I remember enjoying these episodes at the time, but I was 13 then. It'll be interesting how much worse they seem at 21, and to a friend who's about to start watching New Who from the start for the first time.

As did Mickey.

Especially since Ron Grainer asked "Did I write this?" after the work she did on it, and pushed for her to get a co-credit on it.

He spent a lot of time walking around the hospital shouting on Casualty in the UK, Fond memories.

I love Jamie as a male companion with the the Second Doctor, plus multiple companions in the TARDIS is always good.

Even if you're not obsessed you're basically expected as a man to have a team that you nominally support, so you get people who don't give a shit about the game who will when asked profess to support a certain team. It's a bit weird, maybe it's the same for American Football or Baseball in the states.

Very true, I kinda want to buy one and take it to a match to see all the weird looks I get.

The problem with Ted isn't that he's intellectual, it's that he can't seem to be intellectual without being a massive douche.

I hear you're a racist now father.

Shut up and take my money!

Yep, that's why I'm here too, and I'm very disappointed.

Nah, he's 5'11"

What about full-backal, are you ok with that?
