I love how many callbacks and mentions Adric has had in the last few years :)
I know the character was often polarising, but he was my point of identification as a 9 year old, newly-minted who fan back in 1981. I’m glad you’re getting props!

The past is always an alien place, as weird as any distant planet.

I wonder what the CGI generation(s), used to Tennant and Capaldi and through-scoring, make of the original series. It must seem so strange and so different. Even the institution that made it, BBC Drama, ceased to exist over thirty years ago.

It seems like a good time for a tip of the hat to Susan, the first unearthly child, from the second.

I remember William Hartnell saying in the 10th anniversary mag that though other people thought DW would fail, he knew it would work. "It'll last five years!" he'd said. And then it was ten! And now it's sixty. Who'd've thought it?
