There should be a Doctor Strange picture:

Here's a new David Tennant interview.

Though I think it was done at Comic Con. It's charming, in which you learn that Tennant is collecting the Classic Doctor action figures (of course he is!) and which bands he likes now and getting excited about spoilers for Eleven on the internets. And he mentions he would like to play Doctor Strange which... FUCK YES.

I hope someone at Marvel reads that and is like, 'this is a good idea', because I love Doctor Strange and Tennant would actually be very good casting.

I post this as way of also posting this: Tennant joins Simon Pegg in 'Burke and Hare'.

Simon Pegg. David Tennant. Directed by John Landis in a film about Victorian graverobbers. That's going to be ENORMOUS fun. I can't wait.

Yes, she did and so did the actress inside the cheetah suit. In the documentary no less! The question that season left me wondering, but I haven't seen anyone give a definitive answer to: is the lesbian not-really-SUBtext in that season because the script editor couldn't out her as a lesbian on a children's program of the 80s, or was it some sort of inner circle titillation?

I ask because I suspect any audience of 2010 watching a new staging of Ghost Light would just assume Ace was a lesbian and that was the point, but neither the real wikipedia or the TARDIS wiki seem to have one line about it.

I quite liked that the Doctor just ran into a grocery and bought cat food, the extent of his cunning plan to capture one of the cats. It made me laugh, anyway.

The Doctor, in his current incarnation, is extremely handsome, so don't snog anyone else - stick with him.

Good advice. *g*

I must remember to ask [livejournal.com profile] kathyh whether she could ask her pal Mark, aka Ghost Light's writer. They used to work together at the BBC. And he should know!

Good call, thanks in advance. :)

...and wouldn't you know it, the guy is in Namibia on vacation right now. And thus the gathering of knowledge is delayed...
