Who is drippier

Peter Davison as doctor who, wearing a sort of cricket outfit with a cream blazer and silly hat with a stick of celery pinned to his lapel.

Tom baker as doctor who in season 18, wearing a fully red outfit apart from white shirt with giant coat and giant scarf.

Jim points out that just when he feels a return to Gallifrey is called for, the producers seem to read his thoughts. But is John on the same time line as his colleague? Take a listen to the podcast and let us know what you think of "Arc of Infinity."

Sad news about John Woodvine
Great in many of my favourite things – Doctor Who, An American Werewolf in London, The Tripods…
Best (if obscure) performance: holding together a fascist Britain in 1987’s Knights of God until it and he fall apart. Utterly compelling.

“Victory—or death!” The Marshal declaims in front of the Eagle of Atrios (Doctor Who – The Armageddon Factor), fascist black and red uniform and symbols

John Woodvine as Mordrin, Prior and ruler of the Knights of God, fascist black and red uniform and symbols
