Tony Who

I literally cannot miss one moment of Doctor Who. I know very little about anything to do with it before the great revival in the forms, first of Christopher Ecclestone, and now of David Tennant. But from there on in, I'm completely hooked. So the dazzling scene when the Master regenerated from Derek Jacobi into John Simm was right up my street (not least because I was also a big fan of Life On Mars).

But it was the preview of next week's episode that promised something utterly priceless: Simm, as the utterly evil Master, is to go undercover as a British Prime Minister who is obviously supposed to be Tony Blair. This is to be broadcast on Saturday evening, and Blair will resign on the following Wednesday afternoon.

So there you are, Tony: a fond farewell from the BBC.

And so say all of us!

UPDATE: Look out for guest stars Sharon Osborne, McFly, and Ann Widdecombe. So yes, this really is "Tony Blair is the Master". Good old Auntie, eh?
