Doctor Who, or Doctor WTF? as it should probably be called, is no stranger to these pages. With their black Scottish Doctor of ambiguous sexuality played by Ncuti Gadwa, they have already played the woke card at least once. I say ‘at least once’, as I hear they are at it again. And, like all
I was recently in Berlin and no visit is complete without a tour taking in the Berlin Wall, erected in 1961 by Soviet controlled communist East Germany.
