Have you ever wondered where the Dr Who team get their ideas from ?

Well it was revealed to me in a vision.
As the camera zoomed down on the dancers in the New York theatre in Daleks
do Manhattan 1, i was struck by a feeling of deja-vu that i hadn't had
since
the flying red monks of 'Tooth n' Claw'.Casting my mind back a full minute
and a half i realised that RTD had been reusing scenes from BBC idents !
It would certainly go some way to justifying the extortionate expense of
said idents, and it's the only way you could explain more red clothing on
Who than in the Trooping of the Colour.

Here are my predictions for future recycling of ident ideas.

1. The Doctor is assailed by wailing alien music ( possibly bollywood or
tango related )
and is speedily set upon by skateboarding punks.

2. Davros returns, but now he's black and armed with a basketball.

3. K9 Mark 9 will appear disguised as the number 2, it's fury carapace
will
lull aliens into a false sense of security, but it will be dropped for
being
too much like a tribble.

4. The Doctor falls over the Victoria Falls.Just when he thinks he's had
the
worst of it he is surrounded by hippos

5. Watch this ident.

Is that the face of an old enemy that appears behind these android dancers
?
Yes it's Revenge of the Giant Robot - but now he's got a name for F***s
sake.


I couldn't see the Giant Robot's face :(
