I dressed up as David Tennants Doctor, from Doctor who tonight at a costume party. The most recognition I got was "Hey, you're that guy from that BBC show!" Seriously people, you need to watch more Doctor Who!

Dress up like John Pertwee's Doctor, and then we'll talk.

Couldn't agree more. The last episode I watched sucked 45 minutes of my lifetime away from me.

Now, Doctor Who is another story. Can't wait for the next season to start. And where the heck is Torchwood?!?

It looks like a great show and I would watch it, but I spend too much time in front of "the tube" as it is.

Top Gear horrible?

The UK version rocks
The Australian version is really bad.

And this is coming from someone who has never owned a car.

And for the record you'd have to hit a retro or antiques dealer for the jumper and scarf similar to the Tom Baker Doctor wore.

And yes I really think the Doctor is great as is everyone else on the show.

Not sure I'd go that far, but he does make a better clown than a journalist. Just because a car doesn't fit his idea of what a good car should be, doesn't mean it's "utter crap". A bit of objectivity would be welcome. I understand the constant shenanigans are part of the show, but it's difficult to glean any kind of useful information about any car mentioned on the show if it doesn't strike his fancy.
