Watched it yesterday on sky gold. It was one of them before jock died. Classic TV. JR is such a jerk it’s unreal, I know, it’s only fictitious but great program when I was a nipper..

 

[Robot Chicken]

I've seen trailers for the show, they show Justin approaching the stars but things going badly wrong.

I read he wants to do a Bring Back...Star Wars one day. That would be very interesting.

They had abit about this on Johnatha Ross on friday, JLC gets into JR's golf buggy to speak to him.

Already have my reminder set, never actually watched Dallas but JLC was ruddy fantastic on the A-Team version so it should be good tv, especially as there is actually bugger all else on.

 

[Kenhead]

Was only watching Johnatha Ross as the delightful Freema Agyeman was on, Ozzy Osborne was quite funny aswell, JLC was the first guest on the show.

Freema Agyeman has apparently been sacked from Doctor Who. They're on the look out for a new assistant already.

Load of rubbish!

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Load of rubbish!

Penguin shit stirring?

I'd never believe it!

 

[Robot Chicken]

Then I stand corrected.

Another rumour was that Jason Statham would be taking over from David Tennant. I can't even begin picturing that but from what I've seen of Statham, he'd bring a hell of an edge to the role.

 

[Kenhead]

Well it was in The Sun, but i never really believe half the stuff that's printed in there.

Who knows. I'm still disappointed Christopher Eccleston decided not to stay on for a second season.

Robert Carlisle was tipped awhile back, but Tennant is contracted up to do up until the end of the 4th series.

I think its a case with all these rumours that doctor who is a very popular show and its easy to fill afew colum inches with rumours of so and so actor/actress going to be the doctor/new assistant.

Agyemans preformance in saturday nights episode was one of her bests, so doubt the beeb will want to drop her after that.

It's still early in the fourth season, according to the news her performance is not as strong later on. I like her, she brings an "every girl" quality to the role.

I grew up with Doctor Who being played by Peter Davison and was very disappointed when the Paul McGann one off TV film in 1996 didn't lead to a full series.

Not really a massive suprise when he was quoted in saying tha he had done the long haul soon after the first episode had appered on screen.

The thing i find disapointing that the Mcgann pilot didn't go down well in the states as there was an agrement to make a 7 year series if it did. Got good audiance figures over here tho, thats the reason why there couldn't have been any new who on the BBC until after 2003

 

[Robot Chicken]

I wish they'd re-show that McGann show again, just for a comparison with the new shows!!

 

[Robot Chicken]

Oh dear. Poor Linda Grey!

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I've started watching it now, the tune was fantastic.

 

[dougdeep]

Dallas always was, always is and always will be absolute rubbish. (In my opinion of course)

They started showing the Pertwee ones on bb2 at 6pm, around 1999 when i was at college, i had to get my mum to tape it as would always get in halfway through. Would rather they did that until eventually get through to the Mcgann one.

I've got the Mcgann one on dvd but have to admit i tend to get a 70's one out if i fancy watching any
