I was quite tickled to find my fic for the First Doctor, The Benefits of Being Monochromatic won for his category in the Children of Time awards - thank you to everyone who voted! :-) Good work, also to the others on my flist who landed awards, especially the exceedingly well-deserving [livejournal.com profile] jjpor.

Not that there was a lot of competition in some of these, unfortunately - we need more good Onefic out there, folks...! And Two! And Three! Poor Three didn't even have enough to compete with this time, that's just sad. Come on, you can catch those plot-bunnies, I know you can.

Is Classic Who cool? Bizarre and different and wonderful and wide and witty and completely daft and dull and mind-blowing and surely not just one TV show, but cool? (Oh, maybe from time to time.)

Sometimes I think I need help. :lol:

PS In return for you reading my Two Ronnies cross, see here for the sketch I most had in mind (but the scene is set in the famous fork handles sketch. I think cultural differences might baffle there, but we had a shop just like this in my town growing up. (this is another example of the crossed conversations thing I had in my head.)

I won't add any of Ronnie C's monologues!!! Hope despite British obscurity, you have a giggle. I owe you something for reading it. :-D

Oh come! Surely you must admit Two winning the day in Mind Robber was uber-cool - and then there's Three's madcap multi-vehicular chase scene in Spiders... and Seven's trick with the broadcasting jazz boombox...

;-)

You've intrigued me, I'll have to go find this fork handles thingamabob.

And having seen both of them, it not only makes perfect sense it makes me enjoy the creative twist you put on them all the more. :-D I miss shops like that, I remember them when I was a kid - closest thing we have now is an old hardware store with bins you can dig in for assorted nuts, etc. now.

This also very much reminds me of a brilliant cross-talk (sort of) Barman Sketch by Fry and Laurie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvXl2mmIFYA). XD

Heh. I didn't know if they would be too incomprehensibly British! (But you are well-versed in 70s BBC TV after all that DW...). I hadn't seen the Fry and Laurie sketch before - very amusing. And, actually, it looks like they were deliberately updating The Two Ronnies (who were already legends in their own lifetimes by that point). Look at this one and spot the similarities!

Ha! Very cute! I'll have to go wander a bit and see what else they have floating around out there, I thoroughly enjoy pieces that showcase comic timing like this.
