RE: Doctor Who
David Tennant quits as Doctor Who Wednesday, 29 October 2008 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/7698539.stm David Tennant is to stand down as Doctor Who, after becoming one of the most popular Time Lords in the history of the BBC science fiction show. Tennant stepped into the Tardis in 2005, and will leave the role after four special episodes are broadcast next year. He made the announcement after winning the outstanding drama performance prize at the National Television Awards. "When Doctor Who returns in 2010 it won't be with me," he said. "Now don't make me cry," he added. "I love this part, and I love this show so much that if I don't take a deep breath and move on now I never will, and you'll be wheeling me out of the Tardis in my bath chair." 'I'll miss it' Three years was "about the right time" to play the role, he told the BBC in an exclusive interview. "I think it's better to go when there's a chance that people might miss you, rather than to hang around and outstay your welcome," he said. His stint in the show had been "the most extraordinary time, it's been bewildering, life changing, very exciting", he said. "And just so much fun, such a great show to work on. "That's one of the reasons I think it's right to take a deep breath and bow out when it's still fun, when it's a novelty. "I don't ever want it to feel like a job, so I want to move on when it still feels exciting and fresh and that means I'll miss it." Drama award Tennant, the 10th actor to play the Doctor Who, left fans guessing about his return at the end of the latest series. In the last episode, in July, the Doctor had to defeat his enemies the Daleks to save the universe. Almost 10 million people watched as the Time Lord apparently started the process of regeneration - but did not complete it. Tennant will appear in a Christmas special, titled The Next Doctor, before filming four more specials in January. "They'll be the four last stories that I do," he said. In a sign of his popularity, he was voted best drama performer in a public vote at the National Television Awards. He has been named most popular actor at the same ceremony for the past two years. That prize has been discontinued this year. An average of 8.1 million people a week watched the latest series - the fourth since it made a comeback in 2005 - in its Saturday evening slot on BBC One. 'Spectacular' exit Russell T Davies, executive producer, said: "I've been lucky and honoured to work with David over the past few years - and it's not over yet, the Tenth Doctor still has five spectacular hours left! "After which, I might drop an anvil on his head. Or maybe a piano. A radioactive piano. But we're planning the most enormous and spectacular ending, so keep watching." A fifth series of the show is scheduled for 2010. Tennant replaced Christopher Eccleston, who resurrected the show after a 16-year break. Tennant made his name in TV dramas such as Blackpool and Casanova. He started his career in theatre and in recent months has returned to the stage with well-received performances in Hamlet and Love's Labour's Lost for the Royal Shakespeare Company. In December last year, Tennant denied rumours that he was planning to quit after Catherine Tate - his new companion in the Tardis - told the Jonathan Ross radio show she thought the next series of Doctor Who would be Tennant's last. He said at the time: "Catherine Tate stitched me up good and proper. She goes on Jonathan Ross and makes up a load of old nonsense."

Prince Charles exterminates Dr Who cameo after refusing offer to appear on hit show By Daniel Bates, Daily Mail 13th October 2008 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1077018/Prince-Charles-exterminates-Dr-Who-cameo-refusing-offer-appear-hit-show.html Perhaps he was worried his acting would look wooden alongside a Dalek. But last night it emerged that Prince Charles has turned down an invitation to appear on Dr Who. The show's writer and executive producer Russell T Davies wrote to Clarence House asking if Charles would like to make a cameo appearance in the hit BBC drama.

Ringo Interviewed by Ben Harper Watch it here: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=28882398 As Ben Harper says in this exclusive MySpace Artist on Artist interview, rock legend Ringo Starr needs no introduction. The former Beatle met with the soulful singer on a rainy Los Angeles day to exchange gifts (Harper gave Starr a vintage snare drum), debunk urban legends (Starr recalled The Beatles' first meeting with Elvis), and simply share their love of great music and their desire to keep performing forever. "As long as I can hold two bits of wood, I can play." - Ringo Starr

Peter Moffatt - 1923 -2007 Veteran Doctor Who director passes away 02 November 2007 http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/news/cult/news/drwho/2007/11/02/50416.shtml It's with great sadness that we have to announce that Classic Series director Peter Moffatt died on 21 October 2007. Peter directed six stories in total for the series, from 1980's State of Decay to 1985's The Two Doctors. Possibly his finest achievement was 1983's anniversary epic The Five Doctors. Since then, Peter was a regular contributor to the extras for the Classic Series DVD releases. As well as his work on Doctor Who, Moffatt worked on many other high-profile series during his distinguished career. These included All Creatures Great and Small, Juliet Bravo and Within These Walls.

Ringo Starr - "Hey! Baby", 1976 Ringo Starr - "Hey! Baby", 1976 from his album "Ringo's Rotogravure".
Clip with Ringo in black and white tuxedo dancing on stairway with lots of woman which reminds me of a clip he did a decade before called "Your Mother Should Know" from MMT in 1967. His buzzcut in this clip makes him appear very much as he does today with the beard and shades. -

"It Don't Come Easy" Two different clips of "It Don't Come Easy" 1. Live from "The Concert for Bangladesh".
2. The original video/promotional film of "It Don't Come Easy" This clip in the way it's laid out reminds me "Ticket to Ride". Where you see clips of Ringo on the piano and on a snowmobile, seems to mimmick when Ringo and the other Beatles are on skis, toboggan, and singing around a piano. -
