Saw a bit of Kinda last night...

... still love it.

What struck me is how "Doctorish" Davo is in this one. His voice is notably higher than later stories, but he's playing more of an archetype Doctor than usual.

Also, while Waterhouse was bearable, it's notable that he's such a useless c*** he can't even eat convincingly.

This along with Fenric and Leisure Hive is my "blindspot" WHO. However many times I watch it, however many times I am told it is brilliant - I just think it is shoddy and incomprehensible.

Sorry. :floella

Have you seen the "how racist are you?" thread in the last couple of days, Broadie?

Nuthin, really. It was just if I'd gone to the trouble to give you some shit I wanted to make sure you'd seen it.

It takes a lot of energy chatting smack, you know.

Best. Story. Ever. for me. I love it.
Brilliant performances all round and Bailey's script is wonderful.
And your right Davo is very Doctor-ish in this one.
