Said Craig Ferguson last week<\/a>:<\/p>\n

There\u0092s rivalry between the Harry Potter<\/i> fans and the Twilight<\/i> fans. And Twilight<\/i> fans think they’re much cooler than the Harry Potter<\/i> fans. And I’m like, “I dunno why… they’d all<\/i> get their ass kicked by the Doctor Who<\/i> fans.” That’s right<\/b>, I won!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Naturally, this amused me. And then, on Gallifrey Base, I saw an interesting idea<\/a> — Ferguson should have someone from the series on his show. And Alex Kingston (River Song) was suggested.<\/p>\n

Which prompted me to send a Tweet to Ferguson<\/a>: “@CraigyFerg Any chance you could book Alex Kingston on your show to talk #drwho before the season finale airs on BBC America in a few weeks?”<\/p>\n

The movement begins here<\/b>, people! Someone from Doctor Who<\/i> should do the Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson<\/a> before “The Big Bang” airs on BBC America. Why should the UK get all the Doctor Who<\/i> media love? Let’s make this happen, Who<\/i>vians!<\/p>\n

Send Ferguson<\/a> tweets, or e-mail him at the show<\/a>. Ask to see Alex Kingston on the show to talk Doctor Who<\/i> and River Song! Go out and kick some Twilight<\/i> ass! :h2g2:<\/p>\n
