The Biggest SQUEE of them all!

My childhood keeps being resurrected by the revived Doctor Who…and it keeps making me SQUEE!

The Fifth Doctor – as portrayed by my childhood idol, the great Peter Davison – returns to meet David Tennant’s brilliant 10th Doctor in a special mini-episode for the annual BBC Children In Need Telethon.

To say I’m thrilled would be a VAST understatement.

Yes, Davison does look his age in the picture below…and yet, wearing THAT outfit once again, and standing next to the rock star that is Tennant, a substantial chill ran up and down my spine. Age isn’t a barrier. It’s the BLOODY 5th DOCTOR! WITH THE 10th DOCTOR!

The mini-episode, titled Time Crash, is also being written by new series writer extraordinaire (and 5th Doctor fan) Steven Moffat…which guarantees there will be a high level of wit, comedy, drama & poignancy.

In short, I fully expect to be impressed and delighted, come mid-November. I will try NOT to jump up & down and scream like a little girl, but I can’t guarantee that it won’t happen amidst the rush of nostalgia, giddiness and sheer joy. Enjoy the promo picture for now…and await for my review of the episode when it airs. beam
