My Granddad meant a lot to me and he always told wonderful stories. I love old books and this is my Granddad’s own copy of H.G Wells ‘The Invisible Man’ It is a great story as anyone knows who has read it. I will always treasure this, as it was something he enjoyed.

What’s the best Christmas present?
A broken drum.
Why’s that?
You just can’t beat it.

‘The Seeds of Doom’ is one of my favourite Fourth Doctor Stories. It’s beautiful, clever and in parts incredibly uncomfortable and disturbing. I feel it drew so much from The Quatermass Experiment. Tony Beckley was brilliant as Harrison Chase and so good at being evil. John Challis so brilliant too.

I loved Penelope Lively’s novel ‘Astercote’ (1970)

The Bells of Astercote ( 1980 )was one hour television drama adapted from Penelope Lively’s ghost story. It was shown on BBC TV on 23rd December 1980.

I would love to see this adaptation again.

I don’t think many people know of ‘Goober and the Ghost Chasers’ It was similar to Scooby Doo and Goober could make himself invisible, so all you could see was his hat. I liked him as much as I liked Scooby Doo when I was little.

Richly deserved. Lost Boys and Fairies is a lovely thing. If you've not seen it, have tissues at the ready.

The colder nights are drawing in
The winter season will soon begin.
Frosty mornings and shorter days,
When Jack Frost’s winter art displays
Cosy evenings, fireside tales
Maybe we will sit there and train some snails
…If all else fails 😂

I always really miss visiting shops like ‘Past Times’ and ‘Woolworths’ They were always great places, especially at Christmas.

You know the sound the TARDIS makes? That wheezing, groaning? That sound brings hope wherever it goes.
Yes. Yes, I like to think it does.
To anyone who hears it, Doctor. Anyone. However lost. Even you.
