Well, here’s a bit of good news :

Doctor Who 50th anniversary episode set to feature all eleven Time Lords

I have never been able to get a foothold on Dr Who, much to my dismay. My dad (not particularly a sci-fi aficionado, apart from the original Twilight Zone) used to watch this version:

somewhat faithfully. It came on Channel 13 (KERA-TV, incidentally the first American TV station to broadcast Monty Python) late at night. The Dr Who theme music used to truly scare me when I was a wee lad. It sounded so futuristic, alien, and sinister.

I recently tried to watch some more recent incarnations on Netflix, and it seemed to be a lot more comedy-oriented than I expected.

Someone should put together a beginner’s guide to Dr. Who.

or not.
