Yay, you got to see it. And we agree on this one completely (except I didn't already know Henry Clerval)! I'm glad I wasn't the only who laughed at Justine falling off the cliff. I mean, it all happens so fast, it's like a scene from the Keystone Cops or Monty Python. (Like the sketch where the two office workers are calmly betting on who'll be the next body to fall past the window.)
I just saw an ad that Dr. Who is coming to the Sci-Fi Channel on Fridays--I might actually have to start watching it (if I remember it's on, which I'm really bad at doing). From the commercials, I think I already like David Tennant better as Dr. Who than as Barty Crouch in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. As a teen, I always wanted to like Dr. Who (starring Tom Baker), but somehow I could never quite stick with an episode long enough to catch on to the premise.
Yeah, i know the sketch well - they are disputing who it was that fell, and at the end they're encouraging a guy to jump - Come on Parky!
There was just so much more they could have done with it, had they had more runtime and budget. David was so sympathy-evoking, YES. Carrie Fisher wasnt totally wasted (literally, i heard she was alot in those days) and Powell made a great Frankenstein.
Yes, I knew Henry Clerval from Black Orchid, he played Lord Cranleigh, in full cricket gear. He was a bit disguised minus the 'stache, but i did instantly recognise his voice. http://www.shillpages.com/dw/story/d5/st--6a07.jpg and http://www.shillpages.com/dw/story/d5/st--6a29.jpg are caps from it. Good actor, yes. Very Victorian.
As for New Who, you probably know how i feel about it - i react each time it's on, and my reactions are out there for everyone to read.
