[edit] Dead Ringers/Doctor Who
Hey, CzechOut. I was going to make some niggling fixes to the Dead Ringers section of Doctor Who spoofs, but I see you've got the "inuse" sign up. I just wanted to mention (in case I forgot later) that the other driving force behind the Doctor Who mentions on Dead Ringers is writer Nev Fountain, who's written a couple of Big Finishes (as well as being the script editor for Death Comes to Time!). He's probably a bigger fan even than Culshaw.
Also, we should probably mention that in the radio show, it wasn't just Culshaw-as-the-Fourth-Doctor calling Doctor Who celebrities; he also made everyday-type calls (booking a taxi or a hotel room, or calling a DIY shop to warn them that they had all the makings of a Dalek in the shop).
Finally, don't forget to use UK spellings for "programme" and "humour", since it's a UK subject! :) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:10, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
- Not a problem! I think that Khaosworks and I were drawn to the article because you were editing it, and we didn't realise that you weren't finished until you put the "inusefor" tag up. Hope you don't feel we were jumping on you! :) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:17, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

- No special understanding required. As for spelling, I added the UK spellings to my spellchecker years back, so it doesn't trip me up. On the other hand, sometimes I have to check the dictionary (online or dead-tree) to remind myself which way a certain word is spelled on whatever side of the Atlantic I'm writing about! —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:27, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Lady Serena
I do apologise if my actions seem high handed - I admit I'm not as diplomatic or as easy to get along with as people like Josiah. I assure you that I'm not trying to put you down, personally, but am simply trying to improve the edits and/or placing them where they should be. If it helps at all, if you want to revert my changes to the article until more people weigh in, I won't object. As I said, it's all in the history, and can all be changed back. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 23:21, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
- No problem. It's all good, as they say. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 02:21, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great Going!
Hey CzechOut, I must say, great going on the Strange World (TV series) article.. I think the programme does sound interesting, and I'll help you edit the article as well, if that's okay :) .. Have a nice day/night! :P Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 04:29, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- By the way, do you know if this programme's on DVD? I could not find it... Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 04:39, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was just wiki-ing around a few days ago and found it.. Grr, I wish it was on DVD.. And, yes, I do know you did not create the page, I was just remarking on the great work you've done with that page :) .. However, at least, the programme's producers decided to quickly film a finale before it was cancelled :) .. Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 03:42, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
