Am attempting to turn Wednesdays back into a standard WTW day, with occasional BBC Scifi stuff scattered throughout regardless of day.

Friday's is still open! Go!

Monday's was Kim Jong Il, Dictator, Puppet, Swell Guy & Space Cockroach from Team America: World Police.
Well done to John, who says that Kim Jong's PR department claims he scored thirteen holes-in-one in his first game of Golf. Truth.

Wednesday's, for now, in an attempt to do something different, will be Doctor Who's That What? Focussing on guessing / suggesting characters from The BBC's Old Man In A Box series, and various tentatively linked other shows (Hitch-Hiker's Guide, Blake's 7, Casanova... you get it).

Also, apologies for quality of scans. I'm on a new laptop, with none of my old kit. Will try and remedy this...

Last Week's was The Mighty Jagrafess & The Editor, controllers of future multi-mass-media Satellite Five. They like the cold. AND LOOK, LOOK IT'S SIMON PEGG!
Well done to Ed, who is both amused and confused by teh smae episode's head-opening interface computer bobbins.

Friday's was Magrat Garlick, Pratchett's drippy Witch and would-be Queen of Lancre from the Discworld books.
Well Done To Sal, who sent me a photo of herself dressed as Magrat from a stageplay. RELEVANCE!

Monday's was the human-host of Chaos Daemon Cherubael, attendant & weapon of Inquisitor Eisenhorn in Dan Abnett's Warhammer 40, 000 Eisenhorn novels.
Well done to Eddy, who listed Cherubael's crimes (I'm not reprinting them here, but he's a daemon) and then claimed he was still a pretty nice guy. Truth.

Last Week's was Mr. John Steed and Ms. Emma Peel, the Avengers, British Weirdness-Investigation-Agents. And enemies of Peter Wyngarde.
Well done to Joe, who points out that was The Avengers was filmed in colour before colour broadcast was properly available. BEFORE. IT'S. TIME.

Friday's was Captain Carrot Ironfounderson, Pratchett's super-heroic Ankh Morpork City-Watchman from the Discworld books. His sword is very sharp.
Well Done To Ellie, who told me all about the other Captain Carrot. And rediscovered her childhood memories of his Zoo Crew. YEAH! WIKI!

Monday's was Howling Jimmy Jefferson, the Spirit of Jazz, from the very silly Mighty Boosh.
Well done to Olwen, who claims Vince Noir used to be her favourite character until SOMEONE WHO WASN'T ME I SWEAR press-ganged her into loving Bob Fossil. I hate Whites.

Last Week's was The Meddler aka The Monk, an early adversary of The Doctor. And anachronistic trickster.
Well done to Jennifer, who not only points out that real-world-chronologically, he is the first non-Doctor (and kinda non-Susan) Time Lord we meet, but also that he's great. True fact.

Friday's was Doug Ramsey aka Cypher, teenage mutant, linguist and martyr from Marvel's X-Men. Nowadays Dan Abnett is writing him. I love this guy.
Well Done To Ed, who always liked the character but knew he was doomed to die. His personal canon incolves Cypher going back in time & fighting crime with Ada Lovelace.

Last Week's was a Tripod, from the BBC's mid 80's scifi-series. Or as Ed calls is, a backpacking guide to Southern France
Well done to Si, who was so scared of the Tripods as a kid that he had to go sofa-hiding.
In his own words "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".
