Doctor Who is Back!!!!!

And its back properly this time

Full story here and the BBC Statement on it is here

With Russell T Davis at the helm I think we can expect it to be true to the original series (except it will probably be set in Manchester

)

Me so happy

Pls can some kind adminy type person put this thread in Brit TV too

I've never really got on with the later Doctor Whos, but I love the early black and white episodes with William Hartnel and to a lesser extent Patrick Troughton (but then I've got a thing for Sixties TV in general). When it was crazy and gothic instead of camp buggeye of the week. Alan Davis is of course the man, so I'll be giving this a butchers.

Produced by BBC Wales I note: a Welsh-speaking doctor stalking the gay-bars of Manc ... hey, it wouldn't be dull!

Alan Got a message from the Great Lakes Avengers, They offered me a membership but didn't accept... they're a walking disaster... Just don't make sense at all... the worst heroes of all time, To call thems

Alan Davies as the Doctor? Hey, not what I was expecting but I like it!

The_Host The concept of 'All-You-Can-Eat' buffets has always appealed to me.

Eddie Izzard has also been mooted (well, recommended by Tom Baker, anyhoo)
