I'm really confused now 5 minutes, more like 40. Simm having slightly more due to episode 12. now you both have confused me, and im panicking I really can't figure this out now.

Honestly, sometimes when I say something and it is disagreed with, it sounds like im being given a scathing harsh attack. When i compliment something, it's hardly noticed. Sometimes I feel like the invisible man around here, and I like to feel im safe around here. Sometimes I really can;t understand why some people act, I get confused, and it does not help me to settle.

Jacobi played Professor Yana for most of the episode, but played the Master for about five minutes after he opened the fob watch. Then he regenerated into John Simm's Master, who was seen for the further five minutes or so of the episode. That makes a fair comparison of which Master you preferred -- they each had five minutes of the episode to appear in.

And don't worry, you're not being attacked, you're not invisible and you are noticed.

I'm surprised you didn't understand that, Chris. James explained it well above -- Jacobi was only the Master for about five minutes -- the same as John Simm. Before that, he was Professor Yana.

<slaps head> I feel like the world biggest fool. Danny, im really sorry, I took what he said too literally again. Sorry, even after finishing school it's been hard, I have had to return books, had a leavers ball, was in London today and I need to go to a Uni meeting at Bath tomorrow. I understand what you both meant now. I guess i saw Derek Jacobi's performance was just so good. I really was immersed by his whole performance. John Simm's as well, I now understand what you mean.

What im going to do on Monday night is get an early sleep and a nice lie in, and get my head in gear. I don't mean to take this out on you, it;s been a hard year.

My holiday in Cyprus is coming up soon, that will help, I need to engage other ways to keep my stress free. So no more taking things out on you guys. I'm hoping the start of the Uni year might make things a bit easier going.

Thanks for the compliment Ronn i did do some poetry in GCSE

Stress relief at uni should be simple, head to the union and order up a pint.

Wise words, and so true, maybe we should give me my own drunken forum just in case

Back on topic, The Doctor said he wanted to save The Master, so maybe we will need to compare a 3rd actor in a few years.

I've been at Uni two years now, and that method's never steered me wrong
