[edit]

OK, so the Tardis launched bock in the days when the toughest weapon a policeman carried was his tongue ...

And the "Star Wars" crew positively push our her back into the dinosaur age.

But it doesn't matter.

You see "Dr Who" (and I quote the man himself) is timeless.

He goes through life — several lives — looking like an out-of-work vaudeville turn, saving galaxies at a stroke, dropping beautiful lines like "I told Alexander Graham Bell, the were the dodgy part", when a phone refused to work, and even has found time to be a darts star.

His latest enemies are the Kraals, or some such things.

But it doesn't matter.

We know the doctor sill see them off.

At the moment they have taken over the Earth (or a part that looks suspiciously like the BBC corridors).

And the fiends have cloned Sarah.

Stygrew, the Kraal trader, looks like a lump of putty. He probably is a huge lump of putty. It is not a lavish production.

But it doesn't, matter.

"They're copying people" said Sarah's copy ...

That could only be a BBC line. They have made five copies of the good doc.

But It doesn't matter.

Isn't he worth saving in this age of cash-equals-success?

Yes, the doctor sure is a great tonic.
