I accept that they made it a little too camp however there is a big difference between Alpha Centuri and the Flumps or the Teletubbies.


by Ted Grant

Oh, let’s take another peek at the Doctor Who fans, shall we?

User “sparacus” is unhappy with the look of a new monster on the show:

I can’t believe that even RTD would introduce an alien into the series that makes the Mr Men & Teletubbies look mature. If its true then these ‘creations’ will rank as the worst aliens in the Who canon.

What follows is a long conversation between “sparacus” and other board users on the “seriousness” of other Who-monsters and, well, how much better than the actual show “sparacus” thinks his fan-fiction is…

If they are real ‘monsters’ then words fail me. They look like something off a Kelloggs Cornflake ad aimed at kids or some pre-school programme. I accept that the context of the episode could be better than their appearance suggests , after all the Candyman looked ridiculous but ‘The Happiness Patrol’ as a story was good. However these risible things make the Clangers look intimidating and mature.

The point is that still image or not they look ridiculous. Clearly the production team (assuming they arn’t a hoax) think that they will appeal to young children. Fine. But Doctor Who is not a Cbeebies programme for the 2-5 age group. This is the programme that gave us the Daleks, Morbius, Sutekh…..

The Slitheen were a rubbery, blubbery disaster. The wind-breaking jokes were completely inappropriate for Doctor Who. I also notice that they have not been included in the new ‘Ultimate Monsters’ Battles in Times card series, so low is their status among fans.

I’m reading “Crystal”. It features Kittens clawing out a guys eyes and Tigers massacaring woman and children.

Fart jokes are inappropriate?!

Doctor Who has always featured elements of violence. Torchwood even more so. My episodes contain a degree of horror as they reflect aspects of the classic Hinchcliffe era. However I do not include characters that evoke the Mr Men or Weebles.

Political correctness and representation of minorities is sweeping across Britain and The Doctor and Ben hold the only key to stop it. But in a world where snobbery is in decline, who’s side is Ben on?

The point is that Alpha Centuri was intended to be a serious alien. It was a transgendered thing neither male or female and this is why it behaved the way it did. I accept that they made it a little too camp however there is a big difference between Alpha Centuri and the Flumps or the Teletubbies.

My characters a real people with good and bad qualities. If you compare Ben Chatham or Katie Ryan with the Slitheen or Adipose I think you will find that it isn’t the former that evoke CBBC.

Ben is a sophisticated post-modern hero with a full range of non-stereotypical character elements.

Of course not. However these Adipose things are completely unbelievable and unrealistic. Cartoony things like that couldn’t possibly exist. At least the Candyman could be explained as a robot.

This is an absolute insult to Doctor Who and I can only assume its an excercise in self-indulgent sending up of the show by the production team. I accept that small ‘humorous’ creatures in sci fi can also be convincing (think the Tribbles in Star Trek) however these Adipose are just ridiculous. Blobs of fat coming to life with cartoon mouths , why not go the whole hog and have the TARDIS land on the Clangers’ planet before Roobarb the dog joins the team for an encounter with Bagpuss and Professor Yaffle.

Insult to Doctor who? Coming from you, the bloke who thinks that the Doctor should hang out with snobbish alcoholics, who makes the Doctor come second to a scumbag, coming from the creator of Chatham. It’s just a joke.

And have you just presented us with the plan for your next fanfic?

My stories maintain the integrity of Doctor Who. Whether you like Ben Chatham or not, he is still a serious character. Thiese things however are pre-school.

Part of me is hoping that “sparacus” is fully committed to an elaborate hoax, that he’s only pretending to play the pretentious fan-fic writer who thinks he can do better than the people who are actually paid to do the show for a living, but, well…



With the help of the space jockeys we take out the planet or if they don’t wanna help we fight them too!


by Sluggo, Agent of N.A.N.C.Y.

Your bogus film news with spelling errors aplenty for the day:

“Alien 5: Genocide : Ripleys Back 2008
Ripleys back for one last showdown with the xenomorphs in Alien 5 : Genocide.

“At the far reaches of the universe a scientific way station is in posession of the last surviving Xenomorph. when the company discover the new breed they track down the Aliens homeworld and take the Alien back home intent on creating an unstopable Army. Back on earth an elite group of rebels led by General Ripley 8 take action, following the company to the Alien homeworld to destroy the species forever. and For Ripley this really is personel

“TEASER POSTER”
[fake link to nonexistent image redacted]

One respondent refutes the theoretical existence of said fifth installment with a pithy rejoinder:

There is no Alien 5 fool

Another denier:

ya definately fake plus it would be Alien 5: Xenocide as the xenomorphs are aliens and chicks gotta be what 50 in real life?

A little intrepid investigation reveals the logical flaw undermining this exciting claim:

and plus if it wuz to come out it would be in 2007 cause i looked it up

Some feel that even the possibility of the series being continued is a bad idea:

The alien series is dead. It died with 4. And then the corpse was kicked a few times with Avp. The only alien movie that would spark my interest is if they ditched Ripley. The title of these movies is “Alien” not “Ripley’s Adventures”.

the aliens series is dead, can´t see any more being made except the AVP story

Who gives a shit. All i need to hear is that weaver is returning to know that it will be utter shit.

One person explains why the series had already gone on one film too many:

This sounds like a really bad idea for them to make more alien movies it ended with four which think should not have been made anyway due to the fact that they put the stupid grey alien it.

However, if one were to happen, some folks know what they want to see:

no way not another one god but if they did they should make a new alein like the alien king the bigger and badder one that could kill a queen

Another person goes into more detail. A lot more detail. By which I mean a LOT more detail:

I may be bold but this is how it should go… ALIEN ANNIHILATION: Call takes Ripley to see Bishop. We find out that Bishop was taken from Fury 161 and rebuilt by Weyland-Yutani to find out if he knows anything of use. Turns out Bishop designed the second-gen droids. Ripley, being half alien starts to have nightmares and realizes that she is sensing the hive from a great distance…something calling her. Ripley, Bishop and Call go to the government and make them realize the threat of these creatures and that they must be destroyed. We send Ripley, Bishop, Call, the other second-gen droids and a crapload of space marines to wipe them out. Ripley uses her connection to the hive to find the space jockey planet along with some major fire power and an armada. With the help of the space jockeys we take out the planet or if they don’t wanna help we fight them too! The Queen could be bad-ass because she came out of one of the space jockeys. She would be a little different of a design and a helluvalot bigger. Let Ripley and the Queen showdown and let Ripley take out the aliens and the planet along with herself for total annihilation. Because as long as Ripley lives, she could be captured and the aliens could be brought back. BAM! There’s your film. It would kick ass, especially with Scott and Cameron involved and it would let Ripley go out with the bang she deserves. No weepy death scene like ALIEN 3.

And that was only half that person’s post, by the way.



yeh fine they can kiss and have a relationship but why so much? BBC Wales should give a thought to those wathing with their dads!


by Ted Grant

If there’s one thing a Doctor Who fan hates, it’s the suggestion that a fictional character has a sex life. The only thing that could make the situation worse if if that’s a male character having sex with another man, as happened on a recent episode of Who spin-off Torchwood:

I felt it was totally irrelevant and gratuitous. One of RTD’s tiresome attempts to introduce something simply for shock value but it let the whole episode down.

I personally disliked the Jack/Ianto scene, it was unneccesery & quite obviously shoehorned into the episode to please all the “shipper” fans of TW.

Pathetic and uncalled for

I thought this bit was utterly terrible and honestly just there to titillate the fangirls. What disturbed me was how casually the shift was from denying the search for missing children and wanting to get back to shagging Ianto.

So unnecessary. yeh fine they can kiss and have a relationship but why so much? BBC Wales should give a thought to those wathing with their dads!

Pretty disgusting really the BBC spending license payers money to produce porn. A handful of decades back people wouldn’t have stood for that kind of filth.

Another silly thing about the show today is the constant shoehorning in of interacial marriages/relationships/etc. I personally don’t care what race someone I date is of, but in general people tend to stick to their own race in society. Off the top of my head we’ve seen:

Mickey/Rose
Martha’s sister/Lazarus
Donna/Lance
Foon/Morvin
Adeola/Boyfriend
Martha’s Dad/Girfriend
Black man trying to romance Sally Sparrow in Blink
Martha/Tom

Well, that’s all very well and good, but it’s too darned civil! This is Doctor Who fandom, people! Why haven’t any of you brought the crazy?

It is also Racist. Where are the black and asian (UK asian not US asian) people working in Torchwood. The percentage of black and asian people in Wales far exceeds the GLB groups (according to the office of statistics from the last censors that gave results).

Ah, there we go, a claim that showing a male/male sex scene is racist. I feel like my understanding of how the world works has been restored.



I’ll be over at Aint It Cool News where the right to free speech is still enforced. You cocksm’kers! Get the duck sauce out of your ears.


by Brought to you by Carl's, Jr.

It’s true that established film critics are slowly losing ground as print publications’ markets shrink. One of the latest to get the axe is Newsweek critic David Ansen, a truly sane and entertaining voice that will be missed by many. I saw this announced on Rotten Tomatoes, a site I hardly ever visit, and, because I’m a moron, I decided to check the comments.

Now instead of getting a boring old 2007 BMW they can now afford the 2008 series.

Kind of an obtuse line. The OP misinterprets:

he point is not that he’s being replaced by a “2008 series” but that his position and that of tons more critics around the country is being eradicated. It won’t be upgrading an old model, it’ll be making everyone (readers) drive the exact same car.


Okay, a simple misunderstanding. Happens all the time. But the internet wouldn’t be the internet if it couldn’t turn an acknowledged misunderstanding into an instantly over-the-top flamewar.

you two no speaka english…I make interesting comments that add fuel to the fire not this boring politically correct disney sh’t, please! When I said they can afford the 2008 series I mean’t Newsday, Newsweek and village voice execs not the critics that got booted, who gives a sh’t about them! I can watch movies on my own and make my own opinions and not rely on people like Mr. Ansen here. I’m my own man I don’t need this guy telling me what’s good! I’ll be over at Aint It Cool News where the right to free speech is still enforced. You cocksm’kers! Get the duck sauce out of your ears.

Why a person who doesn’t give “a sh’t” about movie critics feels the need to visit and comment on a site like Rotten Tomatoes—and raise a voice in support of critics—is something that goes unasked and unanswered.

Wait, he’s back!

Minderbinder here’s another fagg’t. Did I hurt your feelings? You remind me of my girlfriend when she’s on her period. Wahhhh! I can’t post on RT cause this kid is annoying WAHHHHH!!! Get over it’s a silly bullsh*t forum board. You come here to talk sh”t and say what you want. And Dahluzz i don’t even know you but if you want to be down with these fagg’ts then f’ck you too. You muthaf’ckas can’t be us or see us. East side! Peace bitches

And now you know why I would rather chew my own testicles off than visit Ain’t It Cool News. Imagine an entire board… of that.



…Does anyone really support reparations? This is the same thing.


by Sluggo, Agent of N.A.N.C.Y.

One of the great screwings in the history of the comic book industry is that of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the creators of Superman. Selling their creation for a pittance in 1938, the two lived in near-poverty for decades while watching their brainchild rake in millions for the publisher, DC Comics. It wasn’t until the late ’70s, when the big-budget Superman movie was about to be released, that DC, afraid of a public backlash against the film if it were found out how Superman’s creators had been treated, finally was shamed into paying both Siegel and Shuster a yearly sum.

Recently, after many a hearing and court session, the copyright to the very first Superman story in Action Comics #1 was awarded to Siegel’s surviving family, which will likely lead to even more money going in the direction of the creator, or at least his estate. This is a Good Thing, another step in redressing the treatment of the men who essentially created the modern comic book industry.

Of course, some fans think otherwise. Like this fella:

…Oh boy. Another disaster brought on by Siegel heir greed. The last money grab they pulled off resulted in Superboy getting axed, now I can see DC panicking and start monkeying around with the Big Red S to change him enough so that he’s no longer anything that resembles Superman.

Enough is enough. Get a judge in on this mess that understands a) copyright law, and b) the fans are more important than a couple of greedy grandkids!

And there are a few folks in this comics blog discussion who also believe those two guys got more than enough from their creation, and should certainly not have been concerned about providing for their families:

Why they sold the rights they shouldnt get anything.

They shouldnt even get royalties they gave up that when they signed over the rights.

THEY SIGNED THE RIGHTS AWAY NOT WITH A GUN TO THEIR HEAD AND NOT ONCE BUT TWICE WHEN THEY SETTLED IN COURT IN 1948. ENOUGH ALREADY.

Gimme a break. They were paid in 1938. They were paid off in 1968. Again in 1978. They kept taking the money and suing again, Time Warner will keep this tied up for decades and that’s good.

As the end consumers.. we will be the ones paying for this. Keep this in mind next time comics prices rise, or your favorite book gets cancelled because it’s not selling well enough (less profit = less flexibility), or when they decide that making a Superman Movie or cartoon is not financially viable because of ‘licensing’ fees.

Superman
Created by Siegel and Shuster
Raised by DC
Killed by the Siegels

How greedy are the Siegels anyway. What they’re doing is killing the character that their father co-created. Yes, Siegel and Shuster should have been taken care of WHEN THEY WERE ALIVE. They’re not. Why should their kids be profiting off of their deceased parents?

Someone threw out the ’slave argument’ but at the risk of getting politically incorrect, does anyone really support reparations? This is the same thing.



the citizens of Jericho will have to live, fight and die for their freedom


by Charlie Bebattica

After a brief fan-influenced stay of execution, CBS has decided to cancel Jericho, its post-nuke and civil insurrection-themed answer to Lost, again. Over at Yahoo’s messageboard dedicated to the series, the the fan response unfolds pretty much as expected.

From “Mare Cad TITAN”:

JERICHO…SHOULD…NOT…HAVE BEEN

CANCELLED !!! CBS HAS SAWDUST FOR

BRAINS !!! BOYCOTT ALL OF THEIR SPONSORS.

What are those dorkoz going to do, another fake “reality” show ??? Jerkoz !!!

Dorkoz and jerkoz? Wow, that’s pulling out all the stops.

From “william m”:

CBS EXECS ARE TAKING TRAINING FROM FOX EXECS. JERICHO IS ONE OF THE ONLY SHOWS ON TODAY THAT HAS THE DRAW OF”24″. WHAT ARE THEY REPLACING IT WITH BIG BROTHER 2 OR ANOTHER MINDLESS < AND CHEAP TO PRODUCE> GAME SHOW. WON’T ANY THINKING TV EXEC BUY THIS SHOW-PLEASE!!!

The difference between Jericho and 24? Or Jericho and Big Brother, for that matter? A viably-sized viewership.

“Shoes S” evokes the predictably hoary exception that proves the rule:

Unbelievable. I can only hope they’ll make a movie now. Don’t lose all hope. Remember, Star Trek was on only two seasons and has been cranking out movies for 40 years now, not to mention spin-offs. Find out who the directors and producers are and contact them. Maybe we can get cable to pick up this unique show.
Unless the old US government emerges from the ashes, I’d presume the citizens of Jericho will have to live, fight and die for their freedom the same as they have for the last two years.

Honestly, if Jericho develops an afterlife fan following as widespread and entrenched as Star Trek has, I will eat my hat — and I wear a wide-brimmed sombrero. Also, if Star Trek fans are called “Trekkies,” would that mean that Jericho fans are “Jerkies”?

“Roy M” keeps it short and elegant:

cbs sucks

Way to speak truth to power, buddy.

“Stayfunny” blames society:

It’s the masses that aren’t intelligent enough to catch a show like this, get my drift?

People who post on Yahoo messageboards shouldn’t make snide conclusions about relative intelligence levels.

Finally, “The Everyday Guy” chimes in with a touch of rare class:

EVERYBODY GETS BUTT-RAPED!!! WHAT AN ENDING.

LOLZ.

Some days it’s like shooting fish in a barrel, I tell you.



That needs to be clarified in a letter to People. and I think I am too annoyed to write it.


by evilolive

The folks at mothering.com weigh in on J-Lo’s Lack of Lactivism:

On Celebrity Babies there is part of the interview from People magazine posted and she says that she isn’t breastfeeding because her mother didn’t breastfeed. Then in the comments there are a bunch of people saying good for her for admitting she didn’t want to do it. The most brilliant comment is the one that says that if you are going to breastfeed you should do it because you enjoy it. Yeah, I know that is my reasoning in all my parenting decisions. How about breastfeeding because it’s best for the baby? Nah, too selfless.

Even if she doesn’t want to she could easily hire a wet nurse or buy BM.

You read my mind. She can hire me to wet nurse lol. At least she was honest. However, my parents made poor choices, that doesn’t mean I have to do the same. ETA: I’m just thinking about all the women who’d love to nurse but can’t or have great difficulty with it b/c they have to work. There Jennifer is, with all the money in the world doesn’t have to work another day in her life and won’t even give it a shot.

So maybe I should only change DS’s diapers if I enjoy it, huh? Then again, changing diapers “just isn’t for me,” so maybe I won’t. Unless there’s a real barrier to BF’ing, I just have a hard time seeing it as optional.

So who is going to write to People about this? Fine, she chose to FF, but what it ridiculous about her comment was “best for them”. that is the most asinine reason I have ever heard for not ffing. why doesn’t she just say she doesn’t want to use her breasts? or that she can’t stand the thought of it? or some other real reason. not because its best for *them*. its best for *HER*. duh. that needs to be clarified in a letter to People. and I think I am too annoyed to write it.



Urbanbaby on Melatonin


by evilolive

Urbanbaby forums on giving babies melatonin:

Has anyone here given db melatonin to help regulate sleep?

Don’t do this to your kid.

what do you know about it? there are several convincing studies out there that suggest tiny doses of it are beneficial especiually for preemies. the health unit in our area advocates it. i’m just wondering if anyone here has actually tried it.

ask your dr. Don’t medicate your kids by yourself

kids don’t have trouble regulating their sleep, the parents do. Don’t drug your kid.

should have known better than to ask for informed opinions here. do a little research before you give your knee-jerk response.

then consult your doctor like any responsible parent would. When he is old enough, you can just do alcohol instead.

op: the studies actually indicate that preemies have a deficiency of melatonin that persists much longer than it would for a full term baby. it’s not to drug the baby just so that the parent can get some sleep. it’s to correct a deficiency under medical supervision so that the db can continue to develop normally. the medical studies also associate a lack of regular sleep in dbs with learning disabilities later on. this is not witch-doctory or me just being lazy. i’ have a genuine concern with the health of my child and have researched it and spoken with medical professionals. i just wanted to know if others had used it and what their experiences were. why is that so bad??

good job using google, I think your lack of sleep is proof that you already have learning disabilities. GO TO SLEEP.

OP is such a concerned parent of a preemie that she is spending all her time online rather than taking care of her child. I bet her baby nurse is doing it and she is “researching”.

You bore me

Your husband tells me the same thing about you. Maybe you wouldn’t have a had a preemie if you stopped taking all of these so-called healthy supplements.

Cram it, you miserable wretch. You’re an embarrassment to yourself

Is that the best you can do? Maybe you need some st. john’s worts to calm yourself down. It is right next to the melatonin on the shelf. One for you, one for baby. Here’s to a good night’s sleep.



All of that said, and agreed with, let’s not forget dear ol’ Slaanesh


by Charlie Bebattica

The fictional future universe of the Warhammer 40k franchises is a dark and dangerous place where humanity, led by a willfully ignorant and belligerent theocratic bureaucracy, struggles to survive against all manner of threats from within and without.

So what do the people of the imaginary 41st Millennium think of homosexuality? An important question, and one brought up in this thread from Black Industries’ official 40k RPG forum.

“Sergeant Brother” gets things rolling with a request for suggestions regarding something another game master would have handled in-group:

And it made me wonder about how sex is viewed generally within the Imperium. I kinda get the impression that many professions within the Imperium are a kind of cleric who would seem to be celibate. It seems like both the Cleric and Tech Priests would be chaste and celibate, though I haven’t seen any specific mention of anything like that. I kinda feel like psykers might be too, or at least encouraged not to have sex or romantic relationships - and the player who asked me about homosexuality is playing a psyker character.

Does anybody know about any fluff sources that address the issue of sex, love, and romance in the Imperium or have any theories or feelings on what is typically expected from different careers in this regard?

…and surprisingly enough, the discussion begins rather reasonably with members attempting to extrapolate answers from two decades’ worth of contradictory officially published material. Not that there aren’t occasional hints of things to come.

“grimsnagga” evokes the Lord of Pleasure:

All of that said, and agreed with, let’s not forget dear ol’ Slaanesh, the chaos-god of BDSM. On the one hand, I think the Imperium’s approach to sexuality in general would vary depending on the culture of the world you’re on. On the other hand, wandering into the murkier side of alternative lifestyles definately runs the risk of entering into the realm of the Prince of Chaos. Therefore, I would expect behaviors of that nature would be strictly condemned and preached against.

..while “Monomachy” issues an all-caps mandate:

AS CITIZENS OF THE IMPERIUM IT IS YOUR COLLECTIVE DUTY TO REPRODUCE AND ENSURE ITS CONTINUATION.

…and “Luddite” offers an itinerary for an Imperium sex cruise:

In reality (real world)’ sexual norms are culturally derived and i see no reason why there wouldn’t be a similar disprate set of attitudes across the worlds of the Imperium.

Victori IV - heavily influenced by the Ecclesiarchy and a rigid morailty, any sex other than ‘married for procreation’ is seen as ‘dirty’ and criminalised.

Attica Primas - amod the columns and agoras, homosexuality and pederasty are the sexual norms.

Neo Jorvik - sexual promiscuity and personal choice are the norms with all forms accepted.

Drudge’s World - everyone works too hard to even consider sex…except during winter when the ‘baby-making season’ ensues as the fields cannot be tilled and there’s nothing else to do.

Xinxiang - You must have a license to commit sex…

Lolitas - consenting age is puberty, and sexual pairing is made by parent councils, with the first couplings being openly before the council…

Bonobos - the sex between all sexes is used as social bonding…

The options are entire yours to define…

Then “Heretek” decides to let the Nazis out of the bag…

True enough but after reading a particularly ignorant post I just thought I’d have my 2 cents heard… As for gays and fascist regimes… I don’t think personally it would have been an issue.. look at the ancient greeks for one, as long as you were doing your duty (which included breeding) no one cared… The Nazis were also particularly lenient when it came to this for the most part… I could suggest a few good books on it, Hitlers actual sexual preference is also an open question… so as far as being “Gay” or otherwise in a quasi fascist order can be handled what difference does it really make? there is no canon nor most likely will there will there ever be any.. Unless we get Hotties of the Soritas pin up girl calanders and Hunks of the Black Templar’s playgirl edition…lol… I mean really it just ends up being what ever one wants it to be and it should stay there.

…and just so no one gets the wrong idea, he has read books…lots of them:

I’m not ignorant to the facts, to the contrary I’ve done a considerable amount of reading and research on the subject of the sexual politics and fascism, the ideas I’ve read expressed on fascism, in this forum in general is a Anglo demonization of the fascist movement, it’s not 1942 anymore please stop with the wartime propaganda that has already been disproved… anyway I’m not responding to this anymore since it’s a history lesson nor am I implying that fascists are nice people, nor denying the holocaust or that the gay movement and Nazism had anything to do with one another except that individuals who were gay were both involved and prospered in fascist states…

It’s a shame the moderators temp-banned him after that, I had the feeling he was just getting warmed up…



The truth outs in the end.


by Ted Grant

Doctor Who fans are crazy. This makes perfect sense when you consider the longevity of the show. They’ve had more time to develop and nurture the crazy than almost any other nerd-attracting program. And the best illustration of this are the arguements. You see, the less important an issue becomes, the more loudly people will argue about it. Take, for example, the raging debate over whether or not the upcoming series of the show is the fourth series or not.

All this series 4 nonsense should now be washed away. Honestly who can call a series series 4 when 29 series have preceeded it?

The same stupid BBC that rejected Red Dwarf IX. The same stupid BBC that cancelled Doctor Who in the first place. The same BBC that panders to thugs etc by being so politically correct.

Why not? If Red Dwarf came back should it be called series one again? If Men Behaving Badly came back should that be series one again? The facts are it’s the same series not a reset or anything like that so it is Season/Series/Whatever 30. It makes perfect sense. Having Series One follow Season 26, Dimensions in Time, TV Movie is absurd.

But it is SERIES FOUR, because that is what BBC Wales, the people who are actually making it are calling it. The fact that DWM called it Series 30 once, in a headline of article about SERIES FOUR is just a coincidence. It will remain the thirtieth series of something called Doctor Who but its official title is Series Four. Fans can call it what they like, but it remains Series Four.

Twaddle you can’t call it the 4TH SERIES/SERIES 4 BECAUSE THAT WAS ON IN THE 1960S ABSOLUTE RUBBISH i DON’T CARE WHat bbc Wales say they have no right to reset the numbering they didn’t create Doctor Who.

Doesn’t matter what the BBC are calling it. There have been 29 seasons prior to this one. It’s 30.

Ever wondered why Dr Who fans have a reputation for being uptight, anal, unbalanced obsessives?

The only reason they’ve adopted the ludicrous new numbering is because they stupidly think the audience will be confused by reminders that the show has been around so long. It’s disrespectful to a British institution .

I’m really, really sorry for you that you haven’t got the version of the show back that you want, but I‘m tired of hearing you bleat on and on and on about it. Can’t you stop being quite so bloody selfish and appreciate how much a hell of a lot of other people are enjoying it?
