Prediction for 2008

Too early for this… in respect of a show about time travel… early… nah!

If Season Four proves to be Russell T’s last, I think he’ll HAVE to give in to his final fan boy yearning and have a multiple Doctor story! Another ‘Three Doctors‘ would work for me – with the 8th and 9th Doctors. I’m sure they could lure Chris back for one story; and I’d love to see Paul get another chance at the role on TV (a role he has handled admirably in audio for the last four years or so).

Thought I’d get this prediction in really early before The Sun can spoil it…

Captain Woof

“There’s nothing wrong with being slobbered on…” – or so says John Barrowman, who appeared this morning on Animal Rescue Live, interviewed by Selina Scott.

I have to admit, I didn’t even know Selina was still working! However, here she was talking to Captain Jack with his dogs – Tiger (ni Teegan) and Lewis. Apparently, John and his civil partner wanted to select a dog as a wedding gift – and went looking at the rescue centre to which John serves as patron. Teegan had arrived at the centre recently, and John couldn’t resist the Doctor Who connection… given that Teegan was companion to the fourth/fifth Doctor.

Good to see John and his dogs… apparently they travel a lot with him. Great to see a Who-niverse connection with pet rescue!

Hardwire

Stumbled across a great arrangement of the theme from the TV Movie, remixed by a guy called Hardwire. Highly recommended – and you can download the mp3 file from several places online – including this one at whomix.
