Many of us owe our love of Doctor Who to Terrance Dicks: his books made the stories come to life & expanded our vocabulary as they did so. Writer, script editor & one of its greatest ambassadors, he enunciated the show brilliantly. A kind man. #TerranceDicks WAS Doctor Who. RIP.

What should actually be “Recommended For You” BBC iPlayer is the choice to watch the credits of a programme without having to grab my remote control as soon as the bloody thing ends. Jumping to some other random show is disrespectful to what I’m enjoying and to its makers.

So sad to hear about the death of Neil Innes. Such a kind, warm, witty man, who loved music and fooling about. I took this little film of him at Slapstick Festival in 2012, as he and Ian Lavender prepared to lead a live singalong of the Dad's Army theme tune.

Doctor Who In Memoriam 2019. I have done a video remembering those from the Doctor Who universe whose deaths were announced in 2019. I hope you like it, please RT and share of your do. tobyhadoke.com/doctor-who-in-…

Beautifully done, Toby. So much talent, so much loss.

This made me v happy last year: a random vox pop captures the fabulous character & obvious intelligence & insight of a “Woman Off The Street” who provides a glorious testament to the power of TV. Anyway, if you haven’t seen it, it might give you a smile at the start of the year.

It’s Sunday! Let’s ski.
