It really shows that some MP's care about the important things. If I could, I'd vote for each and every one...
MP's send open letter to BBC Chairman candidate.
A cross party group of MP's have written to Michael Grade to say "hands off Doctor Who". They are requesting a pledge from him not to interfere in the new series if he is appointed to the post of Chairman of the BBC.
The group, which includes Conservative Shadow Education Secretary Tim Collins and Labour's Stephen Pound are concerned that if Grade becomes Chairman, he may derail the project.
Famous Who-hater Grade suspended the original series in 1985 when he was Controller of BBC1. He has since gone on record to voice his dislike for the show and science-fiction in general. Speaking on ITV's This Morning show in 1999 he said of Doctor Who, "I hated it, it was awful."
