Much like buses.

Blah. Buses here tend to just not come at all (Pitry bitter and was almopst late for an exam because of a bus not showing up.)

Steven Moffat has won the 2008 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation - Short Form, for Blink.

Yay it's the hatrick!

And Stardust for best movie, excellent.

Must read "The Yiddish Policeman's Union".....*sigh* Been intending to for months.

[Reefgirl]

I think Reefgirl may have meant that it's Number 3 for Moffat, having won the same award the previous two years for The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances and The Girl in the Fireplace...

(If she didn't, it's just nice to point that out anyway )

Yes I did but it's nice to know it's his 3rd award this year too

Start me not on the subject of buses!

Last Monday, due to the bus being full (OF OLD PEOPLE!!!!) I had to get a taxi into work.
Nine quid that cost me.

That's 'cos the old folks have got bus passes that let them travel for free anywhere in the country

*pats* poor thing. If it makes you feel any better, it took me 50 mintues today by bus what I could have walked in 40... *hates bus company. And the one big construction site that is called Jerusalem*

I know that.

I'm all for old folk getting out and about, just so long as it's not when I'm trying to get to work.

*scoffs* Hah!

It takes me 20mins to walk from my work to the nearest bus stop, I'll have you know.

I hear ya, it's the same for me

May as well put this up here.... There are rumblings of a possible Doctor Who movie from new show runner Steven Moffat himself

I'm a little saddened that there'll never be an old or old-ish Doctor while SM is in charge. I do see the sense in what he said: if 30-something DT is tired out by the schedule and the sheer amount of running, most of the people on my wishlist would probably be considered unable to cope.

(And it wouldn't be Doctor Who without the running, so that wouldn't work as a way around the issue.)

*sigh* There goes my wish for a Bill Nighy Doctor.

While I'm not that broken hearted about SM's comment, are you sure that you trust him?

RTD blatenly lied to fans multiple times, and SM did deny that he was up for RTD's job for a bit.

The comment may just be to throw people off the scent. If he said, "I only want older Doctors" or "The Doctor must always be under 30" fandom would come after him.

His comment is rather vague.

Just my thoughts.

[huntress]

Bill Nighy would be SOO COOL but I have this perverse wish for the Jason Statham rumour to become fact. This is so weird but for some strange reason I am really, really warming up to that. Jason Statham is such an action star and the Doctor is like NO VIOLENCE PLZKTHNX. Just think of it. The Transporter as the Doctor....wearing some shades and an expensively made dark suit. Please tell me I am not weird for actually liking that idea.

[nx01a]

If the companion is an asian woman, the TARDIS drag races, and the sonic screwdriver blows stuff up, then Statham is the perfect choice. Oh, and, of course, if the Doctor isn't required to actually act.
Sorry but, after Transporter 1, none of his starring movies have been... good.

Obviously you haven't seen The Bank Job then.
