Geographically speaking, Wales is part of The British Isles.
As is Southern Ireland, the Isle of Man AND Jersey and Guernsey in the Channel Islands (quiz fans take note - we once won a round of drinks because we knew the River Shannon was technically in the British Isles).
After all the TV licence my parents pay (oops, no I don't specifically pay it but I do contribute and did for years) helps pay to make the show.
I
love Wales, and the Welsh. I'm proud that they are our next door neighbours and have such a strong identity. But the Doctor is British. Wales is only part of his demesne. Says this fangurl who dragged her mother around Cardiff to get photos of Torchwood filming locations. And I spent my 30th birthday in the shadow of Cader Idris in the hope of waking up as a poet.
I went to a Dracula themed pub in London that was actually quite good. But we were there on a freezing workday afternoon in February ( after having a champagne picnic on the South Bank). I think the fire of hell would have been welcome at the time. I'd love a Tardis Room.
Me in Cardiff waiting to see JB in panto.
