File under “Bears shit in the woods” – Dr Who luvvie hates the Tories.
Becoming part of the Dr Who team must be similar to joining The People’s Front of Judea:
“Can I join Dr Who?”
“No. Piss off.”
“But I hate the Tories as much as anybody.”
“Are you sure?”
“Oh, dead sure. I hate the Tories already.”
“Listen, if you wanted to join Dr Who, you’d have to really hate the Tories.”
“I do.”
“Oh yeah? How much?”
“A lot!”
(Pause) “Right. You’re in. But first, we might have another little job for you. How d’you fancy writing an episode of Basil Brush?”
