Since I've been slacking off so much lately, I'm giving you TWO sheep for the price of one. Isn't that wicked exciting?
This sheep is inspired by, dedicated to, and drawn with love for, Doctor Who and David Tennant. (And, even though there is an eleventh doctor, David Tennant will always be my Doctor <3)>
"Doctor Who is a British
science fiction television programme produced by the
BBC. The programme depicts the adventures of a mysterious, humanoid alien known as the
Doctor who
travels through time and space in his spacecraft, the
TARDIS (an
acronym for Time And Relative Dimensions In Space), which normally appears from the exterior to be a blue 1950s British
police box. With his
companions, he explores time and space, faces
a variety of foes and rights wrongs.
The programme is listed in Guinness World Records as the longest-running science fiction television show in the world, and as the "most successful" science fiction series of all time, in terms of its overall broadcast ratings, DVD and book sales, iTunes traffic and "illegal downloads." It has been recognised for its imaginative stories, creative low-budget special effects during its original run, and pioneering use of electronic music (originally produced by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop). The show is a significant part of British popular culture; in the United Kingdom and elsewhere, it has become a cult television favourite and has influenced generations of British television professionals, many of whom grew up watching the series. It has received recognition from critics and the public as one of the finest British television programmes, including the BAFTA Award for Best Drama Series in 2006, and five consecutive wins at the National Television Awards since 2005, in the Drama category.
The programme originally ran from 1963 to 1989. After an unsuccessful attempt to revive regular production with a backdoor pilot in the form of a 1996 television film, the programme was successfully relaunched in 2005, produced in-house by BBC Wales in Cardiff. The first was produced by the BBC and series two and three of the new series had some development money contributed by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), which was credited as a co-producer. Doctor Who also spawned spin-offs in multiple media, including the current television programmes Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures, the standalone K-9 and a single 1981 pilot episode of K-9 and Company.
The Doctor has been played by eleven actors. The transition from one actor to another is written into the plot of the show as regeneration, whereby the character of the Doctor takes on a new body and, to some extent, new personality. Although each portrayal is different, and on occasion the various incarnations have even encountered one another, they are all meant to be aspects of the same character. The Doctor is currently portrayed by Matt Smith, who took up the role after David Tennant's final appearance in an episode broadcast on 1 January 2010. A fifth series of the relaunched programme returned on 3 April 2010, in which the Eleventh Doctor is accompanied by Amy Pond, portrayed by Karen Gillan. On 6 October 2009, a redesigned logo was unveiled which accompanies a redesign of the iconic TARDIS." (wikipedia)
Musical Sheep is inspired by and dedicated to... well... music. We all enjoy music, whether we're playing it on an instrument, singing it loudly out of a car window or listening to it pumping out of our awesome double-bass stereo system. Whether it's country, rap, techno, rock&roll, or jazz, everyone is entitled to their own love of music.
Sorry, 'Sox fans, it's not THAT green monster. This is actually a different one... and if you don't get the reference... well... go pick up a book :)
