So, as anyone who’s been muddling along with this blog for a while will know, I love Dr Who. And it’s taken me an age to admit it, because, let’s face it, there was a very long while when loving Dr Who was sorta like saying that you kept a comic book about farting hidden …

In Praise of Cally Rd Tube
