It will probably cause you no surprise whatsoever (but a great deal of exasperation and despair instead) to know that I haven't got the faintest clue who over half those people are :-p

It's all right, I'm past being exasperated, you can't help it :P
Besides, to be fair, some of them are pretty obscure...

I, too, don't know some of those names! In fact, there are three I instantly recognise (and BTW yesterday I saw some photos of the Barrowman's spouse, and duuuude, we have so got to advance the cause of cloning - TWO stunningly beautiful men who aren't going to pay in to the gene pool? - noooo!), and my wetware pairs "Henshall" with "Ruthie", but I have no idea what the owner of that name has done that I'd know). The only internal reference I have for Chenoweth/Chynoweth is that the latter was the spelling for one of the old posh families in Winston Graham's Poldark novels. As for Mary Tamm (I assume!), you know I always preferred Mrs Dawkins as Romana :P

Quast? Hands?

Haha, the ones you don't know are musical theatre types... Ruthie Henshall is a big West End and Broadway star, who I have mentioned a few times lately in LJ!
Kristin Chenoweth is also a musical theatre star. Ditto Phillip Quast and Robert Hands, although you will have seen the latter briefly as Algy in The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances.
As for The Tamm, well, it isn't that I prefer her over Lalla (I love them equally), but The Ward sounds silly so she can't be called that...
It's a tricky business, this cool nickname thing...

TWO stunningly beautiful men who aren't going to pay in to the gene pool? - noooo!
I know, tragic, isn't it? The Barrowman has mentioned that, if someday he did want a natural child, he has a female friend also in musical theatre who would agree to have it with him. Our money is on the aforementioned Henshall, since they've been close friends for years.

Well, it's amazing what they can do these days with a turkey baster. "Here's one I ejaculated earlier..." :P :P :P

Actually, one of our FPC members has a non-het uncle who just fathered a child with a non-het female friend without the usual sweaty contact being involved, so there's hope :-)

Speaking of the Barrowman, I assume you know the Marsters (yep, that one works too) is going to interact with him in Torchie s2. And apparently that means actually interact. As in, there may be sweaty contact involved. Canonical sweaty contact. Dude, that would sooo be one in the eye for all the daft fangirls who try to squint into a following wind and infer sweaty contact between characters who canonically sweateth not :D

...and there's also the bit about Doctor Jones. Working in Cardiff. Colour me VERY happy.

add please
