Having dug out my 1974 VALIANT Annual to scan KELLY'S EYE for a previous post, I thought I'd see what else it contained before I tucked it away again. And you're in luck - if you happen to be a DOCTOR WHO fan, that is. What follows is a six page feature on JON PERTWEE's incarnation of the TARDIS-travelling Time Lord - so hang on to your hats - we're about to jump back forty years into the past.
Incidentally, TERRY NATION later confessed that his account of how he thought up the DALEKS' name was a 'creative fib'. Which should've been obvious right from the start, really, as no encyclopaedia covers the letters DAL to LEK - they're not even in proper alphabetical sequence. See, you learn something new on this entertaining and educational blog every day (unless you knew it already, of course).

So glad you took another look. Thanks for sharing!
A pleasure, JP. Still got at least one more story to run.
Roger Delgado has been heavily retouched, looks suspicously like they clipped some artwork from a strip, of a 16th Century Spanish nobleman perhaps, he even looks like he's wearing a ruff.
I suspect, DSE, that it was a poor photo that needed a bit of re-touching to make it clearer. Perhaps Roger wasn't wearing his syrup.
