Never thought of it that way.<BR/><BR/><I>you know, I thought that it would have been worked into some sort of plot.</I><BR/>Well, there's six pages of story.

I was shocked at the people complaining about the idea, but yeah, the execution is horrible as he sits behind a desk waving a pen and being incredibly patronizing...<BR/><BR/><I>And that Jon Pertwee is also remarkably disturbing</I><BR/>I put a filter and a blur on it but... yeah.
