That's a good idea, except for the fact they've got Hubbard's birthday wrong. It's the 13th, not the 15th!

One of the cool things about Nextwave is that Aaron Stack's awesome characterisation has been carried over to his appearances in the Ms Marvel series. I love Nextwave. :)
Polyglot electrical outlets at the European Broadcasters' Union

Error404: Yeah, I know the E's for European, but last time I checked the US and Japan aren't part of Europe, and there are sockets for them. :)
Not all NZ plugs are 3-pin. Some are only 2-pin (no ground), so it's possible they could fit on the third socket from the left...

What's going to stop these poor folk from sliding towards the head-end of the bed and ending up hunched against the headboard? Are there going to be ropes linking their feet to the bottom of the bed? Perhaps something like stocks for them to stick their feet through...

The new series just opened the flood gates for wacky Doctor Who merchandise. You just know somehow, somewhere, one of these will turn up in 50 years time on whatever eBay has mutated into by then.

I was kinda surprised when they announced Steven Moffat was writing the scripts - surely if they're writing them from the original books, the plot and most of the dialogue is already going to be set. Is there going to be much for the writer to do?
OTOH, if there's not a lot of actual work in it, it frees him up to write some more episodes of Doctor Who. :)
