Warm in an anagram way or in a spin-off way?
(Not that I want it, but somebody's got to answer.)

Can't answer as I haven't seen it, but there have been commercials for another spin-off from DW.

That's from the Doctor Who two-parter with the Cybermen and the Daleks: "Army of Ghosts" (the specific episode this is from) and "Doomsday." It's a pseudo-EastEnders clip with Peggy in the Queen Vic. And isn't the ghost identified as Den Watts (former owner of the pub)?

That's all correct ToSeek. Was beginning to think you were on holiday or something

That's what I first thought of when I heard it, but I don't remember any scenes in a pub.

It's just one of a few things the Doctor is seeing on UK TV - ie how the 'ghosts' have become part of everyday life & culture; another one was a weather forecast for ghosts. Sorry, it was a very sneaky quote

I don't visit this thread too often (as indicated by my responding now to your post). Will get something up tomorrow.

Sorry to take so long:

Probably an easy one.

Very easy, but I still don't want it. Great quote, though.

The silence is deafening. Okay, here's a big hint: the source was nominated for a Hugo award.

Yeah, I'll take it. It's from the episode "200" of Stargate: SG-1. Specifically, the puppet sketch.

How about Sarah Jane Adventures? If so, it would be from the pilot, although I can see Clyde saying the Arts and Crafts line.

I know, there is a major fallacy in my guess. If the quotes were from the Sarah Jane Adventures, Toseek would have already answered this.

Neither of the above guesses is correct.
This was off the top of my head, so it could be easy to get right for that reason.
I'll post another quote after I get some sleep.

Completely off-topic, but whoa! Roy Batty is still around on the forum?
Cool to see you I thought all the old forum people had long since left. (I haven't been around since before the move myself...)
