Doctoring The Tardis

Doctor Who's recent struggle against "the Slitheens" has been wonderful satire. This alien family have taken over key figures in society, with a vile purpose.

The too skinny Prime Minister has been killed and his body rejected by a corpulent intergalactic gangster family. Like old school Levis they can shrink to fit. But that can only go so far. They find a more corpulent substitute, kill him too and make his skin the home for their top dog.

Here we have this acting prime minister (an alien) taking charge as a flying saucer clips Big Ben and ditches in the Thames. They are asking the United Nations for sanction to use nukes to destroy the threat.

There is a big lie. An alien mother ship hovers above London. They have "Massive Weapons of Destruction" - MWDs presuamably. These can be fired within 45 seconds. The UN is asked for sanction to nuke 'em. Not having permission "Hasn't stopped us in the past!" chirps Rose, played by the enchanting Billy Piper, but this time the UN agree anyway.

All the defence staffs are in on the game. This alien family is planning to turn the nukes on the neighbours and kick off Armageddon so that they can loot the earth's resources and sell radioactive england (and the rest) by the pound.

These usurpers in Number 10 are defeated by East End blitz spirit, malt vinegar, Doctor Who directing a hard working family, and conventional weapons of destruction.

New Labour, oh no, I'm sorry, the alien usurpers, are destroyed.

Bring on that hovering Dalek!
