Dr Who (Rory watched over Amy Pond {closed up in the pandorica, a prison box containing the most dangerous being of the universe} for 2000 years so that no harm would come to her. The episode comes from the eleventh doctor aera. Rory appears as Roman centurion – you know, Dr Who, timey-wimey stuff.

I watched from the 9th doctor (the relaunch) until Disney started to get involved. Disney has been highly criticised for destroying the franchise but my primary reason was that it became expensive to watch in Germany. Disney has just announced withdrawing and BBC is again fully in command. Fans are rejoicing and it was probably the reason why Dr Who was on my mind when I wrote that little … something.
