  1. Here’s my customary May the 4th Doctor Who picture.

  2. Very belatedly watching the 1990 documentary “Hyperland” about hypertext, starring Douglas Adams (who wrote it) and Tom Baker. It originally aired on the BBC just as my husband and I were starting as undergraduate students at St Andrews. youtu.be/cyAQgK7BkA8 #TV #DouglasAdams #TomBaker #DoctorWho #Hypertext #Computing #History

    The second-best Doctor Who moment ever.
    (After snogging Mary Tamm behind K9.)

  4. 21st March 1981. In the shadow of the towering radio telescope, a body lies crumpled and broken. The curly-haired man, dressed in a burgundy coat and a ridiculously long scarf, is the Doctor, and he is dying.

    “It’s the end, but the moment has been prepared for…”

    You can keep your CGI firework displays. Forty-five years on, this is still the best regeneration.

  5. 70s Doctor Who had *excellent* alien jungle sets. One of the better aspects of "Planet of Evil".

    Way better than Star Trek TOS "Planet Hell". And better than using locations, which don't look alien enough. Great stuff!

  8. Jelly Babies all round — it’s Tom Baker’s birthday! Frankly, that alone should qualify as a public holiday.

  9. J'attaque la saison 12 de Doctor Who, ère classique. Avec forcément l'introduction du 4ème Docteur, incarné par l'inénarable Tom Baker, avec son chapeau, son épais manteau et son écharpe multicolore beaucoup trop longue.

    C'est le Docteur approprié pour ce milieu des années 70, en plein boom des cheveux longs et vêtements trop larges.

    Je n'ai vu pour le moment que le tout premier épisode (Robot). Je retrouve avec joie Sarah Jane Smith qui va passer un petit bout de temps avec le 4ème Docteur.

    En tout cas, j'aime beaucoup l'énergie qu'apporte Tom Baker, qui contraste avec le flegme très britannique de Jon Pertwee. Il va en tout sens, il parle fort aussi, avec sa voix si reconnaissable. Et il a déjà fait le truc de l'index qui frotte le bout du nez (Who noze ?).

    J'ai hâte de découvrir cette nouvelle ère en tout cas. Qui devrait nous emmener dans la dernière décennie de Doctor Who, les années 80.
