A Stitch in Haste

Ever since I culled my BBC feeds I’ve been remiss in my Doctor Who blogging.

When we last left our hero, he had, um, quit. Bummer.

But now he’s back, in his tenth and possibly most eye-pleasing form, celebrated U.K. actor David Tennant, previously of “Casanova.”

Apparently there is much hype about his new garb, which is being dubbed “geek chic” –

Works for me, except the cheesy sneakers. Real men, and Time Lords, wear real shoes.

In other developments, K-9 and Sarah Jane Smith are returning for cameo appearances. I was never particularly fond of either. My favorite Doctor Who companion was Leela.

Anyway, the first revived season with Christopher Eccleston still isn’t on BBC-America or DVD yet, though I’m told it does run in Canada. Can any of my Great White Northern neighbors help a fan out?
