And then I met a man called the Doctor. A man who could change his face. And he took me away from home in his magical machine. He showed me the whole of time and space. I thought it would never end.

Yeah, you kinda have to watch it a few times for it to sink in.

But you can also watch the new trailer! With Roranicus! And look at the new magazine cover!

There are pics too, of episode 7 if you look far enough thru the web, and then Zoe told me about episode 8 - now that one I have to see! Especially with the special someone who shows up. Since I have only seen him twice maybe I'll get a better idea about him and what you are all raving about with the older episodes.

Cash's username is long, so his posts are indented. If you notices Ally's posts, her signature is long, so it extends past where everyone else's ends.
