"What are you doing here?"
You probably have to be a "Doctor Who" fan to enjoy this compilation, which the creator reportedly spent seven months assembling. Posted for Nausher, the only Dr. Who fan I know. (found at Kottke)
Wow. That was a trip down memory lane. I remember getting to stay up late on Saturday nights with my Dad in order to watch Doctor Who. I started off with John Pertwee, then moved to my favorite, Tom Baker. I did like Peter Davison, but stopped watching during Colin Baker's tenure. It was fun eight minutes, though I do have to wonder how the culture that produced Shakespeare, Keats, Tennyson, and Marlowe could have such horrible script writing! LOL
Yes, Tom Baker was such a hoot. "Do you want a Jelly Baby?"
The new incarnation with Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant have been great additions to the tradition - and the writing HAS improved. Yes, some of the writing had been godawful - but Tom Baker made them so much fun for so long.
