Doctor WHOOOOO????

This may be a cause of embarassment for myself, but hey, I'll admit it. During my big tidy-up over the holidays, I came across around 50 or so issues of Doctor Who magazine which I had neatly filed into a box file. I started liking Doctor Who in 1996, when the Paul McGann movie came out, as I watched it, and decided that it was wonderful and I really really wanted to see more Doctor Who. And so it went on from there: I began reading DWM, got many videos, wind-up Dalek, Dalek polly-pocket etc. And I forgot to mention the really embarassing part, which was my 15-year old self's big crush on Paul McGann. I thought he was amazing and incredibly cute! And it was largely thanks to that that I joined the ranks of 'trainspotter' (I do not mean any sort of negative connotation here). Well, anyway, times have changed, and I realised that perhaps I really didn't need all these magazines cluttering up my very limited space available. But just before I bagged them up for E-bay prospectives, I had a glance through them, and remembered THOSE letters. Yes dear reader, I only went and sent not one, but TWO very embarassing letters to DWM, declaring my love for said actor, and saying how I cried at bits in the movie. And at the respective times of publication, I was so pleased that my letters had been published and showed everyone! They even published a picture of Paul McGann in a heart-shape next to my letter saying something like "Kerenza loves Paul" or something embarassing like that! Oh my, after reading them, I absolutely cringed and ran around the house screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". How could I do such an embarassing thing?!

2006, and I love Doctor Who still, though thankfully I do not have the big crush on the man himself (though David Tennant is rather foxy!) and yes, some of the storylines have made me blub again (after all, who could fail to be distressed during Badwolf, Parting of the Ways and Army of Ghosts & Doomsday). However, I must say, that I am very pleased that Captain Jack is to come back in Torchwood . Because he is rather cute. It has been very nice to see him on "How do you solve a problem like Maria". (Still cannot believe the contestants got to kiss him!!!!). I look forward to Series three lots!!! It's also very nice that kids of this generation are seeing and loving Doctor Who. It is highly amusing that my 15-year old sister is exhibiting the same signs as I was, 10 years on about Doctor Who. I wonder, if in 10 years, she will find old copies of DWM and cringe about letters she might send to it?
