No but really, Tom has the best stories ever [x]
It’s so tragic that Tom Baker isn’t 41 and the Doctor now… Imagine his behavior coupled with the media of today. That shit would be so entertaining.
”In entertainment news: Current Doctor Who incarnation Tom Baker arrived back in London this Friday so pissed he couldn’t locate his own flat (true story). An arrest was made but waved of as soon as authorities realized they had been escorting the Doctor to their car (true story). On Monday morning Tom Baker arrived on the set of Doctor Who completely sober and professional after having had sex with two different women on Saturday, one of which was caught by the paparazzi wearing his famous costume, and a twelve hour stint at the Colony Room where Francis Bacon had sex with a sailor and Jeffrey Bernard broke his arm while performing an ungodly act which we have opted not to disclose out of respect for our readers’ mental well-being. Tom Baker’s agent has remained silent on the matter while some BBC colleagues have voiced their worries concerning the actor’s lifestyle.”
Whovians everywhere: ‘Aaaand? At least he didn’t try to kill anyone with garden tools.’

The totally unexpected thing about Dr Who was that a children’s hero proved so fascinating to women - especially those whose tastes were, well, unusual. On our tours around the country promoting the series, I kept getting pulled by keen female fantasists.
As a younger man I had kept strict vows of self-denial and celibacy. Now, I had never been so sought after.
One young university don persuaded me to show her my Dr Who costume - and put it on herself. She looked terrific as she threw herself wantonly on the wide Holiday Inn bed and growled: ‘Come on Doctor, let’s travel through space.’
She really did say that. I nearly laughed in her face. But then, we were not in our right minds at the time and we had been drinking champagne. I managed to travel as far as the bed. As we grappled like demented stoats, her wearing my gear, I kept thinking I was making love to myself. At least she didn’t want to whip me, as some Who groupies did. - Tom Baker
