A Doctor Who pun? I'm impressed ... in an embarrassingly geeky sort of way.

Wonder if this includes a female companion or the option of hiring one. Just asking..

I would assume that the attractive companion of Dr. Who is TARDIS manager, so Dr. Who himself qualifies as an attractive companion for the manager.

So I would assume that this job is reserved for comely Australian citizens.

Mmm. Just wondering who's working with the Daleks this time. I think the Ruskies are too go-it-alone so it's probably the Chinese. Maybe the Indians?
