Used to be addicted to the old Pertwee and Tom Baker shows. Have only seen the new ones once since we don't have cable where I am in Hawaii.

They have to be great though

They are really good. The one I saw last night with the library has some of the best 'effects' I have ever seen in the show. Ever see any of the old ones with the doctor that wore the long scarf? I wouldn't mind seeing those on reruns again. Dr. Who and Dexter are the 2 shows I try not to miss.

We are big Doctor Who geeks at our house too!

My husband was reading online and David Tenet, who plays the handsome doctor, is no longer in the show. BUMMER!!!! Some guy who's not nearly as cute!

RWG- I think the effects on that show are pretty good, too. I was kind of surprised when BBC classified it as low-budget.

Happy Doctor Who-ing! :lol:

I agree. We just saw this year's Christmas Special and it made me cry. I hope the new doctor on 2010 is as good as the current one. He's my favorite!

Thats Tom Baker with the long scarf. My son sent us a dozen Dvds of various episodes he knows we like for Christmas.

I did some work with the BBC producer then but never could get on the show dressed as some cyberman <G>

so....who would win in a fight.....Rose or Martha? Donna dosn't look like much of a fighter.

My family is also bummed over the change in doctors, but we were also bummed the first time and that turned out great.

I don't know... Donna gets kind of scrappy toward the end of the season. (We have the real BBC channel at home and saw the Donna season already) I didn't watch much with Rose, but she makes an appearance at the end of the season. She's pretty tough. My money might be on her. :lol::lol:

We are also big Doctor Who fans, and have been for over twenty years. I personally put my money on Rose in any fight betweent the three (Rose, Martha, Donna).

I'm a bit confused over the library episode. The heavily implied that David Tenet was going to have an extended future with Dr. River Song. How can they then change to a new doctor, since it was his face that she continued to recognize?

Oh well, I just hope that the new doctor will be good. They generally are, but it's definitly a matter of opinion. This will be his ninth re-generation, so they don't have many more new actors they can get to do the role.

My mom is a huge fan of Dr Who and has been since I was a child.... Her fav is the first guy she loved him! Ill tell you... we were talking on Sunday and she found out that theres a new Dr. and She is NOT thrilled out him at all... So hopefully he's good. I liked the last guy he was cute in his OWN way.

I ordered seasons 1-4 and I'm half way through the 2nd. I got the complete series on e-bay for $120. My boyfriend, daughter and myself are just addicted to this show! I read that David Tennant wanted to be "The Doctor" since he was three, and is leaving the show to play Hamlet in a play. Also, he is Scottish and fakes his accent for the show. I also read that the new shows will start in 2010. I wonder how much of this info is true.

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
