Re: delia derbyshire video
I must also profess my dedication to Dr Who, the music and the TV
Series. (There is by the way a fascinating documentary called
"Alchemists of sound" that I have on my computer - about the whole of
the BBC's Radiophonic Workshop, the unique electronic music studio...
Ill post it somewhere if theres some interest).
I was an avid watcher as a kid and profess that my first doctor was
Jon Pertwee, moving on to Tom Baker. I even phoned in to Swap Shop to
ask the question "How long is your scarf?" When he was on. (I wasnt
allowed to ask the question, cos that was th qustion HE was gonna ask
so the views could win it!!!) And I was often hiding behind the sofa or
a cushion on a Saturday Evening.
It is true that they seemed to go down hill after me (I hate Peter
Davison myself) but isnt that the nature of the program, that it grows
up with you? You "Doctor is always the "real one" . God I watched the
"new one" last night and Blimey, it was still exiting, the Daleks are
still very frightening! AND the Doctor transmogrified (or whatever it
was called) into yet a NEW Doctor (genius explanation for an actor
moving on) ...Blimey I hadnt even seen the old one before!!!
Anyway.. sorry for the OT reminiscence..
