Buffy, Dollhouse, Alias, Nikita, Haywire, Salt, the Underworld, Alien and Resident Evil franchises - there's been a fair few actiony TV and films with female leads. Not as many as men, no, but far more than with ethnic minorities or gay characters in the lead.

And I bet you can remember what Ripley says to the Queen.

That one has potential

Quote: Jennie @ July 8 2013, 10:20 PM BST I agree. But the word has negative connotations - like rampant armpit hair and man hating.

Although there isn't anything wrong with armpit hair, if that's your bag.

I appear to have hijacked the Doctor Who thread. I apologise

I'd prefer they kept it under wraps until we saw Matt smith regenerate into him. Although I suppose that would be virtually impossible to keep secret in this day and age.

I can barely wait. Smith didn't last long.

What if it's someone really awful?
Oh, I can't take the tension.

Lot of chat about Peter Capaldi so its not him. Probably someone from Hollyoaks I've never heard of.
