So who regenerated?

Well, aside from endlessly witnessing the love of his life blowing half her brains out, as well as suffering the guilt of not stopping her…

Goes without saying. Just comparing the first episode of each series is enough.

God is anything you want it to be… for the right price…

Kind of weird that Cassidy is essentially a less annoying version of Joe Gilgun's Misfits character, Rudy.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.

Little? That's practically two years' worth in terms of British comedy shows!

"It's funny to me that people will pay 300% more for something that they think sounds marginally better."

In all seriousness, I can understand why some young people might be attracted to the novelty of owning a record collection. My twenty-something nephews and nieces are not really old enough to remember the joys of sharing their prized records with their friends.

If you can't hear coughing on your classic music tracks, you aren't listening to the genuine article…

Don't think so…

Why would I judge? Hounds of Love is still one of my favorite albums after all these years. Kate Bush at her finest. In any case, just looked in my box of cassettes for the first time in many years (at least 15) and found plenty of reasons to say, "Really?"

Until your dad found out you had ruined his record collection…

I tried to play a cassette on my 20 year old tape deck recently and neither player would work. Took it apart to see what the problem was — found out that all the rubber bands that drove the spindles had turned into goo.

Heh, one of the guys at a poker night I recently attended said he would host next time and that he would "spin some discs" for us. It took all my self-control not to roll my eyes…

I once described the outline of the plot of a completed (but as yet unpublished) novel of mine to a friend. He just looked at me and said: "Isn't that Men in Black?"

Could be another "sister", of course.

The next doctor will be much younger than Siddig or Thewlis, than much is certain.

Yeah, I think that makes a lot of sense given the handover to a new team, and I suspect John Simm is unlikely to want to keep coming back too.

He would have been five when Doctor Who started, and eight when the final William Hartnell episode aired, so he is certainly old enough. I was only five years old when "The War Games" (a Patrick Troughton story) aired at the start of 1969, and I can remember hiding behind the couch to watch it to this day!
