I will have to see which Doctor I am. I, personally, like Four and Seven the best, and have never seen Eight or Nine.
Make Cass want skin like that too.
HA! It's a trick of the light. My skin is freckled, blotchy, and breaks out if you say boo at it too loudly. The bright sun + camera blows it out, though, making me look nice and white instead of mottled.
WOO!
You are the Seventh Doctor: Brooding, enigmatic, soulful, and occasionally silly. There are a great many mysteries lurking behind your ancient eyes, and even your closest companions aren't allowed to know the full extent of your schemes and concerns. You are often downright manipulative, using friends and adversaries alike as chess pieces in a private game against the universe. Your wrath is slow to build, but terrible when aroused, and you are slowly settling old scores with threats across the cosmos.
I ::heart:: the Seventh Doctor. HEART, I say.
I've never watched any of them... Is this good? Or dreadful?
He was my least favourite Doctor. Indeed, the only one I actively disliked. Though I think too that the quality of the stories dipped in his period, which doesn't help.

Really? I mostly tend to forget he existed, but the only one I disliked was the Fifth. (Though I've loved the actor in other things, I just disliked that version of the Doctor.)

Some of his later stories were among the most mature the show has produced, I think. (The Curse of Fenric is my favourite.) Spawned a huge string of novels too.

I agree, though it's been years since I saw them. I need to see them again, frankly. Are the novels any good?

Oooh, I have a picture of myself like that. Guess there's a reason they call things a trick of the light. Your skin always look just flawless in pictures. And I am still envious.

Actively disliked?
I need to retake the test.

Oh yes. The Fifth was quite bland (though following Tom Baker just exacerbated that), but the Sixth was thoroughly unpleasant. Treated his companions like crap, acted like the sun shone out of his various orifices, but without the charm of the Ninth or Fourth to make it endearing instead of boorish.

Some of them are (others are awful, of course; it's a big series). I like the Eighth Doctor novels best myself. The 'New Adventures' Seventh Doctor series does some interesting things with Ace; their relationship deteriorates almost irreparably because of his manipulative streak, and she winds up spending some time away from him as a mercenary.
I've never seen a single episode of Doctor Who
I did think it was a little sad that in the latest Lush newsletter, they referenced both Wallace Stevens' "The Emperor of Ice Cream" and daleks, and had to explain the whole "emperor of ice cream" thing. But didn't have to explain daleks. (Because really, how can you?)
I don't think they quite got the meaning of the poem, anyway.
SO! Who wants to play with African scammers? I just got the following, and can't tell if it's the "give us your bank account number" or the "pay for the costs of probate" or some combination.
Dear Winchester,
RE: UNCLAIMED FAMILY INHERITANCE.
This is to extend our notification to your knwoledge that the Board of this firm, hereby inform you that after our annual auditing and meeting, we discovered an unclaimed consignment valued the sum of US$5,500,000 which was deposited by Mr.Dan Winchester an engineer in Africa Oil Company.
Before his death, he deposited a box valued about US$5,500,000 in our custody which he declared as family valuable and instructed that it should be release to his next of kin. After our inquires from his employer about his family, we were told that they all involved in an auto crash,we then proceed to his embassy to enable us trace any of his relation, but it proved abortive, because he has spent more then a decade in Ghana. We decided to trace his family through any possible means, but no sucess was made before we decided to contact you , since you have the same surname with our late client.
The management has approved the release of the consignment to you as the beneficiary. In regards to this development, you are required to contact Barr.John Bosah who stood and signed as his family lawyer on the day of the deposit via his email address : barr_johnbosah@freeghana.com for details.
Thanks for choosing our company and hoping to claim your consignment urgently.
Yours Truly,
Ms.Kate Williams.
Auditor
