Lungbarrow still scares me though. I didn't 'get' Ghostlight, so perhaps that's why (brilliant lines... "how much money?" but the story was... well... I dunno what the story was) Personally, I love Ghost Light, but I realise that I may be blinded somewhat by my love for Seven and Ace, who are both magnificent here, and Redvers Fenn-Cooper (great, great Brit character actor Michael Cochrane), who just cracks me up with just about every line. Certainly, it is a very strange story, and I can't honestly claim to understand every twist and turn of the plot, but I dunno, it works for me, a bit like The Big Sleep, or something.

Lungbarrow is the looms one, yes?
And on a different note: Unexpected Naked Benton > Unexpected Naked Jack.

Lungbarrow is the looms one, but on a plus note, it does feature President Romana, and: Unexpected Naked Benton > Unexpected Naked Jack. Undoubtedly.

A truer word has nver been spoken, though... as far as unexpected neekid Doctor's go,
somewhat expect neekid Eight > Unexpected neekid Three > Unexpected neekid Ten clone

Blimey, for a 'children's' show, it sure does have a lot of Unexpected Nakedness.
Three, Benton, Eight, Jack, Hand!Ten. Am I forgetting anyone?

xD Not really. If just wearing something over nakedness is nakedness, we'd all be naked.

ca.youtube.com/watch?v=z8u4TMAXCmgSo much awesome... If someone could tell me where the clip at the end with the bad greenscreen is from "here kittykittykitty! come and get your dindins!" Benton is such win. I'm a bit surprised there was no unexpected neekid Benton though... lol, perhaps John Levene is trying to forget about that ill-fated spin-off??? (lol) edit ca.youtube.com/watch?v=6e0ylo-oC0g&NR=1hehehe! Benton is win

As for the inexplicable exclusion of any Naked Benton clips, well, we've already been over the extreme rarity of surviving copies, but I think it's also a very painful memory for all concerned; their chance of (even greater) greatness snatched away by cruel fate... ;D

Sure thing! Any requests? Well, the whole E-space trilogy to begin with, especially Warrior's Gate, with which I am kind of obsessed, because I am sad (or so my sister says)... And the Happiness Patrol, because it is such a long time since I last saw it, and because Sylv sings in it, and because the Kandyman is pure awesome, despite what all of those naysayers might say... Or, failing that, maybe expand your reality-bending powers to non-Who-related undertakings, such as Liverpool FC winning every week, or me winning the Lottery a few times...that kind of thing...

Doesn't the E-space trilogy sort of exist already? I mean, it's in a big box with "JNT" scrawled upon it in my living room closet, gloat gloat.... Happiness Patrol, it's in a Sylvester-themed shoe box (I have very big feet) in the hall closet. I'm giving you an innocent and confused yet earnest look right now.

I don't think it's been DVD released yet... (yes, VHS, but my players on the edge of kicking it, and nobody gives up those tapes for under fifty bucks a story... not that I've seen anyway) but, but! I think the E-space trilogy is this year's boxset release so YAY! I'm thinking of begging for it for Christmas... but I'm so torn as to what I want to beg for. Though, boxset = more DVDs, and I actually know where to find the new Beginnings trilogy... and that would be almost the entirity of season 18... and JNT is scary but... hmmm... So Torn 'cause I also want Caves, Survival, and Inferno, and... oooo, half a dozen other stories (half of which aren't on DVD) and ooo.... I should make a poll. I should. My Mum asked me what I want for my 21st and I just kind of blanked and didn't say anything. Xp

Yeah, I do actually have a very old, very fuzzy VHS recording of Happiness Patrol and many of the other Seven stories (recorded off the telly when they repeated them on cable! Don't tell the cops!), but my ancient steam-powered VCR finally gave up the ghost a few months ago... I thought Newton was going to use her uncanny magicky wishy powers to make them appear before my very eyes, but she's too busy off wishing herself Empress of North America, ending world hunger, that kind of thing...

This came up on the cbox so I thought I'd mention it here - John Levene posts odd bits of home movies on youtube under ShakenNotStirredProd - his little tribute to Jon this Christmas was very homemade and I thought rather sweet. He likes it when people visit his website and will sometimes respond to you if you leave a note, btw - he talks about how Jon was a friend, father and mentor for him and how much he misses him there too. www.john-levene.comDear old Benton! He really *is* a loyal fellow, isn't he?

By the way, John Levene once attended a Milwaukee Time Lords meeting, and I believe ended up marrying a member of the club. This would have been before my time in the club, in the 80s, but that's what they all say happened, and these are stable people. You know that is a good idea. Marry a fan girl and get her to what ever you want. She will adore you.
