Some topics these last weeks:
* Much trivia. Mostly useless things (no offense) such as
other plays and things that Doctors were in.
* Some talk about what Jelly-babies really are.
* A few requests for the Doctor Who scarf.
* Alot of messages explaining the popularity of Doctor
Who in both America and Europe.
Most agree that he's popular because of the setting.
Since he can travel in both time and space, the only
limit to what settings he is in is the budget.
* A posting of the 'Episode Title Guide' by ihuxx!robert1.uucp@harpo.UUCP (uucp) (07/07/84)

Well, it's been busy these past two weeks in net.tv.drwho.
We've had lots of articles, and lots of interest. It seems
that the doctor(s) are catching to some people and more are
interested, especially since the sixth Doctor is about to
surface. Some dicussions about:
* Davidson's celery
* 'Key to Time'
* Romana and her regeneration (why/when)
* the six Doctors:
Who the are (no pun intended)
how many seasons the graced us with
companions
why they left
* Dr Who books
Also, alot of trivia was posted, from Pertwee to Davidson,
and everyone in between.
One other thing, a few people posted their thoughts and
experiences at Panopticon. There were lots of good times,
and alot of money was made for the Special Olympics.
