Prince Charles and Queen Elisabeth II leave the royal visit With the Doctor Who Team. :P
why doesn't the Guide mention them? - Oh, it's not very accurate.
Oh? - I'm researching the new edition.

Does anyone have any contacts in the Lucasfilm/Disney CGI department?


Trust me... if you think the BBC is protective of their 'Who' material, and CBS/Paramount is protective of its 'Trek' franchise (and have seen how J.K. Rowling sued a Russian author and publisher for putting out a book even remotely similar to 'Harry Potter' - and won), then you'll realize you don't want to get mixed up with Lucasfilm or Disney. They make everyone else look like amateurs! (The only suit Lucas ever lost was against the original 1978 'Battlestar Galactica' - which had more similarities to 'Star Wars' than that Russian book had to 'Harry Potter'. Everything else Lucasfilm or Disney as gotten hold of became "theirs" and is so far untouchable.)

Let's leave them out of this.

This image is described as Clapham Junction, I have checked the data base but there is no Clapham Junction box.
There are public lavatories in the image but when viewing OS map PCB not shown next to them.

Sorry scruffy, not unknown at all.

It's J13 - http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=3778.0

And it's Leyton, just south of Walthamstow, not Clapham Junction. Can't always trust postcard/tram photo sellers.

I have a better copy of this photo, I'll post it when scanned, but there's a better one already posted here: http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=3778.msg81486#msg81486

Just going through and clearing out some of my naff photos and found this one (Incidentally this isn't a Naff one..But it hasn't been posted on here before!)  ;D

J13 junction of Lea Bridge Road and Hoe Street, Leyton September 1954.

Just a coincidence but a grainy photo taken in early 1947........

You do lose points for not saying (in a John Cleese voice) "...and now for something completely different..."
