Never Mind the Buzzcocks - Doctor Who Special

When I first heard about this, my reaction was "that's ... an odd idea". A Doctor Who themed episode of a somewhat anarchic music quiz.

And having watched it, my reaction is still that it was a very odd idea. In practice, being Doctor Who themed meant it was presented by David Tennant, Bernard and Catherine were on the teams. Jo Wylie made up the numbers on one team, and turned out to be a fan, and some singer made up the numbers on the other, and turned out to have no idea what anyone was talking about. Beyond that, and Ten's Who related links, there were some questions connected with space, some others connected with the words "doctor" and "who", and somewhat random appearances by Ood Sigma and a Dalek. I was disappointed that Kate Bush featured in one question, and no-one mentioned the mad fan theory that she wrote "Kinda".

(It's been a very long time since I last watched Buzzcocks. Bill Bailey was still a team captain, and I suspect he'd have been much more interested in a Doctor Who themed version than the new guy.)

So, yeah. Not bad, really, but ... odd.

And David Tennant is a Coldplay fan. Nobody's perfect.
