When were you #newtoWHO?
“I was helping my friend make her boyfriend a birthday cake. We spent 22 hours making him a TARDIS-shaped birthday cake… and I had never watched an episode of DOCTOR WHO. Two days after his birthday… and I sat down for weeks and did nothing but watch DOCTOR WHO.”
“It started off as, ‘This show’s okay,’ and then you realize you watched 7 episodes in 1 night, it’s 4am, and you have to be at work in 2 hours, and you’re just like, ‘I can do 1 more.'”
“I remember watching [Tom] Baker with my Dad and it scared the crap out of me… So, when it was re-released in 2005, it was my chance to, kind of, watch it and not be ridiculously scared… But there’ve been a couple of episodes where we’ve had to leave the nightlight on.”
