Who Watch

[Milky Tears]

Those Doctor Who stars are still popping up everywhere. There's no escape.

Classic and crappy old films, ITV1 Drama Premieres, voiceovers on dodgy TV ads, classic sitcoms, almost everything on ITV3/4, 1970s' British Sex Comedies, anything to do with Masterchef*, almost any old horror film, whatshername from thingy on UKTV Drama, local TV, ropey plays, one in five BBCTV shows made in 2006*, that DVD Box Set you bought last year but just started watching last week, etc, etc...


It must be time for Who Watch 3D!

Who have you spotted recently?





* that'll be India Fisher
**if your name is John Barrowman




I'm still working my way through The Forsyte Saga (BBC 1967 version). It's crammed with Whoey Goodness but not very small and neat. It's a 20hr epic!!

Christopher Benjamin has just turned up playing Prosper Profond in episode thirteen.

Young Martin Jarvis is still in it and Terence Alexander, John Bennett (superb as Philip Bosinney), Cyril Luckham, John Ringham, John 'Rossini' Baskcomb, Peter Copley, Colin Douglas, Nicholas Pennell, Robin 'Altos' Phillips, Alan Rowe and The Mighty Jenny Laird also appear.

Jonathan "Silas P" Burn is easily the hammiest one. His performance as Val Dartie is shocking!

Corrie's Maggie 'Blanche' Jones (playing Smither the maid) is my favourite, though. Get her in Doctor Who.

[Dirk Gently]

I watched John Barrowman on 'Never Mind the Buzzc.ocks' last night.

I never realised how camp he could be. Funny though.

[Ralph]

Nick Courtney played a psychiatric Doctor in an episode of The Champions I watched last night

[Pip Madeley]

Catherine Tate & Peter Kay in 'The Catherine Tate Show'.

Obvious? Who dear? Me dear? Obvious dear? Yes dear!

[Larry]

watched a film last night on Channel 5 with Johnny Depp, about Jack The Ripper, and a certain Sophia Myles was listed in the credits ...though can't say i noticed her..

[Paul Clement]

I've been watching a lot of Christopher Benjamin and David Daker in the Dick Turpin series DVD.

[Rob McCow]

We just watched a few episodes of The Smoking Room, with the original Sevateem Leader - Leslie Scofield

Spiker!!!!!!!!!!

[Paul Clement]

Christopher Benjamin does the grotesque so well. He drools through most of his lines, and you watch intently waiting for the saliva to drop from his bottom lip.

[Andy Frankham]

That'll be 'From Hell'. Which also features Lesley Sharp, who, of course, played opposite Christopher Eccleston in Russell T. Davies' 'The Second Coming'.

[Milky Tears]

Sophia Myles was also in Underworld on Channel 4 last night.

Art School Confidential is her finest performance.

I've just realised my Dick Turpin Series Two DVD has remained sealed for over a year. Still got a few Series One episodes to watch as well.

[Paul Clement]

Sophie Aldred was doing her usual stint on Playhouse Disney on the kids cookery programme Bite Size. Rhiannon loves it.

[Larry]

watching Peter Benson, in Heartbeat who was also in Terminus..

Poor sod.

I can't believe I've been missing this. I wasn't even aware she was on Playhouse Disney. That's shocking...


almost as shocking as discovering that Larry watches Heartbeat.

and I thought you were calling Peter Benson a poor sod for having been in Terminus...

is that because the picture quality is truly shengis?

[Jonno]

So far tonight I've seen Bernard Cribbins and Sylvia Coleridge in The Avengers episode "The Girl from Auntie", plus Lynda Baron in EastEnders!

[Paul Clement]

I too saw Lynda Baron in Eastenders.

[Milky Tears]

McGann narrating Trauma on BBC1 and Shaun Parkes was in Random Quest on BBC Four.

[Antony Cox]

Peter Howell was on Radio 4 this morning talking about the history of the Radiophonic Workshop (the peice opened with the 1972 'fake stereo' version of the original theme, albeit without the TARDIS sound effect intro).

Appareently there's a talk/concert thingy on the RW at the Royal Festival Hall this evening.

[SiHart]

There is indeed. I wanted to go along, but I'm working late and I have a to bake a cake for my sister's birthday tonight too.

It would have been the kind of thing I would really enjoy too.
