and how he activated the TARDIS, after the new production team come up!

I loved those bits too. One of the running bits I liked was the presentation of the actors to the press each year. It also annoyed me a bit when they did the one for Season 4, with Hartnell, Anneke Wills and Michael Craze. The actor portraying Craze towers over the other two, when in fact he was famously quite short. Watch any of those episodes and you'll see that the top of Ben's head is about on a level with Polly's eyes.

Of course I got the joke, but for a few time, people will still refer to Ecclestone, Tennant and Smith as the 9th, 10 and 11th!

Well, I only notice the mini skirt, legs and face of the actress, not the size of the male actor...!

My reaction to that bit was: 'No no no no no no no no!'

Later, I realised that he looked like the XO from [I]Das Boot[/I.

Story was a bit slow but good and it was great to see Tom Baker right near the end.

Info on Xmas.

SPOILER ALERT MUCH???

Rhodes · 11-27-13, 02:29 PM

Didn't you said something about spoilers...

Ah, here it is:
"11-24-2013 11:16 PM Sailor Steve: Spoilers? They don't bother me a bit."

And Steed is lying, Tom Baker didn't appear on the ep!

Yeah, I don't know what STEED's on about. I didn't see Tom Baker at all.

He may have been pulling your leg.

I've already seen it. I was just giving STEED grief.

Would you like to borrow my copy? Or maybe my glasses?

The way you reacted, I didn't think you'd seen it, so I was trying to trick you
