I thought once upon a time, we used to watch these shows for
entertainment value, now all it seems is people scan every frame
looking for something wrong. I'm just so glad my favourite series is
back on tele.
Same here but because I have studied some cultural studies and some
literature as part of my degree, I am quite interested in analysing
the stories as well. I just think that these two activities (watching
for fun and analysing) are not mutually inclusive. The problem seems
to be that some people expect to have minute detail of the plot and
its place in the continuity of Dr Who to be completelu explicitly
speeled out at all times - a bit like a production of a Shakespearean
play with the cast reading out the long and short notes from the study
guides intermixed with the play. Then there are people who want to
prove that every other word is part of some plot by RTD and the rest
of the "gay community that really controls the BBC/UK/World (delete as
applicable depending how many days worth of mediactions you've
missed)" to take over the world by indoctrinating all our children
into beliving heterosexulaity is wrong ;)

Somones already mentioned something very similar but I can't find
the thread
to elaborate on it so I'll start a new one instead.
If Rose was not born in alt.earth then how could the Doctor have
met her and
taken her to 1879 to meet Queen Victoria so that she could create
alt.torchwood ?
If the alt.doctor met alt.queen-victoria by himself then it would
not have
been in the form of TenDoc since there would have been no Bad Wolf
Rose to
save and force EcclesDoc to regenerate, and no reason to go to see
Ian Dury
in concert, and the events would not have been set in motion for
Canary Warf
Tower to be built nor would alt.london look anything like it does
today and
alt.Pete and alt.Jackie would never even have been born.
The whole parallel universe scenario is absolute bollocks and the
only way
to resolve this mega continuity error is to do a Bobby coming out
to the
shower and write out the entire RTD era completely.
