Doctor Who and Michael Grade ...

Don't know if anyone posted this allready but ......

From the BBC website (
http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/news/drwho/2005/06/21/20120.shtml
) an email to Director General Mark Thompson from Michael Grade : "This is
not easy to write - as you will readily understand. But here goes -
congratulations to all involved in Dr Who: to whoever commissioned it, those
who executed it, the writers, the cast, the publicity folk that promoted it,
the schedulers and of course the late Sydney Newman who invented the whole
thing. I truly enjoyed it and watched it every week with my six and half
year old son who is now a fan. A classy, popular triumph for people of all
ages and all backgrounds - real value for money for our licence fee payers.
PS never dreamed I would ever write this. I must be going soft!"


I had to smile ....
