Skinny idiot! Decorative vegetable! The back of our head! Brainy specs! Two minutes to Belgium!

Has anyone else noticed that the transition bits between series and specials, and now this, seem to involve David Tennant repeatedly going "What?!" He has about four different inflections, too.

There's quite enough bloody Estuary on the telly as it is, though at least we no longer have a Prime Minister who thinks it makes him sound like a Man of the People, when in fact it makes him sound fake.

I mean, it would at least have had novelty value if they'd gone for Cornish! Doctor. Or Welsh, since it's made by BBC Wales (though it would probably have descended rapidly into 'I'm reversing the polarity of the neutron flow, look you!')

I loathe all varieties of English that pronounce th as f, because it makes my name very ugly. If it becomes standard I'm moving to Dublin.

'I'm reversing the polarity of the neutron flow, look you!'

Yes, or Scotland. I find the southern t' (it is distinct in some way from an ordinary t, but I can't describe how) rather attractive though.
