I've not heard or seen it! I'm quite intrigued. Care to give me a quick insight into what it is?

I've never seen it either and only know about it from your posts! For quite a while I was under the impression it was that thing with Pierce Brosnon in, but that's Remington Steele...

Just gobsmacked anyone who's ever been to doctorwho.co.uk or bigfinish.com doesnt at least know about the audio series?

Most Who fans have at least heard of the BF version...

Yes, Brosnan was in Remington Steele, which is equally brilliant but severely overacted - Brosnan was as scenery munching as Tennant has ever been...

I had seen it on the BF site along with Tomorrow People and Bernice Summerfield and a few others, but tunnel vision searching-for-Petey-audios soul that I am I always just click straight on Doctor Who! ;)

I did too, also for Petey tunnel vision, for a long time. Then i developed David tunnel vision which intensified when i met Petey, and I snapped them all up, yes.

no worries :)

I've heard of it, and that there's some sort of supernatural-ness, but I didn't look more into it, which is a bit of a shame now... I'll be off to research right away!

If you like the time travel concepts in Who, you'll like Sapph and Steel even more. Its very cerebral, but effects are basic at the same time. Acting is top notch, and its claustrophibic, spooky, and brilliant, utterly brilliant.

Never been so scared of a torch beam in my LIFE.

Time travel totally confuses me, but I like it all the same. Some of the Who stuff, some of the HP sets my head spinning, but in a good way I think.

Sounds good, I'll start looking out for it! :)O

I dont 'do' HP, but that's mainly just because i'm awkward like that, and tend to lean away from things that everyone else is massively hysterical about. Hee :)

Plus Hp fandom is insane, or so i've heard?

I'm not part of the HP fandom as such, all the shipping wars scare and annoy me, and I could never ship the characters of a magical plot anyway ;P

I'm talking about a bit in book 3, with the time-turner? confuses me completely. and yes, it is completely insane.
I stay away, mostly for my own health.

I've not read any of the books and only saw the first movie - cant imagine shipping them, they're just kids!

I have read the books, but I just can't ship them. I've grown up with them, so I just... can't.
