New Dr Who, illegally dl'd for your pleasure

[burntcopper]

Continuing reaction throughout the ep : WTF?

Other reactions being giggles, '....' and 'my god, it really is family viewing.' (family and kiddyhood viewing on UK tv always being slightly weird and off-centre) Ecclestone as the Doctor is much the same. Innocent/fool factor, terribly nuts, efficient, impatient with the world and very gleeful.

The effects are terribly crap. But we forgive them. You know you want to watch it.

*peeks out from behind sofa*

So, I take it this isn't a repeat of the 'Oh Doctor, you're PAUL MCGANN! *sexx0R*' disaster of 1994? 'Cause... I could get the Dr Who lurrve back y'know? So long as the effects are craptastic and Ecclestone's fully kitted out with enough jelly babies to sink a ship.

*approaches TV with caution*

Is 3 weeks long enough to prepare for the potential trauma though?

there really are enough jellybabies. Full-on 'Cake or Death?' -ness. Not even a hint of Mcgann in there. And really, they should've known that Dr Who doesn't work as a concept if you try and make sexy scientists part of it. I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping for old gravel pits at some points, though admittedly they are filming quite a bit in Cardiff, so that's almost as good.

And you know you want to d/l it. :tempts:

Ok, that's giving me nostalgic tinglies. Providing their Cybermen still can't stand gold lame and the Daleks throw a hissy at an escalator... *tingles*

You mean I can just forget the whole other kind of tinglies Teh Ecclestone has a habit of giving me? 'Cause... Rilly... That's the part that worried me. ¬.¬

Grrrrrrrrrravel pits! Oh if they would but do a bit in a gravel pit. I have missed the once ubiquitous gravel pittage location imaginativeness of British TV. *sigh* Danger UXB - gravel pit. HHG - gravel pit. Blake's Seven - gravel pit. Sharpe - UKRANIAN gravel pit.

I'm already addicted to Stargate: Atlantis, have odd compulsions to watch ye olde X Files episode in a obsessive kind of way and COULD have a serious dependency on NCIS by the end of the marathon on FX this weekend... Do I really NEED another fandomish moment of squee?

Ok, gimme the URL. *clicks fingers*

And you can never have enough fandomish squee, in my experience. Or gravel pits. Admittedly SG-1 try to make up for it with tehir ubiquitous pine forests, but it's just not the *same*. :sigh:

Oooooh goodie. *clicks*

Yes, but you do have to respect and admire the fact that the SG-1 gravel pit and token pine forest has been a stalwart of 80+ episodes of XF, MacGyver AND is currently doing a good run with Stargate: Atlantis.

Go. Canada.

Sadly, they'll never beat Dorset. They need more gravel.
