Have you seen that Doctor Who has been named as the top cult tv programme of all time. Not bad for a series which finished over ten years ago.

Full details here

Interesting to note that one of the episodes showed someone watching BBC3. Maybe that prophecy will soon come true!

Cool baby!

I absolutely love Doctor Who! But I'd better not go into too much detail here... that should be saved for a Dr Who forum I think!

As a point of interest though, there was a Dr Who story shown in 1988 which was set in England, Earth on 23rd Nov 1963 (the very day that Dr Who started). In one scene, his companion (Ace) is watching TV, and the continuity announcement strongly implies that Dr Who is about to start!

The voiceover says something like: 'Now on BBCtv, the first episode in a new science fiction series - a journey through time and space for the mysterious Doc...' (We then cut away to another scene before we hear the end of the announcement)

Well, it made me laugh when I first saw it! lol JACK
