I was really hoping Derek would be a new character and stick around for awhile.
You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

Me too -- he's such a good actor! I suppose it was fun all around to get somebody of his caliber to guest-star.

He did do the voice of the Master for those animated web adventures with Richard E. Grant as the Doctor. But I agree, it would have been nice to have a few episodes with Jacobi in the role before making him regenerate.
Also, between this and Underworld Evolution I am kind of surprised to find that Jacobi pushes back the frontier of actors I find hot by nearly two decades. I can't think of anyone else my dad's age that I think that of.

I've been Derek Jacobi's bitch since I, Claudius - love, love, love him!
right now I'm watching the season 2 Dr Who with Sarah Jane Smith AIFG!! the way Tennant looked at her with such love and awe when they met, and bonus ASH is in this ep, too!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
New episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures air in the UK starting Monday.

I think Stark's interest in his wellbeing was evident before that, and is sincere.
Ditto.

Dear GOD I loved this last Doctor Who. OMG. I love Derek Jacobi anyway, and he was so good in the role. I felt SO bad for his assistant, though. And totally agree that I would have loved Jacobi to stay around for a few more episodes. Oh well. Awsome!!!

I am now tilting my head over all the "OMG—SO HOT!!!1!" squeeing about SGA promo pics in which DH looks to me like he's suffering stomach flu. I mean, dude can look pretty good in a non-matinee idol way, but not when he's sheet pale and scowling at the camera with his chin tucked in.

DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT. Comcast has screwed up my digital cable, so that I don't actually get any digital channels. Ergo, no Torchwood. Does anyone know where I can ahem them?
