Yay! Well done DW!!!!!! Glad my votes weren't wasted. Anything's better than voting Corrie. ;D

Yes Well Done Doctor Who. Anythings better than EE winning

[RitaLittlewood]

They also beat Corrie for Actor and Actress. It wasn't as good as the original series but that still won awards, like the BBC's own backslapping exercise in 1996 to celebrate 60 years of BBC TV and beating EE! They were expecting it to be them and the lies people told saying fans fixed it by organising multiple voting when by the time the mags came out about it the votes were closed. Great day that. I still have it on tape. Pity we never saw the EE cast's face but Peter Davison and Sylvester McCoy moaned about the Beeb not making it any more (especially Davison).

Well done Doctor Who. I am really pleased it won all it's catagories.

[RitaLittlewood]

So am I. It's amazing! Course it will probably go to RTD's head swelling his already enormous ego.

Christopher Eccleston got a few boos though didn't he.

[RitaLittlewood]

Did he really? I didn't watch.

Patsy

[sallywebster]

Think he got boos because Nigel Harman didnt win

[RitaLittlewood]

LOL!

Patsy

[sallywebster]

Those EE fans are pathetic though for booing Chris (who wasnt even there).

[RitaLittlewood]

Maybe it was DW fans booing him for using it as another notch on his career ladder.
