The glamour's the first thing that you learn when you take on the left hand path

If going through a red light, in the wrong lane, over the speed limit, and breaking a pedestrian's leg does not constitute dangerous driving, then what exactly does? Do you have to be smoking sticks of TNT while being fellated by a sabretooth tiger at the same time? Or did he maybe get off because he's a sporting celeb, and they must be excused the consequences of their congenital idiocy and aggression, just like the Victoria line's early closing is suspended when Arsehole are playing, because sport always gets special fvcking treatment?

"Russell T Davies was at a wedding recently when a guest complained about what he'd done to Doctor Who, an otherwise wholesome family drama. "She told me she was shocked because Captain Jack is bisexual and wouldn't let her children watch it," says Davies. "I had such a go at her. I said: 'You're an unfit mother. You're ignorant. Your children are cleverer than you.'" A handy reminder that, fundamentally, we should still consider the man responsible for the Slitheen and Catherine sodding Tate to be one of the good days.
(Though obviously nothing RTD writes is likely to compare to a Moffat-scripted meeting between the Fifth and Tenth Doctors, on TV November 16th. Why is the internet not more excited about this?)
