Re: Doctor Who (yarr, there be spoilers here!)

This year's Christmas special had a little too much cheese for my taste.

However, I watched it with my parents, and my mom loved it. Enough that she asked, "Are there more of these?" when it was over. I think I'll start her off slow with last year's Christmas special.

I can do that. Do you have a .psd or other working file of some sort? That'll make it easier for me to fit it to each of the themes. Just put it in Dropbox or Ge.tt or something similar and PM me a link.
