curse Of Fenric and Battlefield.

Behind the Sofa - new episodes with Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred, plus companions Janet Fielding, Sarah Sutton, Anneke Wills and Jodie Whittaker-era writers Pete McTighe & Joy Wilkinson.

Showman - the Life of John Nathan-Turner - a feature-length look at the life and career of Doctor Who’s longest-serving producer, who fought to keep the programme on-air during the 1980s. Contributors include Peter Davison and Colin Baker.

Making ‘The Curse of Fenric’- a brand new documentary featuring Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred, Tomek Bork, Nicholas Parsons, Cory Pulman, Marek Anton, Ian Briggs, Andrew Cartmel, Mark Ayres and Ian Collins featuring unseen behind-the-scenes footage and photographs.

In Conversation - Matthew Sweet chats to companion Sophie Aldred.

The Writers’ Room - Ben Aaronovitch, Marc Platt, Ian Briggs, Rona Munro and Andrew Cartmel discuss their work on Season 26.

Becoming The Destroyer - Actor Marek Anton and prosthetics designer Stephen Mansfield recall the creation of one of Doctor Who’s best-ever monsters.

Plus: Brand new Ghost Light extended workprint, unseen studio footage, rare archive treats, convention footage, HD photo galleries, scripts, costume designs, rare BBC production files and other gems from the archive in PDF.

The seven-disc box set also includes hours of extensive special features previously released on DVD.

When Taylor Swift came to town

Taylor Swift loves playing in Massachusetts — at least, playing at Gillette Stadium. Since first headlining there in 2010, Swift has sold out the venue seven times, on four tours. The music video for her song “Sparks Fly” takes footage from her live performance at Gillette in 2011. “Foxborough is the first place that I realized it was a possibility to play”to more than 100,000 fans “in two days,” she reportedlytold the crowd. “My time in Foxborough will be filed under one of the greatest times in my life.”

This week, Swift — who has long made headlines for offstage romances, breakups, and celebrity beefs — is upping the ante with three nights at Gillette, as part of a seven-month, four-continent tour.

Here’s a look back at 10 years of Swift’s performances in Massachusetts.

When: Sept. 13, 2008

Where: Comcast Center, Mansfield

Onstage: At just 18 years old, Swift opened for country megastars Rascal Flatts on their “Still Feels Good” tour. Her first song was “I’m Only Me When I’m With You,” which Rolling Stone panned as one of Swift’s worst compositions. Just two months later, Swift would drop “Fearless,” an album that would go on to be diamond certified (sales and streaming equivalent sales of at least 10 million units), win album of the year at the Grammys, and launch her career.

Offstage: From July to October 2008, Swift dated teen star Joe Jonas. Their breakup inspired the song “Forever & Always,” a last-minute addition to “Fearless.”

When: July 31, 2009

Where: TD Garden, Boston

Onstage: Amid her own “Fearless” tour, Swift opened for Keith Urban. In Boston, she performed 11 songs, starting with “You Belong With Me,” one of her biggest hits. Just six weeks later, the song’s music video would win Swift best female video at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, a ceremony famously interrupted by Kanye West.

Offstage: Only 19, Swift was vaulted to superstardom. That year, she was named Billboard’s artist of the year, appeared in the film “Valentine’s Day” and the “CSI” TV series, hosted “Saturday Night Live,” and dated teen heartthrob Taylor Lautner. Oh, and “Fearless” would be the best-selling album of the year.

When: June 5, 2010

Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough

Onstage: Before Swift took the stage for the first time at Gillette, fans saw three openers: Gloriana, Kellie Pickler, and a 16-year-old from Canada named Justin Bieber. Swift closed her encore with “Should’ve Said No,” a song that has resurfaced on her current tour.

Offstage: In the late spring of 2010, rumors began swirling that Swift was dating “Glee” actor Cory Monteith. Some have guessed that her song “Mine,” released in August 2010, is about him. (Neither Swift nor Monteith, who died in 2013, ever confirmed the rumors.)

When: June 25-26, 2011

Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough

Onstage: Swift’s second round at Gillette came amid her “Speak Now” world tour. She opened with “Sparks Fly,” footage of which formed much of the song’s music video. She closed with “Love Story,” a song she has performed on every headlining tour.

Offstage: Though a crossover artist by 2011, country music wasn’t ready to relinquish its claim on Swift: She won the Country Music Association’s entertainer of the year award, having previously won in 2009. She also won her fourth songwriter/artist of the year award from the Nashville Songwriters Association International, and was named entertainer of the year by the Academy of Country Music.

When: July 2, 2012

Where: Tanglewood, Lenox

Onstage: Swift, 22 years old, made a guest appearance with James Taylor, and the two Taylors — Swift has said she was named after the Boston-born balladeer — performed a duet of “Fire and Rain,” his 1970 megahit. She also performed her hit songs “Ours” and “Love Story,” and left to a standing ovation.

Offstage: From July through September, Swift dated 18-year-old political legacy Conor Kennedy, grandson of Robert F. Kennedy. The two were seen on a Hyannis Port beach, and in August Swift bought her own Cape Cod home — seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, at $4.9 million — near the Kennedys. She sold it the next spring, at a profit.

When: July 26-27, 2013

Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough

Onstage: Openers included Ed Sheeran, who has become one of the UK’s all-time best-selling artists. Swift closed with “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” a pop hit reportedly about ex-boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal.

Offstage: “The Red Tour” would gross over $150 million, and in 2013 Swift was named artist of the year at the American Music Awards. After breaking up with One Direction singer Harry Styles in January, her high-profile love life took a pause. That year, Swift bought a beach mansion in Watch Hill, R.I.

When: Aug. 3, 2014

Where: Boston Children’s Hospital

Onstage: Swift made a surprise appearance at the hospital to visit Jordan Lee Nickerson, a 6-year-old leukemia patient from Rhode Island. Swift and Nickerson played air hockey, and he asked her to play her favorite song. She serenaded his private hospital room with “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”

Offstage: In the spring of 2014, Swift moved to New York City and began work on “1989,” an album of bona-fide pop anthems. Two weeks after the hospital visit, she released “Shake It Off,” which currently has more than 2.6 billion views on YouTube.

When: July 24-25, 2015

Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough

Onstage: On the “1989” world tour, which would reach some 2.2 million fans and earn $250 million in revenue, Swift greeted the Foxborough crowd with the album’s first track: “Welcome to New York.” Openers included Vance Joy, Shawn Mendes, and Haim.

Offstage: In March, Swift began dating Scottish singer, DJ, and record producer Calvin Harris. The two would break up the following year. That same spring, Swift’s mother was diagnosed with cancer. She asked her fans to encourage their parents to get checked for any health problems.

When: July 26-28, 2018

Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough

Onstage: On her “Reputation” stadium tour thus far, Swift has performed songs from her new album (including “. . . Ready for It?,” “I Did Something Bad,” and “Look What You Made Me Do”) and past hits (“Shake It Off,” “Blank Space,” “Sparks Fly”). Openers include Charli XCX and Camila Cabello.

Offstage: With a net worth over $320 million, according to Forbes, Swift remains a leader of pop (“Reputation” was globally the second-best-selling album of 2017, behind only “÷” by her former opener Ed Sheeran). Critics were mixed on “Reputation,” and less-than-stellar ticket sales on this tour have led some to wonder if her star has dimmed. By the end of the weekend, we’ll know where the Foxborough faithful stand.

January-February 2021 Reading List

As the first two months of 2021 are complete, I have been thinking about the goals that I set for myself last year and into this year. One of those goals was to continue actively reading to further my knowledge about those topics that are important to me. During the months of January/February I was able to read eleven books, that have furthered my knowledge about leadership, parenting, and ministry. Each of these books has been a valuable part of my acquired knowledge and I would love to insights from these resources.

Some of you have asked about how I can read so many resources and the answer stems from a book that I was required to read when I began my PhD studies entitled How to Read a Book by Mortimer J. Adler & Charles Van Doren. This particular resource altered the manner that I read and reflected on the content that was before me. It is a valuable read for anyone who is looking to increase their reading abilities.

January/February 2021 Reading List:

Relationship Grit by Jon & Kathryn Gordon

Forgiving What You Can’t Forget by Lysa Terkeurst

Emotionally Healthy Spirituality by Peter Scazzero

Move Toward the Mess by John Hambrick

Future Church by Will Mancini & Cory Hartman

Jesus the King by Timothy Keller

Before You Split by Toni Nieuwhof

Leading Broken People by Paul Lloyd

The Generosity Secret by Nelson Searcy

Healing Your Church Hurt by Stephen Mansfield

Kindness Matters by Kevin Williams

Each of these resources were wonderful and I look forward to continuing to share my reading for this year.

by Cory Mansfield | The Old Testament has anywhere from 200-400 prophecies that were fulfilled by Jesus. Although scholars differ on the number, the sheer unlikeliness that one person could fulfill all of these prophecies point to the fact that Jesus is indeed the true Messiah. The prophecies about Jesus, which can be found throughout the Old Testament...

On the Plaza of Dallas City Hall, ‘Black Lives Matter’

Dallas City Hall looks different today. Overnight, a group of volunteers painted the words ‘BLACK LIVES MATTER’ onto the expanse of concrete on City Hall’s plaza. Mansfield resident Cory Hughes helped organize the team of dozens last night, which, at one point, included a few members of the City Council. The message is readable from […]

Understanding Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s handling of the impeachment trial of Donald J. Trump is easy. For some people, impeachment is about high Constitutional questions. For others, it’s about the balance of power between Congress and the White House. But for the wily Republican from Kentucky, it’s about something much more parochial: control of the United States Senate.

For McConnell, that means ensuring each Republican Senator facing an electoral challenge this year uses his or her moment as a Trump juror to maximum political advantage. In some cases, that means protecting centrists by letting them push to mirror the structure of Bill Clinton’s 1999 impeachment trial. In others, it means giving those facing primaries or short of campaign cash an opportunity to take a star turn in Trump’s defense, raising their profile and boosting fundraising.

The first day of the Senate impeachment trial shows how the high stakes fight is testing McConnell’s abilities to manage his conference’s diverse needs. Late Monday night, McConnell released his draft resolution for an accelerated trial procedure that would have meant middle-of-the-night votes and a speedier end to the theatrics on Capitol Hill. That would help election year Senators eager to be seen as hardline backers of Trump, like Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Sen. David Perdue of Georgia.

But Sen. Susan Collins, the Maine moderate facing a tough re-election race in November, objected. “My boss and others raised concerns,” says a Collins spokesperson. On Tuesday, when McConnell finally submitted the final rules package, hand-written edits moved the length of opening statements from two to three days, and changed how evidence collected in the House would be treated, increasing the scrutiny to which Trump will be subjected during the trial.

The White House wanted the trial to be condensed to two, 12-hour days and that was the plan as the day began on Tuesday, said a person familiar with the White House legal team. McConnell went along with that request, but when some Senate Republicans pushed back during lunch Tuesday, McConnell acquiesced and the White House said three days would be fine as long as the GOP stayed united, the person said.

Ultimately, McConnell has one immutable truth working to his advantage as he tries to hold his conference together. All Republican Senators share with him the goal of continuing GOP control of the Senate, as that control translates into power of committees that boosts their ability to deliver for constituents, raise campaign cash and win campaigns in 2020 and beyond.

McConnell, for his part, has made no apologies about his role. As he put it on Dec. 17: “I’m not an impartial juror. This is a political process. There is not anything judicial about it. Impeachment is a political decision.” And for McConnell, who in 2018 became the longest serving GOP Senate Leader in history, the most important political priority is holding onto power.

McConnell has been following the north star of Senate control from the start of the impeachment process. On Oct. 16, fully 98 days before the Senate trial would begin in earnest, McConnell gathered Senate Republicans for a buffet briefing in the Mansfield Room steps from the Senate chamber. Walking through a PowerPoint presentation, McConnell and Sen. Lindsey Graham, who served as a House-appointed prosecutor during Bill Clinton’s 1999 trial in the Senate, explained the nuts and bolts of how impeachment plays out and what the Senate rules require. Some of the most robust Trump defenders asked about dismissing impeachment out-of-hand if it arrived in the Senate. McConnell told them the rules required the Senate to consider the charges, a position that protected the centrists.

If Trump had counted on McConnell to be a loyal ally in the Senate, he made a safe bet, but mostly because McConnell knew that doing so was in his and his party’s interests. McConnell routinely ignored questions about Trump’s latest impeachment provocations. He refused to engage on questions if it were appropriate for Trump to solicit foreign help for his domestic re-election bid. In the face of government funding deadlines, he guided Republicans to pass spending bills that comported with Trump’s demands.

Along the way, there were moments that called for breaking with Trump. On Sept. 24, McConnell allowed passage of a non-binding resolution asking the Trump Administration to share a whistleblower complaint that flagged for the Intelligence Community’s watchdog the Washington-Kiev call. At the same time, he took to the Senate floor to urge the Secretaries of Defense and State to release whatever aid Trump had delayed. And when Trump on Oct. 3 asserted that McConnell had told him the call to Kiev was “the most innocent phone call that I’ve read,” McConnell’s staff refused to comment for weeks. Then, on Oct. 22, reporters asked McConnell point-blank about the President’s characterization and McConnell left Trump hanging. “We’ve not had any conversations on that subject,” McConnell told reporters at the Capitol.

The daylight between the pair allowed McConnell’s moderate middle to stakeout a position apart from Trump, whose conduct left many of those suburban voters who broke for Trump in 2016 backing Democrats in 2018. McConnell needs a collation that includes Collins, Colorado’s Cory Gardner and Arizona’s Martha McSally alike if he’s to hold his power, and that means giving them the occasional gap from Trump orthodoxy.

But for the most part, it has been robust defense of Trump that has been in McConnell’s interests. Trump is expected to dominate the political landscape for the next 11 months, and Republicans are wise to link arms with the Republican expected to spend more cash on ads, offices and staff than any other figure in the GOP. The trickle-down help to Senate, House and local candidates cannot be denied; when a volunteer knocks on a door for Trump in the suburbs of Portland, Maine, Collins also wants that helper to have kind words for her, too. Too strong a defection on her part could choke off the backing from Trump, who also controls the Republican National Committee’s spending.

It is because all Republican Senators benefit from McConnell’s success in his strategy that he has been able to keep them on board. And on Jan. 7, as the Senate convened for the first full day of 2020, McConnell made clear he had a firm hold over his conference, even those who may have been inclined to split such as Collins or Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who doesn’t face voters until 2022 and carries her own independent streak. Standing on the same Minton tile that the House impeachment managers would march across, nine days later with articles in-hand, McConnell defiantly declared: “We have the votes.” Which meant, at least at that point, he still had control.

As the trial began in earnest on Jan. 21, McConnell seemed still to be holding together his conference. He made enough hand-written edits to the rules package to keep his Republicans in agreement, at least for the moment, and told lawmakers that he would consider changes to the process after hearing both sides’ opening arguments and Senators’ 16 hours of written questioning.

Even McConnell’s critics expect him to remain formidable. “Anything that requires 51 votes, if he keeps his caucus together, he will win,” Sen. Mazie Hirono, a Hawaii Democrat, told TIME just moments before the trial got underway. “He’s going to push through whatever he wants.” McConnell would sleep much easier if such were guaranteed to be the case by the time the trial ends.

Biden comments trigger renewed scrutiny of his record on race

Biden comments trigger renewed scrutiny of his record on race

2020 elections

‘One thing I hope we’ve learned from 2016 is that it’s not just enough to speak to Republican voters,’ says Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Joe Biden has boasted on the campaign trail that he knows how to make government work again, pointing out that he even got things done with Southern segregationists decades ago.

But rather than bolster his image as an effective pragmatist, Biden’s parables of working with long-dead Dixiecrats have started to reinforce two of his biggest liabilities: his age and his record on race.

Story Continued Below

A 76-year-old centrist who spent 36 years in the Senate before serving as vice president, Biden was already out of step with the Democratic Party’s left wing, which wants a fresh face, a woman, a candidate of color or at least an unapologetic progressive torch-bearer.

Now, just a week before the first debate of the presidential campaign, the criticisms from progressives and Biden’s opponents have begun to mount. The backlash came after Biden told donors Tuesday night about how he worked with racist lawmakers like Georgia Sen. “Herman Talmadge, one of the meanest guys I ever knew, you go down the list of all these guys.”

Biden, imitating a thick Southern drawl, recalled how Mississippi Sen. James Eastland called him “son”, but not “boy.” Yet they worked together on legislation.

“At least there was some civility. We got things done. We didn’t agree on much of anything,” Biden told the group, according to a pool report of the speech by a reporter invited to cover the fundraiser. “We got things done. We got it finished. But today, you look at the other side and you’re the enemy. Not the opposition, the enemy. We don’t talk to each other anymore.”

But today’s Democratic Party and progressive movement might not be interested in a consensus-builder. The base of the party wants a fighter.

“If you ignore racism and if you don’t address issues of race with racists, then everything is fine, right?” New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez said in an interview with POLITICO. “That’s how you work with segregationists: By not confronting the racism and their institutionalization of second-class citizenship and a lack of fully recognizing African Americans.”

In the Trump Era of politics, “civility” has become a trigger word for liberal activists who believe conservatives haven’t been fighting fair. And so the criticism of Biden was immediate: over his record, his rhetoric and a campaign schedule that’s long on high-dollar fundraisers with power brokers, short on attention to the liberal base and shot through with a brand of middle-of-the-road politics of the past.

“It’s 2019 & @JoeBiden is longing for the good old days of ‘civility” typified by James Eastland. Eastland thought my multiracial family should be illegal & that whites were entitled to ‘the pursuit of dead n*ggers,’” New York Mayor Bill deBlasio, a white Democratic presidential candidate who has a black wife, wrote on Twitter.

“It’s past time for apologies or evolution from @JoeBiden,” the mayor wrote. “He repeatedly demonstrates that he is out of step with the values of the modern Democratic Party.”

New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, an African-American presidential candidate, issued a press statement blasting Biden for “praising segregationists” and said “you don’t joke about calling black men ‘boys.’ Men like James O. Eastland used words like that, and the racist policies that accompanied them, to perpetuate white supremacy and strip black Americans of our very humanity.”

Booker isn’t the only one who’s advised Biden not to mention segregationists. One Biden campaign source said it has been “a point of contention” with Biden, “but there’s only so much we can do. This is his decision.”

A Biden adviser said the candidate has nothing to apologize for and said the campaign hoped he would be attacked at next week’s debate on Miami.

“This is an election about beating Donald Trump, not being Donald Trump,” the adviser, who spoke without permission from the campaign, said. “If they want to criticize civility and decency and effectiveness, they’re just like President Trump.”

Another source with Biden’s campaign dismissed the criticisms as a politically motivated effort by rivals to gain ground on the frontrunner. The person noted that Biden is popular with African-American voters, many of whom appreciated his time as the loyal vice president to the first black president, Barack Obama.

In a nod to Biden’s popularity with African-Americans, several members of the Congressional Black Caucus stood by him, including South Carolina Rep. James Clyburn, who is holding his “famous fish fry” this weekend in the first-in-the-South state where Biden is dominating.

But one young African-American activist said the black caucus is out of touch with the base of the party and young voters of color when it comes to Biden.

“He’s not strong with young folks. He’s not talking to us. He has shown no growth. He is the same person he was a million years ago,” said Nailah Summers, an activist with Dream Defenders, which advocates for young people of color and supported the Florida Democrats’ most progressive nominee ever for governor, Andrew Gillum, last year.

For activists like Summers, the opposition to Biden is rooted not in his bio but in his record, including his authorship of the 1994 crime bill, which contributed to mass incarceration and the disproportionate jailing of minorities.

“Young people faced the effects of the ’94 crime bill in our homes,” Summer said. “People were disappearing from our homes — our parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters — and he’s calling it just an ‘overcorrection’. There’s no real apology.”

In addition, Biden had criticized integration-era busing in the early 1970s and for decades supported the war on drugs. He spearheaded a 1984 civil-forfeiture bill with South Carolina Sen. Strom Thurmond, the segregationist who gave the longest filibuster in the chamber’s history to block civil rights legislation in 1957. Biden eulogized Thurmond at his funeral.

Even before becoming a candidate, Biden brought up Thurmond, Talmadge, North Carolina Sen. Jesse Helms and Eastland, whose Southern accent Biden also imitated during a speech in January where he delivered a similar message about working with unsavory lawmakers.

Biden recalled that speech how he, as a young senator in the 1970s, called Helms an “awful heartless guy [with] no redeeming social value.” Biden, who was ripping Helms over his opposition to a bill to help the disabled, recalled that he was chastised by then-Majority Leader Mike Mansfield.

“It’s always appropriate to question another man or woman’s judgment. It’s never appropriate to question their motive because you don’t know what their motive is,” Biden said Mansfield told him, explaining that questioning motives and making personal attacks makes it almost impossible to reach consensus in Congress.

Beyond the righteousness of confronting racists, Ocasio-Cortez said she was “absolutely” concerned that Biden’s stances and rhetoric have been too conservative to excite the coalition of young, nonwhite and woke white voters who are energizing the party.

Biden’s refusal to apologize to Anita Hill for the way she was treated in the 1991 Supreme Court nomination hearings for Republican Clarence Thomas is still a point of contention. His reversals on the so-called Hyde Amendment, concerning publicly funding abortions, was controversial.

And, Ocasio-Cortez said, Biden’s penchant for gaffes and insensitive comments — he once remarked about the ethnicity of gas station attendants and had marveled at how “clean” and “articulate” Obama was in 2008 — could also prove problematic.

“Between this, between the Hyde Amendment, concerning comments towards women, towards African-American people — it justly creates anxiety if there’s going to be tone-deaf comments towards immigrants, towards Latin American people, towards LGBTQ communities,” she said.

“One thing I hope we’ve learned from 2016 is that it’s not just enough to speak to Republican voters, we need to speak to people who are so jaded about politicians that they need to believe that someone will fight for them.”
