Doctor Who took two awards - best drama and best drama performance for Matt Smith! And Sherlock won in a new TV detective category. (BBC report here.)

ETA: This was my very first Eleven-icon, uploaded mere days after Matt's announcement (when it seemed everyone decided to dislike him on sight):



And oh, it was right! :)

Acceptanace speeches under the cut:

And - as an extra - here is the fabulous Pre-Movie Theater Introduction for The Day of the Doctor. With and without audience reaction:

Oh and this evening's winning comment was by Miss M: "Benedict Cumberbatch doesn't smile, he triangles!"

I fear I might have died. How are they so gorgeous (and sweet)?



More pictures here. Matt won 'Most Stylish Man', and Benedict Cumberbatch walked off with Best Actor.

( And here they both are! )

This is one of the most brilliant things EVER! The background: In November Matt Smith was on Craig Ferguson's show, and Craig had prepared this AWESOME dance which they then couldn't do... (For further explanation see the start of this. For the interview itself, go here.)

ANYWAY, the dance has now been leaked (would have posted this yesterday, except we were at my in-law's most of the day), and I bring it to you. Through the medium of dance and song it perfectly summarises the enduring appeal of Doctor Who and I am seriously considering having 'Intellect and romance triumph over brute force and cynicism' as my tag line! (Plus it has Matt Smith in a hipster shirt, looking about 12! ♥)

Have been listening to this BRILLIANT podcast by The Nerdist with Matt Smith, and oh, I ♥ that man to infinity! :)

Also - the_redjay! They asked your question! (Unless there's another redjay out there?) 'Twas a v. good question, and even though I'd heard about it before, he gave lots more info. Eeeee!


(I felt particularly in need of cheer since I've acquired a horrid cold... *sniffle*)
