I'm still waiting to find out the Doctor's name. Other outstanding

- what is Roman's full name?
- who played the longest running assistant and what was the
name of the character?
- who played the second longest running assistant and what
was the name of the character?
- What does UNIT stand for.
One person has asked if there is a machine readable index for the
shows. Does anyone know of one?
Several people asked if there was anywhere that sold Who stuff
such as buttons and tea-shirts. Does anyone know of such a place.
For further information, I'm told that some issues of "Starlog"
magazine from last year (1981) have articles about previous
incarnations of the Doctor.
Thanks for your contributions.
Mark Callow.
