11th Doctor Casting announcment tommorow

Yeah, £6 is very optimistic especially for a 19 year old. The minimum wage for 18-21 year olds is £4.77 an hour, and it's not especially likely she'd be getting much above it, if anything.
 
actually ive Fenricks (or whatever it was called) is anything like John Lewis than she would be paid more than the average shop worker, but then I dont recall her wearing a smart John Lewis type suit.
 
Sci you've out-nerded everyone here!

What, I didn't already do that by trying to calculate Rose Tyler's tax liability before meeting the Doctor? :guffaw::lol::rommie:

Fixed. :D

It's possible but not very likely considering her age (among other things).

The overarching point is that describing Rose and Jackie as "poor" is by no means a stretch. Rose had a shitty job and Jackie was probably on benefits. Yes, that's preferable to being caught in Ethiopian famine if people want to be fucking po-faced and tight arsed about it, but they're by no means "well off".

Sorry wamdue, that's not all directed at you.

I do agree with you.
 
Slightly off topic.

Aussies: the Xmas Special is now being advertised on the ABC, as "coming soon".

Thought you'd like to know.
