Now now, Mrs Whitehouse never said Dr Who was tasteless. It was perfectly fit for the Queen to watch as long as they stopped drowning the Doctor in freeze-frame at the end of the episode. Which I think they did. So there you go. Tasteful tea time TV.

She never got a chance to see the new series though, what with dying and all, and I'm pretty certain she wouldn't have been a fan.

She would've loved it. It has no drama, no suspence, and is about as scary as a wet paper bag.

She just would've complained, like many other people, about the crude single-entendre that RNT has laced the series with.
