RIP Miss Shaw!

Waiting to see what the season will come up. At least all the daleks that appeared in the show will appear in this season.

For the fans: how about a cross over with Doctor Who and 007?

Don't feel bad, Gary. When I was a kid there was no Doctor Who.
:rotfl2:

I first discovered the good Doctor in 1982. Peter Davison (5) was on in Britain, but all we got here in the Colonies was Tom Baker (4) on PBS. I now own the entire series, from Hartnell to Smith, and I love 'em all. :rock:

Steve must be a fan of dodgy special effects. :hmmm:

I grew up on the tail end of Jon (Action Man) Pertwee into Tom Baker's ere. More of a fan of the retro Dr Who ere, New Doctor Who 50/50 depends how good the storyline is.

I really Liked Pertwee too, They re-ran Hartnel to Tom Baker on BBC2 in the early nineties, shortly after the show had been axed with McCoy as the last doctor.

And Dr Who came back in 1996 with Paul McGann's TV movie, unfortunately did not go down well in America and so Dr Who went back into limbo until 2005.
