I'm sure you have all seen this already.. but

[Clive]

Thanks Sam.  Yes, the BBC has shown this on the news but it's far better on the computer!   

[Simon]

I'm not sure about this new doctor.  His hair is really annoying!

[Simon]

Oh, and I think they tried too hard to find someone who looks similar to Tennant.  It might have been nice to have an older, more eccentric character, something like Tom Baker used to be.

[Rik]

Don't talk to me about Doctors.

[Simon]

Still chasing?

[Rik]

Yup.

[Simon]

That's not good. 

[Rik]

I know.

What was wrong with William Hartnell?   

[Simon]

He's a bit dead.

I dunno about the older bit, but yeah I do feel they have tried hard to replace Tennant with Tennant.

[Clive]

He's a bit dead.

Your point..?   

[Simon]

Well, I guess he is a Time Lord. 

[Clive]

I rest my case!
