Except that, er, the 1996 movie is part of the canon. And the two 60s Dalek movies blatantly are not. There shouldn't even be an argument here.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I've tried not to do this, mostly because I honestly don't give a crap. But here we go: The "ALL CAPS AND QUOTATION THING"... I don't know why, but it's building in me this immense rage. I'm also confused as to it's purpose. It takes longer to type and it's not correct writing. Nothing is ever all caps except acronyms and names and characters are not put in quotes. If you want to quote "Movie Titles", "TV Show Titles", or "Episode Titles", I'm down with that, but I feel like I'm reading a Google results page.
Ok... back to my Philly Steak.
Oh yah... Doctor Who... I've been slowly making my way through the epsiode list on the BBC's site. I think I'm up to the fourth Doctor. I remember watching eps on PBS with a friend of mine when we were in junior high. I think they put a bunch of episodes together and ran, like, four hour movies every Friday night. I never could stay awake for the whole thing.

However, doesn't mean to say I'm automatically a MALE does it. How d'you know I'm not a FEMALE - Simple, YOU DON'T and, I'm not saying, either.
Wow...AND gender identity issues...

But you didn't ask for proof of your masculinity (which I'm sure is hard to find, regardless of your gender). You asked "WHO says I'm a Male!!!". And the answer is that your profile says you're male, by implying that a picture of a man is a picture of you.
By the way, I use the word "ask" loosely. If you hold down the key on your keyboard that says "Shift" on it, and then press the key with the '?' symbol on it, you can type a question mark. It is customary to type this character at the end of an interrogative sentence, in place of the period.

CORRECT- I didn't ask for proof of my gender, hence, I didn't need to use a question(???) mark. I was merely, stating that I wasn't or, might not necessarily be the gender that you assumed, OK!
I'm still not saying, either.
Also, WHY does having a photo of my favourite MALE "B7" character "AVON" have to mean I can't use it if I am a, FEMALE not, a MALE"B7" FAN??? It doesn't.
Gender has nothing to do with whose avatar you use, as far as, I'm concerned!!!

Doctor Who was never broadcast live. It was always pre-recorded. I think the closest they ever came was during one Pertwee when they were still working on the music on the morning of the day of broadcast.
During the Hartnell years recording was two months ahead of broadcast at the start of a season, falling to only three weeks or so ahead by the end of the season.
Broadcasts ran for about ten months out of twelve whilst recording was almost continuous throughout the year (with location recording taking place several weeks before studio recording, thus leading to the recording of stories and even seasons overlapping).
Season one: Nov '63 to Sept '64 (recorded Sept '63 to Aug '64) Season two: Oct '64 to Jul '65 (recorded Jun '64 to Jul '65) Season three: Sept '65 to Jul '66 (recorded Jun '65 to Jul '64)
There was no break in broadcast for Christams. One episode (part 7 of The Daleks' Master Plan) was broadcast on Christmas Day 1965 and include one scene where William Hartnell turned to the camera and wished the audience a merry christmas.

I wonder if it was referring to the fact that the show was filmed with single takes, because it was too expensive to film multiple takes of a shot and edit it in post-production.
