So in this interview on The Krotons DVD, Frazer Hines tells how he once snuck into the studio during the lunch hour and got inside one of the Daleks just to roll around in it and play pretend.

Then he heard somebody come in and he froze so he wouldn’t get told off, and it was two actors who leaned on the Dalek he was in and started bad-mouthing the show. (Not knowing he was in there.)

Partway through their conversation, Frazer rolled away going “I HEARD THAT. I’M TELLING.” in a Dalek voice.

I remember all the Doctor Who fanfics I used to read where Rose often got badly stereotyped as a damsel in distress whom the Doctor had to swoop in and save and smooch but the way I remember Doctor Who 90% of their relationship was the Doctor just setting Rose loose on people who had done something to offend them and sitting back giggling in the corner as she shouted

Guys I found the post.

The Claws of Axos ep.1 – The Doctor’s angry reaction to Mr. Chinn’s xenophobia 

for historical context [and the ppl who think this show was ever apolitical,] this episode aired during a time when neo nazis were rioting and assaulting people across London, and the National Front was at its peak of popularity

I’d look with rather profound disbelief at anyone who watches Jon Pertwee’s era and labels it “apolitical”.

I remember that I used to have three main categories that I ended up mentally slotting Pertwee-era stories into:

1) energy sources

2) pollution and environmentalism

3) nuclear armaggedon

Classic Who has always been something of a blunt instrument when tackling what was going on in politics at the time – whether it was the debate over Britain entering the European Union (The Curse of Peladon), or having one of the villains be a caricature of Margaret Thatcher when the show literally had an anti-Thatcher agenda in the late 80s.

yeah i mean

the show’s blatant and intentional leftist ideology was pretty clear from the outset [they blew up a thinly veiled metaphor for Fascism in the second ever episode…], but try telling that to ppl to whom Twelve is suddenly and inexplicably ‘’too political’’
