Stephen Fry: Doctor Who is a children's programme

[Spacecadet]

Kebab van would be more in keeping these days.

Not really, the doctor would come back to the tardis to find a post pub group of people trying to break in to serve themselves.

I think a "Join the AA Here" kiosk would be better. People tend to avoid them or at least walk past quickly whilst trying not to make eye contact with the sales guy

Re: Sylvester McCoy

WHS.

Simply dreadful, and where I stopped watching the series.

Finally - who was the only other Doctor who claimed to know how to fix the Chameleon Circuit crica 2008 - but never actually did it ?

Paul McCann said in the TV movie that he'd stopped trying to fix it because he liked the shape (or some similar wording). Christopher Eccleston said the same kind of thing.

Also Donna Noble claimed to know how to fix it, but she's not a doctor.

Well done Faqqer - all correct and Donna Noble claimed to able to fix it when she was briefly the 'Doctor Donna'- however she had her mind wiped before she could actually get round to carrying out the repairs.

I'm ever so glad I'm not so sad that I know anything much of the above

Ahem, er yes...

WGALS about Sylvester McCoy.

Tom Baker was my favourite.

The Doner Doctor would be a fantastic name for a kebab shop

I was going to write something similar recently but never got round to it.

The first DW of this series was fantastic, a total focus on the characters and their personalities, probably the best show I have seen on the BBC in quite a while, then the second episode was child snatching and show ground demons and I though hmmm, not as great. But really it is what it is, a great family show to be watched with the kids at 6 on a Saturday night with pizzas.

Now onto Stephen Fry, the guy is bedwetter , everything he has done has never been to a great standard and he has done a lot, TV acting, film acting, stage acting, comedy acting, novelist, technology journalist, documentary maker, script writer, blogger. Jeeves and Wooster was his finest moment but he was the poor relation in that part to the one Hugh played and that is why he has went on to bigger and better things.

Stephen Fry exists in this world where he thinks he can be a new Oscar Wilde and the public tell him he can be but again Oscar Wilde was important and worth listening too.

Quite why he has been given this title of national treasure is beyond me, Elton John is in the same mould but at least you can say he has done something of such a high standard that you can allow his outbursts. I wish Fry would have stayed in Europe with his bleached hair. The nation would be better off without him.

The return of Amelia Pond next week. Now she's what I call a proper Doctor's companion.
