It’s the most appropriate day to repost this GIF I made back in 2015.

thinking about the tenderness and affection in doctor who. The way Six is constantly throwing his arm around Peri or the sheer panic when he knows that she’s in danger. How Nicola still calls Colin ‘her doctor’ on twitter. How much Four loved Sarah Jane, and how crushed Tom was when Lis left the show. Seven’s little moments of affection with Mel, and how proud he is when Ace takes matters into her own hands. Twelve going to hell and back to try and save Clara.

"Who Is The Doctor" - Mary Jo Duffy, 1980

a fascinating excerpt from an article I found in the back of Iron Legion #1, a Fourth Doctor comic book. here's the entire article:

[shakespeareismydad]

Nyssa: Adric, I don't fancy you. I'm a lesbian.

Adric: A lesbian? You like girls?

Nyssa: Well that is sort of an entry level requirement.

[shakespeareismydad]

Tegan, to Five: I don’t know how to tell you this, so I’m just going to whisper it into Adric's ear, causing him to shout it out in astonishment

Tegan: [whispers to Adric]

Adric: YOU’RE DATING NYSSA?!

this comic panel is both hilarious and portentous - it's from DWM #89 (June 1984), just a few months after Colin Baker was cast for the role, but only a year before Michael Grade (the BBC Controller) put the show on hiatus. as many may know, Michael Grade had a personal grudge against Colin Baker:

"The real reason was personal. Colin Baker had been married to the actress Liza Goddard. They had an acrimonious divorce. Grade and Goddard were old friends, and he sided with her in the divorce. They moved in together, and later became lovers. Grade was determined to "punish" Baker. Doctor Who production manager Gary Downie stated in an interview with Doctor Who Magazine;

There's a history between Michael Grade and Colin. Liza Goddard was Colin's wife. And she was Michael Grade's best friend. The divorce was acrimonious and she moved into Michael Grade's house while she was getting over the divorce. And I'll say no more. Michael Grade was determined. He did not want Colin working for the BBC."

(X) so, he wasn't necessarily threatened by the BBC producers as much as the BBC Controller, who had it out for him. 👀

11: If the multiverse theory is true, then there’s a universe where it isn’t.

River: The multiverse theory doesn’t cover paradoxical situations.

11: Except in the universe where it does.

Amy: I’m having an aneurysm.

Four: You're my best friend and I'd do anything for you

Sarah Jane: I want you to eat 3 meals a day and go to bed at a reasonable hour.

Four: Absolutely not.

Planet of Evil might not be the most memorable story but Sarah Jane was serving Looks™ during it
