I personally don't remember the 90ties to look that... unstylish and scrubby (?) But it probably isn't just a british thing, is it? It's just my selective memory.
I first watched this on ITV3 I think. I saw David and I kept saying "LOOK AT DAVID!! OH MY GOODNESS!! LOOK AT HIS HAIR!!" Then there was nothing else on telly so I settled for this. I love this with every bone in my body xD
OMG! I thought I was the only person who remembered this! Proof I've loved Mr Tennant long before Dr Who, he had quite an effect on me at an impressionable age *blush*
I forgot all about this until they showed it tonight on bbc4.. I used to hang about the hospital with all my mates as a kid, and chat to some of the patients.. Victor!!!! OMG!! Just got a flashback of the stuff we used to do there... Brilliant!!!! Cheers for puttin this on. GARTLOCH MENTAL HOSPITAL.. THINK ITS GONNA BE FLATS NOW. BOOOOOOOOOO!!!
This show is incredible. I really mean it! It's amazing how well they've put together the story and characters. And the mix with humour seriousness are completely awesome! =D I've decided that the person who made all this must've been a true genius. ^^
Thank you so much for posting this. I've heard good things about this show, and had seen a clip, but it's not available in my country. So thank you! Thank you!
He doesn't show up for a while - not in this segment, anyway - but I'm fairly certain you'll recognise him when you see him. XD Well, perhaps not, but it's not too difficult to figure out who he is, despite his radtastic 90s hairstyle.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I saw this when it first came out on the TV and loved it. I'll definitely be working my way through the series. Is that a young Ashley Jensen with the braids?
I got hooked from the very first one you posted--thank goodness you had them all to watch or I would've gone loony! :) This is a great series and thank you so much for taking the time to post it for us!
If I recall correctly, someone wrote to the producers a while back about possible DVD release dates, and nothing's been put on the books yet. Doesn't look like they'll ever get around to it, at least not anytime soon.
Apparently it has something to do with the cost of clearing all the music that plays such an intergral part to the show. Boo hiss I say, lol! This show absolutely needs to be brought to a global market - cash in on David's name now, and they'd make up the money in no time, just by selling to the DW fans alone! ;-)
Scroll up! you're missing the video!
