An extract from The Sunday Times Culture magazine:
"Not content with introducing the Doctor to Queen Victoria, this week Russell T Davies allows the Time Lord du jour (growing in popularity in spite of Chris Eccleston's tour de force) to hook up with Madame de Pompadour (Sophia Myles) after the court at Versailles is attacked by chilling clockwork killers. Apparently the Doctor has been haunting her dreams since chldhood - a state of affairs the ranks of newly minted David Tennant fans will understand - yet it take a broken clock to summon his help."
Ah, so true...lucky Sophia Myles.
(She's his girlfriend.)
But I do rather resent being called newly-minted...what about Casanova? Blackpool??

Yes, but how would you rephrase "newly minted"? I don't fancy being some "long-in-circulation coin"... perhaps "well-marinated"?

"Vintage"? "Collectors' item"? In book collecting terms, it could be "slightly foxed", which is frightening in its accuracy at this end.
