My sister bought me a couple of tickets to see this show in April. It looks great - has anyone seen it or know anything about it?

A radio version was broadcast on BBC7 a while back. Here's the write-up,

Quote:
“This is a two-part BBC 7 adaptation of Toby Hadoke's sensational stand-up show about Doctor Who, fandom and one man's lifelong obsession.

Actor and comedian Toby Hadoke's hilarious and touching one-man show was a huge hit at the Edinburgh Fringe, and his nationwide tour was just as successful. This two-part adaptation, based on the stage show and starring Toby Hadoke, Louise Jameson and with a cameo by Colin Baker, is a celebration of Doctor Who for fans and novices alike.

Toby Hadoke was born to love Doctor Who. To Toby - a shy, weedy kid whose dad had left home - the Doctor was a hero, and the show a lifeline he clung to throughout his childhood. He kept the faith when other boys mocked him, girlfriends dumped him and (worst of all) Doctor Who was cancelled.

After living in the closet for 16 years, finally the time has arrived to come out and admit it: yes, he is a Doctor Who fan and proud of it. Climb aboard award-winning comedian Toby Hadoke's TARDIS on a trip through time, charting the rise, fall and rise again of a television legend.”

I have the CD of this and it's really very good, I found myself nodding along agreeing to quite a lot of it, but it is dependant on age I'v found... as in, when he's talking about 70's and 80's TV and Classic Dr Who, if you were there and remember it, then you understand what he's on about.... if you weren't - then you don't - and consequently chunks of it don't make sense. (I hope that explanation makes sense lol)
