He actually made an on screen appearance in SJA: Enemy of the Bane He was definitely name checked in the main series... the Tenth Doctor mentions in the Poison Sky that he could use the Brigadier... and is told that Sir Alastair is stranded in Peru. I loved his last hurrah in the original...

Sad day indeed. "Nicholas Courtney ","Brigadier" and "#RIPTheBrig" have all been regularly trending worldwide on Twitter since the news broke late last night.... and it's not as if there isn't strong competition in the news topics at the moment. Just goes to show how much he was appreciated.

I lost interest after the low point of 3. That was just awful. They killed characters randomly and not for any reason of furthering the plot. The whole Professor X thing annoyed me. Okay so he's a telepath and can project his astral self all over the shop... but surely that ability is anchored...

I agree with that analysis of course... but it always made me wonder why in any of the wars, the younger races didn't use that as a means of taking out their enemies. Sure it would be outlawed because destroying an entire star system is by definition a weapon of mass destruction... but...

Re: Green Latern 2010 Pssst.... it's 2011!:vulcan::eek:;):p

I'm waiting for the other Green related film to come out.

Well it's an attempt... it is someone trying to replicate Time Lord technology... not necessarily a Time Lord. I think Moffat would be smart enough to leave the Master out of things for a bit... especially as he seems to be steering us towards the Valeyard.

You are right... but if I recall correctly from the dialogue, The Doctor identified it as an attempt to grow a Tardis. On the Doctor Who wiki page for the Lodger, the spaceship is referred to as a faux-Tardis and furthermore:

So you don't think she does engage with the music on a deeper level? Have to disagree. Apart from the fact she started out as a music teacher and has a strong musical background that led to her becoming one of our finest mezzo-sopranos (and the new UK "forces' sweetheart"), she doesn't just look...

All my Christmases came at once... Doctor Who AND Katherine Jenkins (it's a shame she's dating a 2 storey tall rugby star with bulging muscles... I've got no chance of pushing him out of the picture... unless I have a slingshot and 5 pebbles). I think what's great about her is that when she...

Yeah, kinda similar to how I felt about the character. The more screentime he occupied, the more narcissistic he seemed.

I still miss the chemistry between Douglas Henshall and Lucy Brown :-( *sniff*

A lot of the most irritating behavioural aspects exhibited by Byron come after his intimate encounter with Lyta. I've always strongly maintained that what she said would happen... exactly happened and that the experience telepathically burned him. Up until that point Byron had been seeking...

I enjoyed it... personally not as much as Wright's previous efforts (Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz (the latter being my personal favourite but then I am a small town Brit)). I follow the Mark Kermode/Simon Mayo's twitter updates and I get the impression that Kermode is going to rip into it...

If it's using a monotheistic slant... you might want to try looking up the Coptic churches liturgy.

I was entertained and enjoyed it... but I have to admit I saw the end coming a mile off. The first scene that Michael Caine appeared in... and the train ploughing through the city (especially when we see the relevance of the latter to Leo's character), were extremely big suggestions that Leo's...

BBC has come out and quashed the stupid RTD/Depp American Who idea. Praise the Lord. *Does fist pump*

Somebody has charted the wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff in the finale.

Re: Matt Smith Dr Who *Spoilers* I also felt the finale was awesometastic.... Moffatt did leave a few strands but unlike RTD they are obviously intentional (hence the throw away line about the catalyst for the TARDIS explosion still being out there). Speaking of RTD there's a horrible...

Re: Matt Smith Dr Who *Spoilers* I loved the way it mirrored the ending of Victory of the Daleks... you are lulled subconsciously into a false sense that it's going to be okay and then *pop* The new power ranger daleks were designed with her height in mind (similar to how the previous new...
