Hmm, a bit serious, but I liked the above stories a lot! I usually only enjoy the show at maximum silliness, but Blink was really good. :wtg:

Is that last one the two parter that will be on British television next (episodes 8 and 9?)?

Yep. With Alex Kingston, Colin Salmon, and Steve Pemberton. Now that Steve Pemberton has been on, that makes two of the League of Gentlemen that have acted in a Doctor Who story. I doubt Jeremy Dyson will act in one, but c'mon Reece Shearsmith!

this show has been on since '63. Aren't they running out of regenerations? Like it, but haven't had TV since October.

OMG!

I absolutely loved all of the Steven Moffat episodes (though Blink kept me awake for days). They couldn't have picked anyone better, IMO.

Yes - he has either 2 or 3 left depending on whether he has 12 "lives" or 12 "regenerations" ....

That's why I think it was a mistake to regenerate Eccleston after only one season. He can't afford to run through them that quickly now!
