Obligatory "D/W" posting

Finally, an automated recommendation from Amazon that was worth ordering: the BBC spoken-word CD "Moths Ate My Doctor Who Scarf" by Toby Hadoke. Don't let the Edinburgh Fringe credentials fool you, this isn't stand-up comedy. It's more like sit-down amusement as TH retraces his timeline of "D/W" devotion with the help of actors (including Colin Baker and Louise Jameson) and brief samples from various episodes. In the course of 55 minutes, he extolls the program's virtues, defends it from common criticisms and makes us understand (if we didn't already) why a boy might latch onto the imaginary figure of the Doctor and never let go.
