It's Worzel Gummidge actually.

 Quite right.

I also watched the Peter Davison serial 'Frontios' this week. Some good costumes, Davison is great as usual and it's got some nice bleak Sci-Fi themes running through it but overall it was a bit meh. It looked very set bound and the acting was of a hugely variable quality. It was nice to see George from 'Drop the dead Donkey' (Jeff Rawle) as yet another leader out of his depth... only this time he's running a planet not a newspaper.

Worth the watch for the comical bit where Turlough is threatning armed guards with a hat-stand which they think is a fearsome timelord weapon :-D

and I got a little thrill at the very end when they get pulled into the time corridor that leads to the superior 'Resurrection of the Daleks' (Which I watched a thousand times on my home taped VHS as a kid). Now I know how they got there!
