I lasted longer than on previous occasions this time, making it well into the the 14th minute before reaching for the remote. What a pile of utter shite it truly is. Every conceivable thing is wrong with it, lighting, camera work, story, costumes, special effects, acting, extras, direction. It's such cheap amateurish embarrassingly bad television. I've seen more imaginative better produced attempts at entertainment produced by high school drop outs at the local polytechnic. I wholeheartedly support you in your endeavor to expose new Who and Davies for the turds that they are. Well written, humorous, entertaining, accurate, no job at the BBC for you then, sadly. Well done. Hi Jon, just discovered your site moments ago after attempting for the third time in my life to give new Who a fair chance.

Although I guess there is quite a queue forming. On the doppelganger front - can anyone claim to have seen Jon (hurt or not) together in the same room with RTD? No. Exactly.

The idea of the Cybershades was undoubtedly RTD's and he deserves to be hoofed squarely in the plums for it.

Another childhood dream dashed. Then you lack the imagination required to work in the BBC visual effects department. Another childhood dream dashed.

Come on, be fair.

I am however, hurt.

They are clearly inspired (quite literally) by the Gorilla on the Basketball-court perception experiment. They are so audaciously trite that you simply filter them straight back out. What shit costumes? Now <strong>that</strong> is the true genius of the RTD's layered psychology at work. I have never wondered what you get when you combine a fridge magnet with a throw rug. But now I know anyway. Thanks RTD you great big rancid cock flange. At one point I can distinctly remember catching sight of a leg under the shaggy outer, sporting black socks and trainers. Hand on heart our local WI could have done a better job. BTW, RTD is nearly an anagram of retard. The ‘Cybershades’ are just monumental.

Doesn't he look sad? Like a saggy old cloth cat, baggy and a bit loose at the seems, in a spray painted voice-changer mask from the Woolworths sale. Still, at least we know what Bagpuss is up to these days. This may be spoiling your next post, but look at the Cybershade on the left in the picture.

How thoughtful he should insist we maintain the middle T, which aided my googling no end; by distiguishing him from his legion famous namesakes. Anyway, what struck me most was a rather uncanny resemblance to you, Jon. Is there something you're not telling us?
