Name one character from any fandom I know and I will give you three facts about them from my personal canon.

Fandoms: Harry Potter, Doctor Who (though I reserve the right to do someone else here; I don't know canon well enough for Doctors 5-8 to be confident of being able to do their companions): I'd also be keen to have a crack at: Star Treks TOS and DS9, Dalziel and Pascoe (book canon only, obviously), Life on Mars, Patrick O'Brian, Swallows and Amazons, Narnia, and John Buchan's Richard Hannay-verse.

ETA: and the Wimsey-verse, of course!

I came to Jo free of fandom preconceptions, which was lucky for me. She's certainly not dim! (She's clumsy, but that's something else entirely.)

It struck me that Cliff and co's idealism is very practical, for all the hippyish trappings: after all, he's talking about finding a fungus which will revolutionise the world's food supply! I don't see him working with industry to get rich, but because it's the only way he can see to change things - which doesn't mean that he might not get sucked in deeper than he meant to...

Thinking about it, the fantastic way in which corporate greed is presented in The Green Death enables one to accept this; after all, most businesses are not run by Wagner-humming supercomputers, at least as far as I know, nor dump waste that cause maggots to grow to giant size. Seeing off Global Chemicals should be an excellent preparation for maintaining one's ethical position while working with other businesses.

We hope. Although at least the BOSS had decent musical taste...
