Spearhead in Space is really funny because Liz spends her first scenes with the Brigadier so clearly believing she's stuck playing the Scully to this man's Mulder. "Oooookay, so you're a UFO-chasing conspiracy nut who's somehow got government pull" NOPE. The Brigadier is one of the most thoroughly regular people on Earth. He just happens to have discovered that his world gets invaded by aliens sometimes.

(And really, the fact that he responded to that discovery by going through government channels and getting an official Earth-defense organization set up with U.N. backing and oversight tells you a lot.)

"Apologies, Dr. Shaw. I'm assigning YOU to the UFO nut, because my men have already shot him once today, and if I have to deal with him for much longer, I'll do the same."

Brigadier: Doctor, I’m making a birthday calendar for UNIT employees, can I have your date of birth?

Doctor: Actually Brigadier, I was created by a loom. You see, on ancient Gallifrey, the Time Lords-

Brigadier: I’ll just put you down for the first of April. Miss Grant, what’s your date of birth?

Jo: Actually Brigadier, I wasn’t born, I was knitted.

Doctor: You never told me that, Miss Grant! Is that common in this era?

Brigadier: Sergeant Benton?

Benton: Put me down for knitted as well, sir.

Brigadier: I’m trying to do something nice for once, here. Can we please be a little serious?

Doctor: I was being serious!

Brigadier: That’s even worse.

Doctor: I’m sick of this blatant discrimination. Just admit you hate Time Lords, Brigadier.

Jo: Doctor, I thought you said you hated Time Lords.

Benton: And humans.

Yates: Alright everyone, alright. Stop giving the Brigadier a hard time and answer the question.

Brigadier: Thank you. So you, Yates?

Yates: I was delivered by stork, sir.

Brigadier: Forget it, all birthday parties are cancelled.

so many modern unit employees probably look up to the doctor, like osgood and malcolm do. especially the higher ranking ones, because they've read more files. but since they've read more files they'd also know about the others, like the brigadier and sarah jane. so you've got to expect there to be a few who idolize them, instead of the doctor. just, like, imagine the retired brigadier meeting someone who likes him better than the doctor. he'd be so pleased. he finally beat the doctor.

on slow days, when the master has only tried attacking one or two times, the members of unit have to find ways to alleviate boredom. jo was the one to point out the brigadier carries an absolutely useless stick everywhere, mike was the one to suggest they steal it. so now, whenever there’s a moment of boredom, everyone tries to steal the stick. no one has succeeded.

that stick probably has some voodoo shit on it that entirely prevents it from being tampered with

Imagine a UNIT era modern day AU where the Doctor discovers Facebook:

  • He immediately sends friend requests to everyone at UNIT. The Brigadier doesn’t really understand social media (he only uses it to keep up with family stuff) but he’s very good at clicking the delete button. The Doctor is undeterred and continues to send him friend requests.
  • One day the Brigadier has to tell him exasperatedly, “Doctor, you can’t publicly list your education as ‘Time Lord Academy’.”
  • On another occasion he has to tell him to take down the picture he posted of the First Doctor that was captioned, “And here’s me in my younger days.” “I suppose this means you’ll want me remove that photograph taken during the Omega incident that said, ‘Hanging out with myself’,” the Doctor sighs.
  • The Doctor tries to sound cool on the internet but doesn’t because he keeps using memes that haven’t been invented yet. No one has any idea what he’s talking about and internet-savvy Jo is perpetually embarrassed.
  • The Master (under a paper-thin alias) stalks the Doctor’s page and likes all his posts in the hope that the Doctor will send him a friend request and he can have the satisfaction of declining it. The Doctor ignores him, but he does get a friend request from Sergeant Benton. Somehow the thought of declining that isn’t quite as satisfying.
  • “No, Doctor,” the Brigadier groans one morning when he sees his Facebook feed, “you cannot post… selfies… with a Dalek.” “Well if you don’t like mine, “ the Doctor replies, “just wait until you see Jo’s.”
