Television Programme Intros

[John the Monkey]

I've noticed most of my lady friends love DT. I don't think his dark side is dark enough though.

Christopher Ecclestone had that, imo. He was more a Jon Pertwee doctor (I think of DT as a Tom Baker doctor). I still think it's a shame he only did one season of new who.

No, and I'll be interested to see how dark the new chap is (as dark as you can be when you're a baby, I suppose). I reckoned David Morrisey would have been good, for that reason, he can do dark very well..

But we digress:

Pure 'comfort TV'

I was so in love with Mr Claypole.

If it's evocative you want, this is it for me.

This scared the bejesus out of me at the time, to the point where I couldn't watch the programme.

Day of the Triffids

Incidentally, speaking of classic British Sci-Fi,

Blake's Seven

Airwolf

I found an Airwolf DVD for my late BF for his last birthday a couple of years back (Didn't know it was going to be his last, BTW), he said it was the best birthday present he'd ever had.



Anyway,

Funnily, as I'm no great sports fan, this brings back memories. Classic teatime telly.

Following on from wafflycat's post (thank you) within the Steve Austin Birthday thread where one is able to click on a link to the classic Six Million Dollar Man intro,(plenty of surgeon's tools but not a screwdriver in sight ) I wondered what 'beginnings' stuck in your memory. A favourite or a hate?

- uninspiring, although the programme was amusing to me...
