It’s not whether the glass is half full or half empty, it’s whose round is it, and mine’s a pint. (Note to all: Please don’t follow me with the expectation of financial help. Can’t afford it, and you might be a grifter.)

My late mum always maintained that one of Jet’s children was the spitting image of Cliff Richard. Apparently mum lived nearby them, saw them frequently.

The flip side to how bad these records are, is how good were the A&R/record pluggers to get this detritus on the show?

It occurs to me that the Doctor's polyethnic identity in recent times recontextualises Peter Davison's casting in quite an interesting way.
(For context, although you'd be unlikely to guess it by looking at him, Davison's paternal family is Guyanese. He has close relatives who are visibly Black.)

Peter Davison, a fair-skinned blond man, as the fifth Doctor, circa 1982.
