Definitely from Logopolis. The tissue... compression... thingummy. HGFB, help!

Evil Tatooed females are certainly an interesting subset of the genre, though... And I believe you're thinking of Evil Willow, about which there is nothing wrong whatsoever...

I've heard that Ricky will die in tonights ep, and Mickey decides to stay behind in place of him - as he'll have Ricky's gran to look after too...

Or at least that's what they're saying on Outpost Gallifrey

From Outpost Gallifrey

Final ratings are now available for The Girl in the Fireplace, the fourth episode of this new season (broadcast on 6 May). According to the BARB, with timeshifted viewings taken into account, the episode was watched by an average of 7.9 million viewers, making the program the thirteenth most-watched of the week on the list of top fifty programs, and sixth on the list of actual titles (as programs such as "Coronation Street" and "Eastenders" air several episodes). This is an upwards adjustment of approximately half a million additional viewers. Also noted: the BARB rankings for episode 4 of Doctor Who Confidential which the BARB now reports as being viewed by 728,000 viewers, a slight rise of approximately 4,000 viewers.

Oh yeah baby

The official BBC Doctor Who website has confirmed the UK DVD release of The Hand of Fear starring Tom Baker as the Doctor and Elisabeth Sladen - in her last episode as a regular on Doctor Who - as Sarah Jane Smith. The DVD is currently due out on 31 July 2006. The release will feature commentary by Baker, Sladen, Judith Paris (Eldrad), Bob Baker (writer) and Philip Hinchcliffe (producer); "Changing Times," a 50-minute documentary charting the special relationship between the Doctor and his companion Sarah Jane Smith; "Swap Shop," a very rare clip of Tom Baker and Elisabeth Sladen's appearance on the first ever edition of Noel Edmonds' Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, shown in October 1976; plus PDFs of the 1977 Doctor Who Annual and the Radio Times listings for The Hand of Fear, a photo gallery, continuity announcements, information text subtitles and easter egg.

Nice one re the Hand of Fear DVD. Not one of the best stories (quite watchable though) but made memorable due to the departure of Sarah.

Certainly worth buying if only for the extras. Re the commentary track - I wonder if Tom can remember making this one? Nahhh, I doubt it.

Do you mean the Cidermen? If so, yup.

I just hope it's a lot better than last weeks' utter shambles ..........

I hope there's some kind of scheduling mash-up and it ends with The Doctor being cornered in a bunker by Lordi.

I'm just thinking how brilliant it would be to have actual baddies called "The Cidermen" whereby people are abducted from the streets in their thousands and turned into clones of the Wurzels.
