Tom Baker was born in Liverpool and IMHO the best Dr WhoOriginally posted by Doggy Styles View PostI hated Ecclestone. Dr Who should never be a sneering bolshy northerner (that's not to say all northerners are sneering and bolshy)The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

I saw Tom once drinking whisky in the Nags Head in Manchester city centre in the 90's.
Myself and Mr P were awestruck - especially as Mr P is the biggest DW fan on the planet.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

I'm not too keen on the estuary English he employs though, makes him sound really thick sometimesThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
