F***ing Liberty…that is what Tate is taking with Dr Who
I watched the last Dr Who episode. Is it me or was Catherine Tate bloody awful? She didnt act she just did her characters in different places. They seem to be good at picking doctors, but rubbish at picking female side-kicks. Bring back Teela!
The Ood seem to me to be direct rip-offs of D&Ds Mindflayers (check out the Monster Manual).
NB: I admit that I thought Billy Piper was awful as a sidekick and assumed it was she was a rubbish actress. The various dramas I have seen her in since have convinced me I was wrong about her acting skills. She is actually rather good.
NB: For the benefit of my non-UK readers. Catherine Tate is a “comediene” who has an ole’ lady character who uses that phrase often.
3 commentsA question for my gun fans…re: Obama
Obama was taking the piss out of Hilary about her duck hunting tales. He claimed she would head out “with a six shooter” to hunt ducks. Would anyone actually hunts ducks with a six shooter? Surely its more a shotgun type of hunting. I guess you might be able to hit a duck with a scoped revolver, but it would be bloody hard. And if you hit the thing wouldn’t a normal slug pulverise the duck?
Is this another example of how out of touch Obama is with middle America?
BTW: Is he a marxist?

He describes himself as “a WASP boy from Smallville, Ontario,” who from a young age was moved by the sacrifice his relatives and others around the world made to end Nazism [ . . . ]
They must be so proud.
