Welcome to the launch of Five-Minute Doctor Who as a formal subsite! This move was indicated by two things: great enthusiasm on the part of Scooter, our new section head, and the need to broaden 5MV's range to include more current shows now that Enterprise is no more. I have high hopes for this subsite -- we've already got two strong contributors (Scooter and SCMoll), several interested guest writers, and a pretty decent supply of Whovians in the audience, judging by a popular thread at the forums. To launch 5MDW ("when there's trouble you call DW"... sorry), we're doing a three-day event, each day covering three Doctors. Since we're going in Doctoral order, the first three are covered today, as follows:
(Note: The marvelous SaRa, who's currently redesigning our LiveJournal, made us the 5MDW subsite banner on short notice. Thanks a million, SR!) (Note 2: In the About section, you'll find new FAQs for 5MDW and Scooter.)

Huzzah!
I enjoyed that "Spearhead from Space" fiver in a sort of masochistic way. :lol:

The sad part is, I not only got the Magic joke, but I understood perfectly how it's supposed to work.
Also, nice job with the Bond movie titles, I was groaning all the way. Gatac

Never having watched any Doctor Who, I can't really comment on the fivers, but I love the question in your FAQ:

Congrats to Scooter and the rest of the DW fans hereabouts... great to see the new subsite!
Unfortunately my familiarity with DW is precisely nil, so for the forseeable future the subsite will be among the 70% of the site that I don't actually touch... but, now I've got more incentive to find some episodes to watch!

Hopefully this means I'm excused until circumstances are somewhat improved.

Anyway, sorry you can't get a good look. Since there are so many folks who've had limited access to Doctor Who, maybe I should copy Derek's idea and do a few comic book adaptations!
