The Snowmen:

The Greater Intelligence.... was a villain back in the 70s! At the time, it took over London's Underground, believing it to be of "strategic importance". Wonder where it got THAT idea from... btw, it's name is Yog-Sothoth, yeah, THAT ELDER GOD!

Also: the Doctor as Sherlock Holmes... (with proper BBC music)


Finally: YOU BASTARDS! They Killed Kenny!!!!errrr.... ASTRID!

Tangentally related to DW, but I watched a good portion of the K-9 marathon on Syfy Christmas day. I never knew they made a whole series starring The Doctor's faithful robotic companion.

I watched too. It isn't an official BBC production, but was spearheaded by the co-creator of K-9.

I watched a couple of episodes from the first series with Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper. It's hard to believe how scary they made the words, "Are you my mummy?" Those episodes scared the crap out of me the first time I saw them.
Yes, it is as bad as you think, and they are out to get you
