And Lumic, actually. When he died in that film, I did sort of expect him to come back... "FROM THE GRAVE"!
Actually, on a more serious note, I wondered a few years back about JK's interest in Doctor Who. For reasons I can't even remember now, I thought that there was definite similarities between The Chamber of Secrets and 'Snakedance'. Haha, I was probably completely wrong. It's something about the snakes... |
Well, Rowling was aksed to contribute a script to Who (for the Eccelston season), said she was flattered but too busy. |

Yeah, I definitely remember hearing that. Haha, and maybe when that day comes that squeeing fans* have been praying for and Daniel Radcliffe is cast as the Doctor, that may just interest JK even more.
Well... perhaps not.
Mind you, when watching GoF, I do remember thinking Ron's outfit for the Yule Ball was very Doctor-ish, in the sense that it was bizarre and individual. I can't believe the others looked down on him; they were all wearing boring suits (like the 10th Doctor occasionally does, ironically!)! Ron, nervous though he was, was clearly the most brilliantly dressed individual there. I applaud him.
*I say that with affection  |

| On Rove the other night, Rove was talking about how with shows like So You Think You Can Dance all the range, his dance moves aren't that cool anymore. He then proceeded to do some robot moves, whilst exclaiming: "Uncoordinate! Uncoordinate!" |

Recently saw on the Catweazle DVD the documentary Brothers In Magic in which Geoffrey Bayldon mentioned Doctor Who.
Before William Hartnell, Bayldon became the first person to ask to play the Doctor but turned it down. In Brothers In Magic he said that he would not have been Catweazle if he had accepted the offer of playing the Doctor.
Bayldon eventually appeared in Doctor Who in Creature from the Pit and finally played the Doctor as an alternative version of the First Doctor in the Doctor Who Unbound audios from Big Finish. |

| There was a Doctor Who reference in the Robin Hood season 1 DVD release. Executive Producer Foz Allan in the special feature Designing the Hood said that for CGI to work on Robin Hood the audience must not notice it as it is not science fiction, it's not Doctor Who. |

I don't suppose anyone saw It's Academic today (Friday 9/5)? Because I switched over to it, and I only heard the last part of a question. Option A had already been said, but then..
"Or B - the Master".
The answer was B. But I don't know what the question was! |

A couple of non-references here, but anyway...
At school in Extension History we're learning about JFK, and there are many biographies on the subject. Whilst copying the names of the authors down my eyes widened for a moment, only to discover that the man's name wasn't what I thought it was.
His name was Robert Dallek.
Tonight I asked my dad if he wanted to watch the movie I taped for him the other night. He said "No, I'm going to watch Enemy Within."
He meant The State Within. |
