Dr Who?

I was out in London with friends to see His Dark Materials at the NT (incredible) on Saturday, when whilst eating at pizza express at around 6.45 someone asked:
"Did anyone remember to record Dr Who?"
And presently the entire table (about 10) responded along the lines of "damn" and within minutes we were franticly explaining how to use the VCR/DVD to flatmates/family over mobile phones.
What an odd sight...
