The point I'm making is that in that episode with the zip head aliens, I didnt really care if dr who stopped them because they were actually a bit less scary than some real MP's
Ah, you see in the old days before Reality TV...that would have been called Political Satire Bad wolf, bad wolf, grrrr

Whatever next - Austin Powers as the new assistant?

I can just see him telling off a dalek
"Hey baby that's not very groovy, exterminating people like that - just chill okay, chill.

Oooh, and I've got stalk-envy.

Yeah baby YEAH!"

It would seem that this is about virtual reality rather than the Doctor's entire set of adventures to date being a setup.
You could well be right Duncan - although I think we've done bloody well to work out what we have, given the sheer amount of speculation and lack of hard evidence.

"sheer amount of speculation and lack of hard evidence"

that never stopped the british justice system from reaching set conclusions.

Think nice thoughts:

Iliked the slitheen. I thought their immaturity was well scripted. Remember ther would have been youngsters in the slitheen family:- cousins and nephews etc.. Plus

Plus there is a bad wolf reference

And my imaginary German friend has pointed out that Slitheen is a misnomer...it's not the race but the family name...the race was something rather grander...don't be fooled by the human suit, they could be different on the inside

I'm wondering if some joker will put a bad wolf reference in tonight's Big Brother opening show.

Now that would be something.

Now that would be hysterical...especially bearing in mind they have a 13th house mate this year which "you would not want to be at any cost" according to C4 publicity

Thus creating a huge potential curveball for the end of the series, allowing RTD to have a finale that NO-ONE will speculate on due to the misinformation previously created.

That'd tie in nicely with the theme of the media controlling the truth and what people believe is true.

This is probably just crap but it'd be absolute genius if it were true.

Also, I wish people would stop calling the next series "series 2". There's been many years of series' of DW and the next one certaintly isn't the second!
Now if anything would take me by surprise and in RTD's words "blow me away", then the idea you suggest would be it.
