Ironic, since Douglas Adams wrote a good number of Tom Baker's episodes.

Well, maybe not that many, but he wrote "The Pirate Planet," "City of Death," and "Shada" (which wasn't fully filmed but was later remade as a radio adventure featuring the Eighth Doctor).

Red Dwarf, definitely, except from when that woman joined - I would actively encourage this strange force to wipe those episodes.
Erm, that might make me sound a bit misogynistic...Ah well, f*ck it.

Good man! I have the Brass Eye episodes on DVD, including that paedophile special. Shame Morris's never done much since. That Nathan Barley was rubbish, which surprises me because Charlie Brooker collaborated on that, and he's really funny, usually.
And in the course of typing this, I have just remembered that Charlie Brooker is on the telly tonight, and I think I might have missed it. f*ck's sake.

It's not misogynistic. The show just got a lot worse at that point.
