Off Topic / London 2012 Olympic logo

Well that's a bit crap, oh and the video version sort of flickers between colours in an eye-straining, fit-starting way.

According to Popbitch (and they admit it could all be rubbish...

    * John Simm as Mr Saxon, the PM, gets taken
    over by The Master.
    * The Master did this by hiding from the
    time war in the Tardis and waiting for the
    right body to come along (like in Hellraiser 3)
    * The Master becomes a Timelord again by
    splicing The Doctor's DNA and temporarily
    taking over Dr Who's body.
    * cliff-hangers at end are whether The Doctor
    rids himself of The Master, and whether the
    big explosion you see is Galifrey or Earth.

Off Topic / Happy Brithday Thomas Pynchon

70 years today... wherever he is.

Has anyone read much of him? I read the supposedly easy (for him) Crying of Lot 49 a few years ago which was pretty mind-blowing. I keep meaning to attempt Gravity's Rainbow but it sounds pretty hard work.

The obvious comics connection is he's quoted in V for Vendetta.

Film & TV / Dr Who - The Runaway Bride
22 December, 2006, 11:01:14 AM
Here's a brief interview with RTD just to get your blood boiling before the actual broadcast...

Contains minor spoilers (nothing much more that the trailers though). And sort of a spoiler about Torchwood (though nothing I wasn't expecting)

And Paul Scott may have a heart attack if he reads it.
