I had a friend that went on and on about the show he was into the cheese that was put out in the 80's so I watched a few of them with the daleks and then with the iron man knock off. Then an evil doctor episode trying to sample several different encarnations. Then sat through some seriously tedious chats. When I began to question the cannon (par for the course) the self appointed monks/keepers of the good doctors mythos lost their minds. If I wanted to be apart of crap like that I'd join the Catholic Church.

RE: The new Doctor
Is there any way you could be more specific? I genuinely can't follow your phrasing. Iron man knock off? Evil Doctor episode? Tedious chats?

Not to mention that it's possible simply to observe without being "apart of" something.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Sorry no. It's been a few years.

I like the outfit. I think it's the pose that makes it look a bit silly; but obviously that's to mirror that Pertwee image.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Capaldi in the role. When I was at the 50th Celebration Convention in November, practically every panel made a mention of how great Capaldi is going to be. Matt Smith in particular made me laugh when he said that Capaldi "is going to smash the shhhhi- err, something polite out of it." lol

As for more sex, while I don't think there's anything wrong with kids seeing some sexual content, I don't think the BBC should be adding more sex to Kids TV.

Ah Tom Baker, the definitive article. Sam and I met him a couple of times. He was definitely her favourite and she was over the moon to speak to him. In fact, one of the times he met us he was sitting next to Nick "The Brig" Courtney, both autographing away. We got chatting to them, Brig being rather distracted the while. Anyway, while Tom signed some photos for us, we got into an exchange something like this:

Tom: Who shall I make this out to?

Sam: Steven and Sam.

Tom: Is that with a 'ph' or a 'v'?

Me: 'V'. The transatlantic spelling.

Nick: [realising] Ah, who's this for?

Me: Steven. With a 'V'

Sam: And Sam.

Tom: [pointedly, to Nick] With an 'S'.

Nick: This is turning into a skit, isn't it?

Top blokes - both of them.

@Drich: Never mind, just wanted to be clear what you mean. For once, says the devil in me.
