Doctor Who: Who Me?

"I do think it’s well over-time to have a female Doctor Who. I think a gay, black female Doctor Who would be the best of all."

Helen Mirren - she's a national treasure, saint etc etc - on Daybreak earlier, quoted in the Daily Express (and here, there and bleedin' everywhere).
The dame was saying how she doesn't want to be the next Doctor.
I'd love to see the Express's horror if the next Dr Who was a black lesbian.
Wanda Sykes would make a great Doctor, though.
Come on the BBC!

Update: Paramount once proposed making a Doctor Who movie with Michael Jackson in the lead. Well, two out of three ain't bad...

Helen Mirren: Ain't Noise Pollution

Obviously, anyone who goes and tells a bunch of stupid annoying twatting street drummers to shut the fuck up has Fagburn's full and unequivocal support.
So well done Dame Lady Helen Mirren.
Particularly as the cunts who pimped those drummers may now think before they again try to invade anyone's ears as an advertising space.
So fuck them - and good for you.
But there's something about how this silly bit of tittle-tattle became such a big story that's almost as annoying.
It's Daily Mail headline bingo again; "Queen Queens National Treasure Cuthbert Dibble Grub".
I know it happened over a bank holiday weekend, but even so you'd think the only people boring enough to bother covering this would be Gay Star News.
Fagburn ignored it, crossed my yellowing fingers, and hoped it would all go away, but it's still clogging up the tabloids today.
Wonderful free publicity for the woeful-sounding As One In The Park festival, of course.
And boy, with that letdown of a line-up, do they need it.
