    New Dr. Who - Tardiswear?

    In off - off - off topic news, the new incarnation of Dr Who has been seen in costume for perhaps the first time and is causing quite a stir. Why? He's been see sporting a tweed jacket, rolled up pant cuffs, work boots and - wait for it - a bow tie!

    Now if we could just get him in a kit... oh well... stand a little taller all you bow tie daddies - looks like you have company!

    I'm going to miss David Tennant. He was really brilliant in that role. Then again, I said the same thing when I found out Chris Eccelston was leaving, and David far exceeded any expectations I had for him.

    Thumbs up

    Wow they seem so young! Hopefully this guy will stick around for a while. If we stay on canon, the Doctor only has one regeneration left!

    His new assistant is mighty cute though!

    Yes, one would think that the producers would take this limitation on regenerations in account when casting. But perhaps they are just struggling to get to that point! After all, the series is nearly fifty years old!!

    And I remember the first episode.....

    The original music still gives me goosebumps.

    One of the Doctors assistants wore a kilt.

    We certainly are.

    The first episode was 'an unearthly child', by the way, and it was Jamie - though I suspect the kilt was anachronistic.

    I hate to play my uber-geek card, but he's got two more lives after the new guy... 12 regenerations makes 13 lives (each actor 'regenerates' into the next, meaning the 13th actor is the one that finishes things). Unless of course they find a good excuse and keep on keeping on....

    Perhaps they are hoping that by the time they run out of regenerations those of us who have been counting will not be around to point that out.

    I am glad that the Dr Whos have been getting better in the last few years - some of them in the middle decades were rather lacking, sadly.
