Terry Pratchett Talks About Doctor Who
Terry Pratchett talks a little trash about Doctor Who: “The unexpected, unadvertised solution which kisses it all better is known as a deus ex machina – literally, a god from the machine. And a god from the machine is what the Doctor now is… And yet, I will watch again next week because it is pure professionally-written entertainment[.]” (via SFSignal)
