Remember the David Tennant as Hamlet figure I did a year ago? I have done another one.
Here he is in his white Navy uniform from the theatre play "Much Ado about Nothing", I saw this live in London.

No worries, immediatedly after I wrote this comment I got an LJ message from her where she apologized for not contacting me sooner. So I'm sure I would have heard about it even if you hadn't found it first ( ... )

Human Nature/Family of Blood is another episode where everyone agrees that it is one of the best ever, and which also gets shown to friends to convert them to fans ( ... )

I remember feeling very sorry for the Tenth Doctor at the end of "Girl in the Fireplace", so maybe that was already where my armour was cracking ;) I guess I was just sulking and not open minded. When I started to watch Doctor Who, I had no idea about the whole regeneration thing and that it is usual to have a new actor now and then. When Matt Smith came around, I was much more relaxed, knowing I might not like him right away, but that there will come the day, and it has. Although I was thinking I never would buy any action figures of him - well, if I look into my box, that didn't take long either LOL ( ... )

Well, I'm the opposite. I never learnt to swim, and after hearing everything that happened at that cruise ship in Italia, nobody will get me onto a ship! I mean really, in our modern times, such things are not necessary! What was the Captain thinking? *shakes head*

There was a time when I would have loved to be crashed on an island and live in the wilderness... although not with a smoke monster.

Yes, I absolutely can relate to the TSA thing. Lots of people I know are not doing holidays in the US anymore because of all the trouble it takes (did they actually follow through with that we have to pay 10 Dollar "entrance fee"? No idea)

As for the two seats, that is a serious concern, as the space sometimes IS tiny (depends between airlines and planes). I expect though that they might change that one day, as you are surely not the only one having that problem, and wouldn't that be discrimination? You just need someone starting a fight.

But if you ever sail into Germany, let me know!

I make a certain distinction between the leaders/politics of a country and the people that live in it. I should know, being from (former) Eastern Germany. I know many people from all over the world, all kind of countries and so far we get along pretty well ( ... )

Isn't the episode where Donna again finds the Doctor awesome? The way she mimes through the glass and then gets found out the the bad woman? I LOLed so much! And I think the Adipose are cute ;)

If pressed to choose, I also would choose Donna as my favourite companion. It was so great to see Catherine Tate and David Tennant together at stage - they have great chemistry together.

I like Utopia, the first of the three parter, but the other two not so much. Although some scenes are nice. Wish there was more Jack, but of course he is only a companion here. If you keep your eyes open in Torchwood, in one episode you will see "Vote Saxon" posters...

The books are quite good, but sometimes I think they lack a bit of - not sure what, but they are written for a younger audience after all.

I just thought - you also might want to look through my Doctor Who action figure stories again - I'm sure you will recognize some things from the episodes now! Look, I did "Journey's End" for example: http://s137.photobucket.com/albums/q227/DieAstra/PPP%20Doctor%20Who/Journeys%20End/

See? See? Although I don't think it's midnight already where you are ;)
That's Moffat for you. You already got to see his writing style with "The girl in the fireplace" which also was jumping around time a lot. Now imagine whole seasons 5 and 6 to be like that...

"Blink" has affected many fans so deeply, that they are wary of all kind of statues now. There are also lots who make a Weeping angel costume for conventions. Like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brightshadowsky/6293519559/

Awesome, isn't it?

I'm getting tempted to watch the episode again myself.
