Ayer vimos el último especial de Navidad de Dr Who, es decir el que se emitió por la BBC One en diciembre de 2010.
Era una reelaboración muy original de A Christmas Carol de Dickens. ¡Otra más! Se podrá pensar, pero no, nada aquí era repetitivo ni trillado. (Ah, y cantaba Katherine Jenkins, pretty amazing!)
Entre otras cosas maravillosas, tenía este diálogo entre el Doctor y la versión joven del viejo desalmado al que había que cambiar. El chico se encuentra frente a la posibilidad de su primer beso y pide consejo al Doctor:
Middle Kazran: I've never kissed anyone before –what do I do?
The Doctor: Well, try and be all nervous and rubbish and a bit shaky.
Middle Kazran: Why?
The Doctor: Because you're going to be like that, anyway. You might as well make it part of the plan then it will feel on purpose, off you go then.
¿Qué mejor idea que incorporar como parte del plan lo que de todas formas vamos a hacer o nos va a pasar? Es perfecto el consejo: no luchar contra uno mismo y construir a partir de ahí.
Tener la posibilidad de ver Dr Who debería ser un derecho universal. Llevaría felicidad e ingenio a todos los hogares.

Julia, totalmente de acuerdo con la frase final de tu texto. Dr Who aporta, profundiza y no es un mero entretenimiento.
Saludos
My favourite episode of Dr Who was the first one, I think it was 1963 or '64, I loved it. I haven't watched it much since then. It sounds like it's improved. My problem with the daleks was how do they move around if there are no handicapped ramps? It's a big problem having a villain who can't climb stairs. You don't see Cervantes or Shakespeare making that kind of error.
Gracias, Felicidad! En veta muy cervantina diría que toda buena historia bien contada es entrenimiento que aporta ¿no?
AJP, Ha! Of course you can see Cervantes doing the same kind of "mistakes"! My Shakespeare is not so good to be sure, but I bet there must be lots of examples too.
I only saw Dr Who's episodes since 2005, but I'm not a fan of Daleks either. Though they can also fly now...
Flying daleks is a total cop out, they aren't built to fly. I'd make them roll over and bump down the stairs on their sides and if they want to go back up they have to wait for the lift . And then everyone could live safely in trees.
Well, not now anymore. Daleks are more invincible than ever. The world became more dangerous! Every time they appear, they are worst, but at the end the Doctor always destroys them for ever. It's a bit boring, I hate episodes with Daleks, but there aren't so many.
They just look like coffee machines. I hate them too, but then I'm a tea drinker.
¡JAJAJA!
