"Sue Foreman"?

It was something that had been broadcast shortly after the story was televised - and his was just a casual mention of the Kroton emerging from its spaceship, I think - that the BBC repeated as part of some retrospective, but whether that was in the 90s or later I forget.

I have a vague memory of seeing a documentary in which Jonathan Miller, standing by a concrete zoo enclosure, unexpectedly referenced the Krotons. I wish I could remember what programme that was.

Arguably, the TARDIS was fully working ever since the Master’s repairs, except the Doctor’s mental block on time travel theory prevented him from programming it to go anywhere other than a short-range flight before it yo-yo’ed him back to the UNIT lab.

Wonderful: brash, confident and a bit silly.

Wow. The first good laugh of the day.

Fascinating.

I missed that one.

You would think, but the only BBC coverage I've heard on the radio and seen on their website about the visit is entirely positive and concentrates on the golf-related gifts.

Tom really was an insufferable idiot at times. He didn't deserve Barbara.

I haven’t seen a total eclipse since Turkey in 2006. Quite tempted to look into some sort of tour to see this next year.

I never knew there was anything so progressive as a centre for gay and transgender health care and rights in Berlin in 1933. I mean, it’s over 40 years since I was at school, but I don’t recall any such detail being mentioned (and you know how we Brits love going on about WW II).

No surprise there, sadly.
