Doctor Who 

Same as Dr. Who

The Doctor is a Time Lord, an extraterrestrial from the planet Gallifrey, who travels in a time machine called the TARDIS.

Sometimes he is accompanied by companions who have chosen to travel with him for a variety of reasons.

Although he physically resembles a human, as a Time Lord his physiology is different. Once a Time Lord suffers a mortal injury, illness, or old age, he uses the ability to regenerate.

Doctor Who 

A traveller who's the last of a noble race known as Time Lords. Sometimes he has companions, but they never stay along forever. They age and eventually die, and he has to move on.

He's the most fantastically good man throughout all of time and space, and yet he gets so little.

At the end of the day, he's just an oft lonely man who travels around the universe in a little blue box. And that's what makes him so brilliant.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the Doctor."
"The Doctor? Doctor who?"

doctor who 

Basically only the most amazing TV show in all of existence. Stars brilliant people such as Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Billie Piper, Catherine Tate, Freema Agyeman, Karen Gillan, Arthur Darvill, Alex Kingston, etc.
So what the heck even is this show about?
You've probably heard that it's a show for nerds. THIS IS A LIE. Mostly. BUT WHO CARES? Nerdiness is great. Own those duct taped glasses! Rock those Lord of the Ring posters! Flash those Harry Potter books for the world to see!
Ahem. Anyways.
This show follows the adventures of the marvelous Doctor as he traverses all of time and space defending the Earth from aliens - although he himself is one - and other disasters - a surprising number of which occur in Cardiff.
People may tell you to skip nine. DO NOT LISTEN. SKIPPING NINE IS A LARGE MISTAKE, ONE THAT WILL RESULT IN TEARS, BLOOD, PAIN, AND PROBABLE DEATH.
All in all, watch this show. If you don't, you'll be the one missing out!
1: hey man, did you catch the doctor who episode last night?
2: no way bro, doctor who is for losers
1: *smashes 2 over the head with a large rusty frying pan while screaming DIE repeatedly*

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
