See here http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/episodes/20...s/s3_06/12.html We were very impressed that Dr Who managed to kill the monster by playing the organ loudly, something I must practice in future......... And as for using a sonic screwdriver to start the blowers - don't Timelords know how to use on/off buttons? G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone knows that Daleks can't get up spiral stairs. Still, I suppose that killing the electronic dustbins off is better than ducking everytime they fire a volley and shout "Exterminate! Exterminate!" On second thoughts, I think I would rather take my chances with a Dalek than with a number of clergymen with whom I have had the misfortune to work. x x x xxxxx xx===< xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxx 0 0 This is not a Dyson!

It's been a while. They were in black & white then. MM 'Have just watched the BBC 3 re run - why was the console music desk replaced by a mirror I wonder? AJJ ============================ I think the link would be that Gerard Hoffnung cartoon of the organist, with the police-car in the mirror.

Stephen Dutfield Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Isn't the Tardis a police-box with a blue flashing-light on top of it? MM Indeed it is - and it's currently standing about a one minute walk from where I'm sitting! Incidentally, did anyone else notice that despite the supposed setting of Saturday's action being Southwark, there was a delightfully accurate model of Wells Cathedral sitting in the office of Professor Lazarus?

S ========================== Well, you'd have thought, wouldn't you, that the Tardis would be able to match the Daleks and become a modern-day "Flying Squad?" As for the moving cathedral, I suppose you could put that down to plate tectonics and the passage of time. I'm not quite sure where that would leave Southwark Cathedral.....Eindhoven at a guess!

Guest Psalm 78 v.67 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Does anyone share by opinion that the Doctor's latest "companion" is the fittest ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Robinson Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Does anyone share by opinion that the Doctor's latest "companion" is the fittest ever? No way! That would have been Leila (? spelling ? name) - the 'cavegirl' from way back. Mind you, she's probably past her 'sell by date' by now. Still, memories...

I'm certainly not saying the Piper wasn't (isn't) fit, but I think (can't remember her name let alone how to spell it) has a certain something. Mmm - Leila; I'd forgotten her.

It turned out I was right, but she didn't want "her" adoring public to know this: hence the flying-handbag and the empty gin-bottle hurled at my head.

Vox Humana Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Sounds very similar to what once happened to a chap I used to know. Boarding a London bus he thought he recognised someone prominent in early music. "Excuse me", he said, "aren't you Mary Remnant?" Presumably the lady only heard the last word, for she promptly gave him a resounding slap in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
