21st October, 2023: Let There Be Light!
Right …
I THINK I’m getting annoyed!
Dr Who fans in the UK will know that the BBC aren’t adding An Unearthly Child — the show’s first story — to its iPlayer catchup service.
As it’s in a rights dispute with the son of the story’s writer, Anthony Coburn.
Personally … ?
It’s you, me and the rest of the fans, suffering through this.
What doesn’t help … ?
Is the simple fact the son, Stef?
Comes across as a pretentious … idiot.
I’ve seen his profile, after all.
I’ve also seen this post:
The man describes Doctor Who fans as ‘sheeple’.
As people who behave like sheep: swallowing anything they’re told.
That tells me, one thing.
That Stef Coburn* is nothing other than utterly contemptuous of the fans: fans who are, ultimately, the source of the money he wants in compensation.
‘Idiot’ … ? Is putting it mildly.
