Didn't have a clue what to upload as my 300th post so I opened it out to Twitter.
I only tend to do requests if I find them worthwhile or, more importantly, FUNNY. But Twitter came up trumps with these three nuggets...
A suggestion of an annual for everyone's favourite 60s Trojan Hand Maiden came from @MarkTrevorOwen
The talented @SiHodges79 requested a sequel to the popular Typhoo Tea promotional book 'The Amazing World of Doctor Who'.
And @conradslater offered up the idea of a Doctor Who edition of TV Quick.
A handful of books came our way in the 70s and 80s purporting to be the literary selections of both Jon Pertwee and Peter Davison. Their connection to Doctor Who was tenuous to say the least and seemed to be limited to the name of the actor on the cover and spine of the book. Peter Davison did get his face on the front but they ended up using a still that made him look like a school-kid peeping through one of those 'photo-op' boards you used to find on the pier at Brighton.
There's been a suggestion that putting the faces of the current Doctor Who cast on the covers of these sort of anthologies might encourage children to read more. But since they ARE reading actual Doctor Who novels by the dozen not too mention the likes of Harry Potter, it all seemed rather redundant and was dropped.
