My Thoughts Exactly

The Mash has called it wrong a few times recently, but this is proper good. Short, sweet, to the point:

But just how does Doctor Who reflect the changing role of women then, eh? Eh?

Well, a bit like this...



I'm doing some work on the changes in perceptions of gender and sexuality since the sexual revolution and it occurred to me that something like Doctor Who is the attitudes equivalent of tree rings. If I had time, I'd have finished with a clip of The Best Assistant Evar TM (i.e. Martha). Or possibly Sally Sparrow. But I didn't so you've got The Second Best Assistant Evar TM instead, on sparkling form.
