Dr.Who Day

[karadinart]

BBC America has a Dr. Who marathon. It was funny as one of the first episodes this morning was Victory of the Daleks (featuring the Skittles coloured Daleks) and my son happens to have a Remote Controlled Red Dalek Drone he received for his birthday. We call him Ray.

And my son said, "Look it's Ray! He's on television!"

So I spent a good half hour chasing the cats around with the Dalek, and then fixing the arial on the controller when my son snapped the top off - still works, ne.

I was telling my daughter about my favorite doctor (Tom Baker no.4) and I wish there was a way to view those old episodes. I suppose they are on DVD somewhere? Maybe the library has them.

Anywhoo, getting my Sherlock/Hobbit drawing done and then finishing chapter two so both post later.

NEW EPISODE DR.WHO TONIGHT! Whee!

I believe many of them are on DVD. I haven't gotten around to watching them yet, but I have many episodes saved in Netflix to watch.

If the library doesn't have them, I do have a bunch of codes for a free month of Netflix instant streaming. You are more than welcome to have one.

A lot of libraries have them, especially the Fourth Doctor ones (not sure why that is, but I assume it's an issue of when they were released on DVD and when the libraries had money). There are also numerous places to *ahem* acquire them and/or view them, if you're so interested.

yeah I could 'view' them, but as with the Brett Granada Holmes, its more fun to share watching on tv than watching the computer screen!

Yep, we were pleased to see the big "made by BBC AMERICA and BBC Cymru" We were hoping that the lapse would of been bridged between waiting and seeing the show overseas.

There is some Tom Baker on Netflix instant. I've been showing my daughter the old ones, too. She's still a Matt Smith fangirl, though *L* We're surprising her in a couple weeks with a Dr. Who Birthday party, she thinks we're just having a party out in the garage. We're going to build a Tardis out of fridge boxes and turn it into a photo booth and I'm ordering her the life sized stand up Matt Smith for in it so everyone looks like they got their picture taken with him. *L*

A friend that does amazing cakes is doing a Tardis one, too.

I made a Dalek cake for my son's birthday, it's on my DA account. You should enter the pics in the Show Us Your Tardis contest, you could win 47 years of Dr.Who DVDs
