I really ought to have been reading Latin, instead of writing this. Ah well…
Title:
Another Time, Another TimeCharacters: The Fifth Doctor, the Brigadier, with a certain cricketing enthusiast off-stage.
Summary:
I saw Len Hutton in his prime/ Another time, another time. What if the Doctor did take the Brigadier on a trip in the TARDIS after all?
Length: 500 words
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the unseen guest star (whose identity is left as a rather easy puzzle for the reader). The title is, of course, derived from Harold Pinter’s poem (quoted above in its entirety!), and the Doctor quotes from Francis Thomson’s “At Lords”
Warning: Contains cricket geekishness.
( For the field is full of shades as I near a shadowy coast )
