In an effort to stave off the brain-numbing boredom (see below), I've been listening to the radio comedy "Rigor Mortis" which is set in a pathology lab and stars Peter Davison. The episode is built on the idea that people aren't dying, and so the staff are all slowly going crazy with boredom. I empathise.

Anyway, the line that has got me squeeing to new, hypersonic levels?

PETER DAVISON: "I can’t take much more of this. I am being diminished, whittled away, piece by piece. A doctor is the sum of his contributions to humanity, you know. A pathologist even more so."

There's not a giggle from the audience, so I can only assume they've never seen "The Five Doctors".

Me? I think I broke my chair...

The best bit was that he delivered it in almost exactly the same way as in TFD. Genius.

LOL! Good catch. Random as all get out, but good.
