Them and Hong Kong.

Indeed! A guy I knew, Bruce G., found a copy of an early Dr Who story at a garage sale here in Auckland, and tried a bit of blackmail, he wanted thousands of £s or he would do something with it (I'm not sure what.) But the Beeb appealed to his better nature.

I can't imagine it's going to be all action either
I think they will stick to the idea's and characterization formula that made the original series such a hit .
One character I don't want to see back though is
K9
I always found him a bit irritating.
May favorite Doctor was jon pertwee.

I doubt we'll be seeing K9, it wouldn't work in modern sci-fi.

On the plus side though, a K9 toady would be able to go faster than 0.1mph.

K9 was the only reason I watched Dr Who when I was a kid. And Peter Davison when he appeared.

A Super Furry Animal Posted Mar 18, 2005
I'd like to see a K9 toady.

p.s. What *is* a K9 toady?

It's a metal dog that goes 'ribbet ribbet'.

Oh, Mina, not another one of those strange people that think PD had sex appeal. He was so... *wet*.
Dr Who

noooo.... I liked him as naughty Tristan Farhon first.

Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Mar 18, 2005
He was still a bit pathetic. I think it was his age. He'd definitely improved with time.
Dr Who

He might have been a crap Doctor, but I thought he was lovely - for reasons that probably make more sense these days. 
Oh good grief I hope it doesn't turn out that he was Doctor when I was 20 or something. 
Dr Who
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Mar 18, 2005
Err, 82 to 84, I think.
I didn't think he was a crap Doctor, I don't think any of them were. He just didn't rate on my 'fanciable' scale, that's all.
Dr Who

Oh that's a relief. I was about 13 then. I obviously liked my men pathetic then, cos he was a bit pathetic as Tristan too.

Well if you have to wait to get Dr Who in New Zealand then you might as well get it off BitTorrent. Well, I guess it depends whether you have a decent monitor or a TV-out card.

Micky, the Kelly Holmes idea just made me laugh out loud for the first time today, so thank you for that.
I tried to watch the trailers tonight & it said we can't see them on the net until next Tuesday 
Sent my brother in SA the link though & I've saved last week's RT for him too.
Mina - share entirely your feelings about PD. Seems rather strange now, though.
Mol
Woooeeeeeeeoooooooooeeeeeeeooooooooeeeeeeeoooooooooeeeeeee
