That's a good point, besides, I prefer the "What do you get when you multiply three by nine?" that was generated with the Scrabble™ pieces by Ford and Arthur on pre-historic Earth.

The one I linked to was on last Friday evening, it's the first in the 3rd season, I believe. nekokami was answering my question about which episode they blew up Patricia's old school in.

I rather liked Christopher Eccelston, myself (though I'll gladly refrain from typing his name again!), he really did an excellent job with the role, in my opnion.
I didn't find the change to Davin Tennant jarring (much more typing-friendly name, that one), but then I
did watch the re-runs of the old series on
PBS back in the days when the BBC had a seven year embargo on exporting their programming, so I had already adjusted to the idea that The Doctor wears many faces. I find the changing of The Companions bothers me more, because they're distinct individual characters, and no part of them carries over to the next, whereas there is a degree of continuity with The Doctor. However, I think that dichotomy of the Companions changing and The Doctor remaining (sorta) the same, and what that does to the characters is one of the more interesting aspects of the show. So there you go.

That's a very
nasty rumor, and I'll thank you not to go spreading it!
