Guess I could always go get the DVD's. _________________________ -Michael #040103696 on a shelf Mk2a - 90 GB - Red - Illuminated buttons

Mind you I remember being shit scared when I was 5 or 6, what was his name, the bald fella? A friend of mine has made some cool "don't blink" t-shirts: http://www.squatorange.com/tshirt_logos/new_designs/don't_blink.html Ships worldwide.

music addict Registered: 25/06/2002 Posts: 456	Yeah, that was awesome. A truly fantastic episode! Actually, I want something a bit different on my T-shirt. I won't be specific because it would be a spoiler to those reading here who haven't seen it yet (I don't think it will air in the U.S. for another three weeks.) But it's the phrase that one of the characters mentioned that he had on a T-shirt. (Please use spoiler tags if you're going to spout off about it....)

There are a few t-shirts for sale with that phrase, but they all include art from the episode. I think it'd be more effective if it were just the text, then it would correctly fit in with the plot. Also, thought you folks (only those that have already seen "Blink") might enjoy this. (*Masive spoiler warning*: The link above leads to the original short story upon which "Blink" is based. Although it's not the same as the episode, it shares some major plot elements, and will spoil one of the biggest joys of watching the episode if you read or even skim it. Do not follow the link unless you have already seen "Blink".) _________________________ Tony Fabris

I wish he would have done more than one season. Ya kinda hate to see one regeneration go by so quickly, and he grew on you fast. Definitely one of my favorite Doctors. _________________________ -Michael #040103696 on a shelf Mk2a - 90 GB - Red - Illuminated buttons

There's a few of them we've missed, and he was another great Doctor. I don't follow the series but there's a collection from various seasons (both new and old) at a site I find quite handy for catching up with missed episodes. I don't know whether I should post a link here, I'll obfuscate it for the sake of web crawlers in any case.... redacted Edit: Sorry, but Tom has asked us not to reference such sites. Although a site that shows the shows via a Flash video player instead of a Bittorrent download is kinda neat. -wfaulk Edited by wfaulk (29/08/2007 19:21)
