How can they get rid of the police box?  The new generation of kids may
not recognize the thing as a call box, but then I imagine that young
American viewers of a few years back did either, and they haven't
complained.  What with the Doctor becoming so painfully serious and
solemn these days, a TARDIS shaped like an outdated, incongruous
artifact is a badly needed touch of whimsy.  
     Yes, they can take away the sonic screwdriver, they can unravel the
scarf, but by God they should not trash the call box.  After all, what
is sacred, anyway?
