[livejournal.com profile] yuletide are brainstorming which obscure fandoms toa dd to the ginormous list this year. I can't believe it's that time again. It's always my favourite fandom challenge. Last year I wrote fic for the Reeves and Mortimer remake of Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased); I hadn't seen it since transmission but fell victim to my usual habit of 'volunteering to write all characters in any fandom where I've seen or read the source material, even once', so I rewatched it on DVD and fell utterly in love. Yeah, it's a really dodgy British sci-fi remake of an equally dodgy 60s show, but there's a reason I'm a Doctor Who fan, y'know. And to prove that Britain really does only have 10 actors, almost everyone from Doctor Who's in it. Including David Tennant. In a wedding dress.

I'm pretty sure Alexis Denisof was in an episode of R&H(D), too.

David Tennant in a wedding dress? Really? Excellent.

He was. And looking rather delicious in a tux at one point, as well ;)

Yes! AD looks very spiffy in a tux - very odd to hear him with an American accent, though.

Really. A well-tailored one, too - it actually gave stickboy a figure.

And he looks fabulous in it(really). As he does in the dead bear he's wearing at the beginning.

I'm not that sure about the bear/gorilla/whatever furry thing he's got on (It puts me in mind of Mr. Burns singing "See my vest! See my vest! It's a real gorilla chest!"

The wedding dress, scarily enough, suits him. And I *love* your icon!

Dude! You mentioned Hairspray! *grin* The world needs more well written Tracy/Link, and just more Corny/Link.

I've now seen Hairspray... an embarrassing number of times. <3 Corny. And Maybelle, too. And Tracy/Link, of course, and Penny and Seaweed... I'm going to end up just asking for anyone and everyone from Hairspray, I fear.

Hairspray rocks like a rocking thing. I actually find myself checking the musicals section in ff.net just to see if anything good is posted. I've glomped hard onto this movie :D

*scrambles to read* I *adore* Randall & Hopkirk, and blasphemously like the remake more than the original.

I've just read your fic - it's fabulous.

Thank you! I really loved writing it.

You bring us so many shiny, unjaded fandom love posts/comments over at [livejournal.com profile] who_otp and [livejournal.com profile] lifeonmartha that I had to friend you. Just so's you know who the random person is!

:D Hello!

I still wish they'd gotten David Tennant in a wedding dress and Tom Baker being an angel in the same episode.

Because then we could call it The Once and Future Doctor.
