Doctor Who

[Najemikon]

"Tolerable"? To be fair, the new Comic Relief special was intended to be a genuine if albeit short episode to preview the new story at Easter. This was just a very silly spoof from a time when Doctor Who was merely a fond memory. So you didn't stick it long enough to see them communicate by farting?

Well, there was no doubt it would go there.  What is it with Brits and fart jokes? I tore into Davies when commenting on his "farting trilogy" in S1 of Doctor Who, but it seems that Moffat enjoys this kind of stuff just as much.

I don't know. Except that we always seem to be able to find it very funny!

By the way, sfdebris is currently revisiting all Doctors. He also made a nice video about why a lot of early episodes are lost. His channel is also available as iTunes podcast.

Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith. 


Elisabeth Sladen died from cancer at age 63.

I posted a link in the Curtain Call thread yesterday, but actual details and tributes were not known, so here is a typical and fitting BBC article featuring a few comments from Russell T. Davies amongst others.

That was a nice article.

Great start to the new series! Followed by a nice tribute on CBBC to Elisabeth. I'll post it if I can find it.

I found a torrent. It was well done. And sad.

I have my DVR set to record the new show tonight.  I'll try to watch it later if I get the chance.  In the middle of cleaning.  Someone basically invited themselves over tomorrow.  Before I wouldn't have been...focused on the cleaning, but he went and made some comments after the last time he was over..dust on a tv screen equals filthy here I guess...never mind that his is frequently buried under dust.  So..I'm a tad...annoyed at the moment.  Anyway...I'll watch the new Doctor Who as soon as I can.

Hmph! Now I know why I never watch TV shows while they air ...
