That Doctor Who thing

[altariel]

I gather a new Doctor has been cast while I've been on Cardassia. Looks fine to me: I liked him a lot in The Ruby in the Smoke, and he's a local boy, so BBC East must be WETTING themselves that they'll have something to report for the next couple of years. Several people have commented about the talky-hand thing, so I'll note instead the shadowy-eye thing, where he dips his head so that the whole area around his eyes goes completely black. Most mysterious, jolly good, carry on with that.
