For my fellow Whovians, if you’re trying to watch the special, re-edited version of #DoctorWho and The Sea Devils this morning, it looks like you have to search for it on iPlayer. I typed in “The Sea Devils” on the Search page. I hope you enjoy. 🐟

Something really rather wonderful. From "A Celebration of Christmas", broadcast late at night on Christmas Eve, 1984 - Jeremy Brett, David Burke and Rosalie Williams mingle with the Christmas revellers on Baker Street, singing carols and playing with the children. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvZ6...

not the top-voted reply, but this is a hilarious way to troll white people
atchafalaya 12h ago A guy I knew told me about a Native American guy he grew up around in Arizona. Guy worked for his dad's construction company. The guy could tell the time to within a minute by looking at the sun. He'd take off his hard hat, hold it up to the sun squint at it a little, stick his foot out and note the angle of the shadow, and announce the time, always within a minute Years later they realized he had a watch in his hardhat

Don't let the story of Nigel Farage's overt racism go away

www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
However, Nick Hearn, a banker who described himself as “a conservative with a small C”, told the Guardian he had regularly seen Ettedgui being abused by the now Reform leader, and he called on Farage to “come clean”. Far from being “banter”, as Farage has previously described some of his remarks, Hearn called it “personal [and] vindictive”. Hearn is the eighth pupil to offer corroboration of Ettedgui’s claims. He said: “[Farage] was consistent and he was persistent. Peter and I used to have lunch together in the sort of cloisters, a thoroughfare between the main buildings. There were people going backwards and forwards all the time, and I witnessed on multiple occasions sort of little snide comments and personal, vindictive, racist comments. “He had a reputation in school for being a racist. I think he should come clean about his inappropriate behaviour as a young man and apologise. “People will make up their own opinion, of course, but I just think that it wasn’t idle kids’ banter. It was targeted and highly racist.” Mark Bridges, who was in Farage’s year, said he also remembered Farage as “a racist bully”. He said: “I remember Peter Ettedgui, and I remember him being tormented” and targeted by Farage. The Guardian has previously reported on the claims of Andy Field, an NHS doctor, who said he recalled Farage burning a school roll in a year in which there were more Patels than Smiths. Richard Flowers came forward to say he also recalled Farage’s response to the number of boys named Patel being higher than Smiths. He said: “I remember him coming up to us holding the yearbook, which was like a pamphlet, and holding it open and sort of stabbing his finger at the name, saying ‘look, look, look, the most common name in this school has always been Smith. And now it’s Patel. It’s Patel,’ sort of thing, and sort of stabbing his finger at it.” The Guardian has obtained a copy of the school roll for 1980, which shows that there were 12 Smiths and 13 Patels. A further former pupil, who was in Farage’s year, claimed that while in the final year when Farage was aged 17 or 18 he remembered Farage would make gas hissing noises at a Jewish boy, who was not Ettedgui. He said: “He would make these gas hissing noises. He had this fascination with Hitler and the whole kind of Third Reich thing. And he had this fascination with basically gassing Jews. And he, as I say, whenever this lad went in to the class, he would make these hissing noises.”

I appreciate the Borthwick Institute's second choice of place access point for the Terrance Dicks archive - probably the first such catalogue entry of its kind.
This is a list of access points, from the Borthwick Institute catalogue, for the Terrance Dicks archive. The place access points are 'London, England' and 'Gallifrey, Constellation of Kasterberous, 10-0-11-00:02'.
