I always thought that Orbital's track "Doctor ?" should have been the theme for the nuWho reboot.

After all, it's the best Doctor Who theme cover ever, and it's a wonderful crowd pleaser at the end of a set. And hey, they're the Hartnoll brothers...

It seems that they've used this year's Glastonbury to make my point for me (with a little help from Matt Smith in big boots pretending to press the buttons and dance). Gotta love the lasers giving that Tom Baker-era vibe, too...

Enjoy. I know I did.

We're all guilty.

Sure, it's a sin of omission, but it's a sin all the same...

We buy technology without thinking about where it's from or what it contains, not realising that our desire for the latest shiny fuels wars and conflicts the world over.

From the original YouTube link:
Hello, I'm a Mac, and I'm helping fuel the war in the Congo -- the deadliest war in the world. So are PCs, cell phones, digital cameras and other electronics. That's what Apple's famous ads don't tell you. So actor/activist Brooke Smith and cinematographer Steven Lubensky teamed up with actors Joshua Malina and John Lehr to create a version that sets the record straight.
