Just got back from a few days in Wales and just spotted this post. Re Dr Who. I
downloaded and reposted a few old episodes for someone who couldn't get them
several years ago. Someone had the bright idea to post EVERY available episode.
3 of us got together and I downloaded and reposted a third of what was
available. I ended up with ALL the available episodes.
I didn't start out to be "geeky" but seems I've ended up that way :-)
RIB.
