....and another "where else have I seen them" video. This time, it's the Robertson/Degas creation "Specials"* from 1991. It's even less remembered that Virtual Murder, but it even got novelisations of its episodes!!!

So the little "VM cast in Dr Who" video I shared got me thinking about other shows that numerous cast appeared in, not just one or two. So here is the (now) second in a possible irregular series of posts. This time: VM cast in The Gentle Touch.

Can anyone help me decipher this line? I'm trying to understand what the style of writing Prf. Griffiths is talking about. Sounds like "Tortu Darab" but I can't work it out.....
