It's really well done and yes, quite emotional.

I did like the Dalek Operator's comment about hating all humanity.

It's great to see the BBC acknowledge that there was Doctor before 2005.

I've always been disappointed that whenever they show those specials on BBCA (Monsters, Companions, etc) that they never show anything from the original run.

In some cases I bet it has to do with licensing rights. Like I watched one on "the women of Doctor Who" that I think was produced by BBC America (it had mostly US celebs talking about it), and maybe the American division doesn't have licensing rights to the pre-Eccleston runs.

The first few BBCA specials only had the rights to the Matt Smith episodes, of which there had been about 12 or so.

Barrowman has been delightful on Attack of the Show this week. He has no filter.

Anyone got any recommendations for good Doctor Who blogs?

Not news blogs, more general stuff.

I've started reading the posts on Adventures With The Wife In Space (Long-term fan watches the series from the beginning with his non-fan wife), and Tardis Eruditorium (mini-essays on every story from the beginning) and would like something in that vein.

Not a blog, but The AV Club have been running reviews of the classic series every two weeks: http://www.avclub.co...ho-classic,186/

Most recent one is Ghostlight, and this is the upcoming schedule:

Sept. 16: “The Seeds Of Doom”

Ha, thanks for making me search for this. I've only read the first story coverage so far, but it's great.

I especially like the discussion of the casual brutality that was shown at 5.15pm in 1963. It wouldn't be allowed these days Posted Image

I'll second the AV Club reviews. They're consistently good reads, and the comments can actually be interesting sometimes.

I've been reading random stories - there's even a couple of (edited) commentary tracks.

Lorcan, she liked The Green Death.
