calling Dr Who fans

[The-Doctor]

Thanks for that Violet Lady and Captivated.

News Flash...A Dr Who costume worn by Tom Baker sold at auction for £24,600 (about $48000) mind you this was nothing compared to the £54,000 spent by an annoymous bidder for the original cloak worn by Alec Guiness in Star Wars.

This is the link to the Craig Pilkington website. He produced various verisons of the theme tune for a couple of conventions...one of which I was able to go to. Worth a listen to.

Actually, no - it was due to start on the 24th, but has now been put back a week to the 31st. Trailers have started (there were a couple of brief teasers shown just before last night's Life on Mars).

Looking forward to it!

David.

 

[The-Doctor]

Thanks for that David, brilliant ...it means I now get to watch episode one. If it had stayed on the 24th I would have had to have recorded it and watched it later as I had the relatives coming round (non fans!)

Another website worth checking out

...they even have a link to a website that sells replicas of the costumes...I was looking at the OOD heads...until I saw the price!

Drat! DS is having some friends round for his birthday on the 24th and I was hoping to sit them all in front of the new Dr Who! Now what will I do with seven 12 year old boys!!

 

[A New Dawn]

Have them sit through the entire "Trial of a Time Lord"?

 

[The-Doctor]

I was thinking more keys to time season New Dawn...should keep them quiet!!!

On sadder news Gareth Hunt (Arak episode 1 of Planet of the spiders...and a regular in the New Avengers) has died. RIP Mr Hunt

Mm, it is good, isn't it?

Although I can't wait for it to end, just so I can find out what's happening!

(Assuming they explain everything at the end...)
