Five Tom Baker Stories Every Doctor Who Fan Should Watch
I say "should", but y'know, I don't want to gatekeep or the like; you might really not like the Fourth Doctor, in which case, sure, I JUDGE you, but I don't want you to be miserable watching Fourth Doctor stories when you could be having a yayful time watching Pertwee or the Other Baker or…

Two podcasts and an article
Hello, Tuesday, a day of much mist and rain which was LOVELY...it's not quite windy enough to be a STORM but it is getting there. But, yes, things!
