Ain't databases grand?

Especially when they allow you to geek out in a big way. I was looking for info on the new Dr. Who series and ended up on gallifreyone.com. They do indeed have a FAQ on the upcoming series, but they also have a database of episodes (available at http://www.gallifreyone.com/guides.php) that you can sort through to get episode titles, plot summaries, relevent cast & crew, etc. Useful if like me you can never remember the name of particular arcs, just what characters were in them. Like "The Talons of Weng-Chiang” featuring Leela, companion par excellence and role model of my formative years. Now of course I want to watch it - guess I've got another dvd to add to my Amazon wish list.
