for Dr WHo tragics

I would have to say that this series is far better than the tom baker series back in the 70/80’s and I thought that was great. It is absolutely gobsmackingly wonderful!!!!! I cannot get over the storyline being told and the detail provided. To improve on this will be difficult – but for this current crew – not impossible. Only one to go for the last episode this series…………………………

The first episode of the new season screens in NSW this Thursday night, and then is on every Saturday night thereafter.

I will miss Rose Tyler (played by Billie Piper), who I thought was a real star of the first two series. I wonder if, somehow, parallel universes can be crossed to allow some contact with the Doctor???? The sexual tension is killing me!!!

Yay, Dr Who is back. My withdrawals can be satisfied.

Yes I'm a tragic and proud of it

Dr. Who back on TV. Well it brings back memories from early eighties. I rarely watch TV now, so I don’t know what’s on. Anyone remembers Blake’s 7 (I think that’s was the name of SF serial). I really liked that one.

Yeah, Dr Who is pretty cool.
I don't mind Torchwood as well.

Patrick Trouton was the second Doctor. William Hartnett was the first

For serious tragics:- http://www.gallifreyone.com/index.php

My favourites were Patrick Troughton (Dr #2) and Tom Baker (Dr #4) - but I do remember the grainy and contrasty B/W of the first series with Dr #1 and the wobbly sets and low budget costumed space monsters! Magic to a seven year old!
