BBC manages to get the wrong guy on air

[The guy who was meant to be on] added that it was especially surprising because the man, who spoke with a French accent, looked nothing like him. “I’m not black. I’m not-black on a startling scale; I’m fair-haired, blue-eyed,prominent-nosed, and with the sort of pale skin that makes my dermatologist wince each time I complain about an itchy mole.”

BWHAHAHA. You can read more about it, and see the priceless clip, here.

GOLD. Never say the BBC ain't colourblind, eh?

I'd opine on Rise of the Cybermen here, but given that it is the first part of a two-parter and did feel like a set-up, I shan't yet. I'll just note that David Tennant looks hot in a tux. Yes. BBC YOU CRUEL BASTARDS GIVE US THE NEXT PART

Blah work blah life blah where the hell is the slots for the DVD plugs new TV blah

Somewhere between good and okay. How it is resolved in part two will determine that.

Yeah, that sums up my own reaction pretty well. It seems to be better than last year's first cliffhanger, though. I'm oddly grateful for the fact that Cybermen don't fart...
