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.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
