Damn. He certainly rocked that handlebar moustache.And here:
Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner
- Thread starter Allyn Gibson
- Start date
I hadn't heard of it until now. I'll have to check it out for certain especially since it appears to be on Hulu.
The brief description on Wikipedia reminds me of Dead to Me in the sense it's a comedy thriller about two women who meet each other at crossroads in their lives but each have with secrets.

Not only did he win a Bafta and two Royal Television Society awards for it, the series is semi-improvised so was capable of holding his own against established actors and comedians.
Matthew Waterhouse was 18 when he first started. So not quite.
Deborah Watling was 19, but that's pushing it a bit.
Deborah Watling! That's who I forgot. I also looked up Maureen O'Brien, Jackie Lane, Anneke WIlls, Wendy Padbury, and Sophie Aldred, but I figured they were in their 20s (and they were).
Nineteen still counts as a teenager.

I didn't know Jeff Lynne was the Doctor.
Damn, I didn't think she was actually that young. Silly me.
The change in age is almost the same for Matthew. His first episode aired a couple of months before turning 19.
Well, no matter because Lenny Rush is considerably younger than all of them.
I wonder how many episodes he'll be in. His age and condition will likely limit how much time he can spend filming. Sure that's been taken into consideration mind.
Here's Lenny during last year's Children in Need. You might recognise the narrator. I think he did some Who once upon a time.

Going by that logic Millie is only 18 as well IIRC.
Oh dear. It's kind of a sign of the overwhelming impression Ncuti makes that I'd totally forgotten about her!
It's the Martha effect versus Rose/Donna.
Another new outfit but don't worry Millie and Bonnie were dressed the same, so looks they're going undercover.
Who was that actor from the Star Wars prequel, who had raised the caliber of tons of movies from the 1950s and onward?
Oh, wait, an actor alone doesn't mean a story can be good, or elevating it. And the prequels had a lot of big-name actors being wasted.
(which isn't to say the return of the old fan favorites didn't have classics before... just like with the original Star Wars trilogy...)
What does that have to do with anything? Starkers is just pointing out the actor is good.
I literally have no idea what you're talking about. Star Wars? 1950s?
