I'm doing my usual trick and waiting for the DVD to come down in price, to a fiver or less, then I'll probably pick up a copy!<BR/><BR/>Glad you like the new header, too.TimeWardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853837867256272087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-14960358355973761052008-08-25T07:47:00.000+01:002008-08-25T07:47:00.000+01:00Haven't seen St Trinian's myself and must admit, a...Haven't seen St Trinian's myself and must admit, after the dire reviews have no desire to, bu that is an impressive banner!Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133900289384226725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-91718804141356120102008-08-25T05:18:00.000+01:002008-08-25T05:18:00.000+01:00Yeah, I read that too, Andrew.

Personally, I'd rather have one of Nicola Bryant's "Doctor Who" outfits but that's another story!!<BR/><BR/>My blog has, indeed, been overrun by hockey-stick wielding St. Trinian's schoolgirls! Definitely, not a bad thing!! And, a little more attractive than the Ood!!!<BR/><BR/>Two of the naughty nubiles, pictured in my new header, have been in "Doctor Who" recently, one this year. Does anyone know their names, their character names, and the names of the three episodes in which they appeared?TimeWardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853837867256272087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-51137408249694087342008-08-24T21:14:00.000+01:002008-08-24T21:14:00.000+01:00I read that Lord of the Rings director Peter Jacks...I read that Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson had one of Sylvester McCoy's outfits from Doctor Who and he was up for the role of Bilbo at one point ! Also I stood next to McCoy once looking at cakes in the window of Betty's in York !<BR/>As for your new banner, I've had to get the wife to bulk order me a truck load of Spill Buster ! :)Andrew Glazebrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10561008286443964427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-53680714692916011872008-08-24T04:43:00.000+01:002008-08-24T04:43:00.000+01:00I wouldn't say I'm a Sylvester McCoy "fan" as such...I wouldn't say I'm a Sylvester McCoy "fan" as such, Simon, although from what I've seen, in television interviews, he does seem to be a decent sort of a fella! I don't consider myself a devotee of any of the actors who have played the Doctor, except possibly Patrick Troughton, but I am a follower of "Doctor Who" which is why I (still) watch.<BR/><BR/>Is there any conceivable piece of casting, in the lead role, which would stop me watching? One immediately springs to mind! Were Robbie Williams to be cast as the Doctor, and it has been suggested in the past, then the Time Lord and I would part company!!TimeWardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853837867256272087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-39139399435308248692008-08-23T16:45:00.000+01:002008-08-23T16:45:00.000+01:00As you probably know Tim I'm not a major Sly McCoy...As you probably know Tim I'm not a major Sly McCoy fan either...although I do wish him a happy birthday of course! Ironically his tenure as the Dr was when I started to cease watching the show (I didn't see much of the latter two seasons). I wasn't a massive fan of his interpretation of the Doc (and the presence of Bonnie L didn't help either - nor did I like Ace much) - however maybe his period is worthy of a re-evaluation...I know the fans were of the opinion that the show was picking up in quality toward the end - sad then that it ended up getting cancelled.Old Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-85387582226325547702008-08-23T06:36:00.000+01:002008-08-23T06:36:00.000+01:00You're welcome, Steve.

He really was better than many fans give him credit for and still the same character one could respect, far politer than Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant's yob Doctors!TimeWardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853837867256272087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10873408.post-61341943401885875762008-08-20T07:14:00.000+01:002008-08-20T07:14:00.000+01:00Wow. 65 eh?

I've never been a fan of Sylvester M I'm afraid but I'd be the first to admit I've seen him in precious little... a few kid's shows I think where he seemed totally over the top and "whacky".Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133900289384226725noreply@blogger.com
