Finished "Hello, World!", now reading this.

Publisher's blurb:

"For more than a decade, John Nathan-Turner, or 'JN-T' as he was often known, was in charge of every major artistic and practical decision affecting Doctor Who, the world’s longest-running science fiction programme.

"Richard Marson brings his dramatic, farcical, sometimes scandalous, often moving story to life with the benefit of his own inside knowledge and the fruits of more than 100 revealing interviews with key friends and colleagues, from those John loved to those from whom he became estranged.

"The author has also had access to all of Nathan-Turner’s surviving archive of paperwork and photos, many of which appear here for the very first time."

This is ace-er. Eloquent high-concept history.
Am digging NRLW Magic Round. Nothing else to report, sir/madam.

Feculent marshes

If you haven't read one of these spin-off encyclopaedias for popular manga/anime series, they are super dense and worth the money. They even contain new material.

I really like new companion Eleanor Fong (Jasmine Bayes), who is running an electronics firm in Hong Kong in the 1990s when she first meets the Eleventh Doctor.
