Ten Life Lessons From Doctor Who

"2. Being weird is cool. Running shoes and a suit, bow ties, or even a fez – none of these things in themselves cool. But being yourself, in all your quirkiness, is. Human societies are good at teaching individuals to mind their place, to keep in line and to conform. We teach our children too often to fit in with society’s expectations. Yet I cannot think of a single person who I admire, or who has accomplished anything extraordinary, who was not weird in some major way."

May 11 2 Chart maps out River Song and the Doctor’s timey-wimey relationship

"The first two episodes of Doctor Who have featured Alex Kingston as River Song – the mysterious lover of the Doctor, but many questions remain about her.

One thing we do know is that they are moving backward or forward to each other. David Tennant’s Doctor met River first and she already knew him and since then clues have been slowly given to us.

A Whovian put together the above chart (click on it for a bigger version) to try and explain the relationship and how it applies to River and the Doctor. I am not sure if it is 100% accurate but it does go some way to put it all together."

The Doctor's transformations were meant to convey the "hell and dank horror" of the hallucinogenic drug, according to papers published on the BBC Archive. "
