And if you freezeframe the video, the garage they apparently land in is opposite White City tube station - ie, where TV Centre is.

Well, yeah they would, but they wouldn't remember travelling with him. Didn't the Timelords only wipe their memories up to the point where they left their correct place in history? Therefore Zoe would remember Wheel in Space, and Jamie would remember The Highlanders.

They'd be no good to bring back like that though, they wouldn't remember really being friends with the Doctor.

If only Adric hadn't been killed off...

*Holding banner with the logo 'Adric Fan Club Of One' daubed in big purple letters*

Oy!

It's time to lay my cards on the table. I don't care anymore. I've read all the slagging-off he's got on here.

I liked Adric, as a young lass, in a girly way and I've got his autograph to prove how sad I was (past tense )

I liked Adric, as a young lad, in a young 'one of those' laddy kinda way, but I got no autograph.

My previous post was merely a sheep like response. I liked Adric.

*Slaps an 'Adric Fan Club' sticker onto Roymondo*

Cheers! Does that mean Adric's up for a slapping?


(I know I'm too old for him then and he's too old for me now but, well, you know, nostalgia and all that. Ooh, lay that yellow jump suit on me!)

Shall we fight for him?

Which way d'you think he'd go?!

(Obviously we're talking 'in the past' when we were both a reasonably 'right' age for him)

Actually, I was about 9 years old, so he might have been my first crush.

I don't wanna' fight (I've landed myself in a Thursdayite/Wrong'n thing on the petition thread) so can't we just share him? He was so lovely I reckon he'd go from one to the other with a loving smile.

So, you're basically calling him a tart then?

No, I think he wouldn't be able to choose between us and would, in a gentlemanly way, explain this and please both of us.

Actually, yes, I think he was probably a tart.

Adric?
A tart?

Bit three dimensional, isn't it? After Earthshock he'd have been more of a ...crepe.

Trying not to think of whipped cream and crepes...oops! have done.

That should keep JulesK and Roymondo going for a bit...

But a very hot crepe!

10 minutes and I manage to simul...hot cream and, er, oh blimey.

Back in a minute...

This may or may not make some people very happy:

I'm delighted to see that Mr. W is from not too far from my old manor, absolutely marvellous. Or as they say here, Represent da Big H!

So, he's a not up to much, so could probably do with a shoulder to cry on...

ahhh, poor ickle Drickie!

You'll have to travel to the US if you want your shoulder being used.

People seem to forget that TV is not the only fruit. Actors get steadier work in theatre than TV.

And the people in the US have probably never seen him as Adric.

Do the boy a favour and give him a quick google.

There's a Con report page on the first google results for Matthew Waterhouse with some 'recent' news. Like, for example, he now writes mystery books.

But there's more, and some rather odd gossip. Worth a look.

Gay, eh for JulesK then

But Adric may not have been

I've discovered I was 11 when he died (Can still remember how upset I was watching that episode) so it was obviously one of my earlier crushes
