Reading some stuff about ASH recently, and he has recently did some audio recordings for the BBC protraying the independent Gallifreyan Time Lord. Got to me thinking it might be nice to have a Dr. Who thread over here.
My initial post, did you know that when Braveheart distributing first started bringing the show to the States in the late 70s, at the Time John Pertwee was the Doctor, just prior to Tom Baker's coming on board, they marketed it as a kid's show? Which meant it got picked up by an assortment of PBS outlets and small independent TV stations here in the States. And was shown at really strange times, saturday a.m. saturday early afternoon, weekday early afternoon. And this distributor added some really horrid voice-over narration by Howard DaSilva, Mr. DaSilva is an excellent actor but the narration was really hideous.
Are reruns being shown anywhere, to anyones knowledge? Just wondering.

to Plan C. Cause, again I am far from the expert, I always liked Ace, she showed a spunkiness and a irreverance to the Doctor (like she always called him "Professor"), and she was always blowing stuff up, gotta love a woman who knows her detonation techniques. Of course my Dr. Who views are a little contrarian, cause I liked Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor.
