    Good job he didn't say "I'm still not black" eh
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

      Chris Evans for next Doctor Who?

      Great if we can get David Tennant on Radio 2 in the mornings instead.

        I did laugh at that - knowing that some bunch of gingers would have to make a big song and dance about it. My guess is that it's an 'in' joke to get back at Ann Robinson for her anti-Welsh comment (remember the Dr. Who production team are very Welsh).

          Wonder if Russell Davies would have liked

          "Still not a shirt lifter!"
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            When he turned into Tennant, he said "I'm still not ginger, I always wanted to be ginger".

            Stupid gingers, always complaining about being persecuted.

              Mr P, who is off the titian persuasion, understood the joke and was amused by it, as he remembered that the previous incarnation of the Dr wanted to be 'ginger'.
              However the Tesco christmas cards were offensive.
              I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

                People with a problem with those need to be beaten like a ginger step-child.

                    was that a subtle reference to the ex 'Mr Piper'?

                    anyway rt Davies had Tennant cavorting with Barrowman so he had his wish.

                    Surprising we haven't had a Black Dr yet. About time, maybe a Chinese / Indian one as well?
