    Slightly off topic so I’ve stuck this into the forum instead,
    But it seems Dr Dwarf now has an equal and a nemesis in the form of
    The Master Hitchhiker.

    After watching the “sound of drums” story of origin of the Masters
    madness being caused when he was a young boy on gallifrey, I couldnt
    help but think any fans of HitchHikers Guide might have found some
    of what happened a little similar to this concept and story line…

    Still in a small way nice to once again see douglas adams ideas being
    referenced in Dr Who if that is what it is.

    I knew it was familiar but I couldn’t remember where from.

    Yeah, I suppose that The Master is like Zaphod Beeblebrox in that looking into the Vortex makes him think of himself as the most important being in the universe.

    Aye, I thought Total Perspective Vortex as well. Along with the Someone Else’s Problem fields that the TARDIS crew had round their necks.

    This is all building up to the reveal that DNA didn’t die in 2001 – he regenerated into RTD.

    (Bah, typing that made me think how awesome it’d be to have Douglas Adams writing for the revived series. It’d definitely have happened. Ecclestone and/or Tennant acting from a Douglas Adams script… cor.)

    Actually, that could still happen.

    Someone should make that happen. NOW.

    Looks like Doctor Dwarf got a bit overshadowed in favour of
    ripping off big film trilogys instead this week.

    As the Masters funeral pire became very
    return of the Jedi/meets LOTR sauron’s ring.
