Go me. Of all the times to get around to watching Life on Mars, it just had to be the day The Almost People aired, so that when I decided to sandwich Doctor Who in between the first two episodes of LoM, it was calculated to inspire maximum paranoia about how real the world around me is. We will see how bad my dreams are tonight. If any of them involve hospitals I will officially rank this above "watching Blink alone in my room in the middle of the night" on the Really Bad Ideas scale.
...I am sure all the speculation about Sam Tyler being a fobwatched Master has already been done to death, so instead I will limit myself to speculating that no such direct connection exists, but on top of everything else Sam occasionally has really bad dreams about being a mad gay villain on some rubbish sci-fi show, and every time Gene hits Sam the Master hears drumming in his head.
And now, to complete the headfuck, off to rewatch Sound of Drums.
