Sorry to go off topic but I did start the thread after all :-)

I have had a good think, slept on it and I think you are right, Jack. Anything with a YOU in it does make it personal and I do apologise if by doing so I caused any offense. I will certainly have a think and a few breaths before any future posts. In my defense I think that most people do fall into the same trap. On this thread, at least, it stops here. Thanks for that

What I intended to say after the criticism of the Nu-Who is that I have a different view and believe it is a well produced and executed series. I can compare it to the old Doctor as I am of that age (60) where I have fond memories of the early ones. I think the plot lines and the themes in the new series have improved significantly as have the effects and production quality. It does not have the raw originality of the old one but, then again, it never could.

The new one has been made for today's audience which, thank heavens, is vastly different from the one in 1963. Just as I am a different person from that 10 year old lad sat in front of the 14" black and white screen. Neither I nor the Doctor can go back to then. Oh, hang on... :-)

Cheers
