Saturday 21st January 2012, 2.20pm (day 149)
First day at home after 8 on the move, and so profoundly inactive (and light-free) that I was reduced to taking pictures of the DVDs I was watching.
Still, this shot is meaningful to me: like most British kids my age, I accord Tom Baker’s incarnation of the Doctor in Doctor Who near-divine status. I could claim that I was watching ‘The Deadly Assassin’ DVD today because of Joe, who does like the programme, but actually, he was out at a friend’s. I feel no shame.

You’re so right! Tom Baker is the Definitive Doctor. It’s not up for discussion. Complex and layered, and mad as a box of frogs.
