Dr Who: What Are You Doing Here?
27 Sep 2008: Surely the greatest labour of love to ever find its way onto YouTube. I watched for eight minutes with jaw slowly dropping lower to the floor. It takes three minutes just to get through the old black and white Doctor Who incarnations. Of course, Jon Pertwee turns it into “What the blazes are you doing here?” Watch in awestruck admiration.

It was even suggested that I make an introductory video, which I did, and here it is – yours truly talks about how to improve your business website.These ones got people talking
