Doctor Who

I'm trying to catch up on Dr Who. Right now, am going through the third season and wow there are some seriously brilliant episodes. I saw 'Human Nature' and 'Family of Blood' and found it super-brilliant, one of my all-time favourite episodes, right up there with 'The Doctor Dances' and then I saw 'Blink' and that was even better.
Now I've got to stop myself watching another episode because it's late, but that's going to be really difficult, because I saw John Barrowman in the preview. Or was it just that it's late and it's not John Barrowman after all?

Funny thing is, though, the boy Timothy in 'Family of Blood', I was sure I had seen him before and I was wrecking my brain if he perhaps was the boy in 'The Doctor Dances,' or an allusion to another episode, and then I checked the actor and he actually was Sam in 'Love Actually.' So Yeah. Anyway. Must sleep.

Oh, yes it was John Barrowman. Were you able to resist?

Indeed, I was.

And the reward was that the stupid cat kept pestering me until after 2 a.m., so I could just as well have watched it.

I am convinced Emma secretly is Doctor Who fan as well.

Emma has extraordinarily good taste for a cat! :D

Yes it is John Barrowman and Utopia is one of my favourite season 3 episodes. Pretty much on par with the 3 you've mentioned as well :P

You really shouldn't say such things when I'm trying to tell myself that watching series during the day is not a good idea. Gah. Must be strong.

Well I really liked it more because the ending blew my mind. then you want to go back and watch it again to see what you missed.

But this might just be me and my sadness. I know other people who didn't really enjoy it all that much.
