Your dad is sad.

Still not a 'gay agenda'. Acknowledging that there are gay people in the world and having them be 'foregrounded' is just (finally) a reflection of our society. Not allowing minorities to be shown and represented is an agenda, them being fairly represented just is.

Tell me more of this 'internet' and 'youtube' of which you speak.

Lauren Socha would *literally* be a mental choice.

Sylvester McCoy used his own accent, but it's a much more subtle Scottish accent and, probably, had been softened further by a degree of RP.

Already had one, Sylvester McCoy. Although his Scottish accent was/is very soft. Also, there was that one episode where Tennant got to 'put on' a Scottish accent ("Are we in Scotland?!").

I'm still trying to comprehend your comment.

Tilda Swinton would be a great Doctor (apparently i'm already thinking about no. 13)

Dickish and kinda missing the point seeing as the Queen is not a fictional character who can regenerate and live multiple reincarnations.

Frankie Boyle as The Master? He and Capaldi could battle each other with invective.

i'm looking forward to it. a bit more world weary and paternal Doctor will be great(rather than being a romantic foil for a nubile sidekick).

they might do it if viewing figures are falling and the show is on the outs. short of that, they're not going to fuck with the formula too much.

Gina Bellman would be fun in a Jane from Coupling kinda way.

It's Oscar and Bafta winner Peter Capaldi! The third Scottish Doctor Who.

they were in a band together.

Of those four, *dancing* was the one that was religiously frowned upon? did you grow up in the town from Footloose?

agreed. if you're poor and live in a small community, there's not much to do as a teen except drink, dance, fight and screw. it's an easy culture to fall into and, if you fall pregnant at a young age, a difficult one to escape from.

D4 accent?

is there a tenuous link to Jenny's website that you could present?
