Bessie Doesn’t Say Very Much
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 43 minutes and 18 secondsIt’s the Doctor’s tenth birthday, but we get the presents, as we discuss non-existent Time Lord heroes, the inestimable Cheryl Hall, and large and savage reptiles in The Three Doctors, Carnival of Monsters and Frontier in Space. Thank you Miss Grant, we’ll let you know!

The Three Doctors was released as a Special Edition in 2012 — by itself in the US (Amazon US), and as part of the Revisitations 3 box set in the UK and Australia (Amazon UK).
Similarly, Carnival of Monsters was released in 2012 — by itself in the US (Amazon US), and as part of the Revisitations 2 box set in the UK and Australia (Amazon UK).
Frontier in Space was released in 2009/2010 as part of the Dalek War box set. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Three Doctors
Guy Crayford, from The Android Invasion, is famous for never looking under his eyepatch to discover that his eye isn’t actually missing. Is he as careless about his personal appearance as Omega is?
The Gell Guards look like a slightly more cuddly version of Sigmund the Sea Monster, a horrifying Saturday morning TV show from the 70s by the equally horrifying Sid and Marty Krofft.
Fans of Chris Achilleos will be appalled by the similarities between his cover for the Three Doctors novelisation and the cover of Fantastic Four issue 49.
The Fifth and the Tenth Doctor team up for the 2007 Children in Need special, Time Crash.
Carnival of Monsters
I think we’ve mentioned the Bechdel test before, as a back-of-the-envelope way of assessing the sexism of a film or TV show. Here’s an analysis of how Doctor Who has stood up to the Bechdel test over the last 50 years or so.
Fans of inexplicable time paradoxes that drive Todd crazy will enjoy the first Big Finish Paul McGann audio Storm Warning, which features the real-life doomed airship R101, and its only survivor, India Fisher’s Charley Pollard.
Frontier in Space
Fans of the Hammond Organ will enjoy the Doctor Who theme: Delaware version.

Flouncy Trouncy Bouncy Busty
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 17 minutes and 34 secondsAnd it’s time for the end of Season 9 of Doctor Who, and so Brendan, Richard and Nathan explore the weighty themes of colonialism and utter nonsense, as we discuss The Mutants and The Time Monster. Simmer down, Stu!
Buy the stories!
The Mutants was released on DVD in 2011. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Time Monster was relesed in the US in 2010 (Amazon US). In the UK and Australia, it was only released as part of the Myths and Legends Box Set, which also includes the rightfully unloved Underworld and The Horns of Nimon, which I secretly quite like. Shut up. (Amazon UK)
The Mutants
The Marshal of Solos is eerily reminiscent of everyone’s favourite wartime reactionary cartoon character, Colonel Blimp.
We haven’t mentioned this for a while, so I guess it’s time for About Time by Tat Wood. His Pertwee volume is in its second edition, with heaps more information, and, sadly, heaps less Lawrence Miles. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Fans of the glowy rainbow cave on Solos will also enjoy William Blake’s watercolours. Fans of William Blake’s watercolours will also enjoy Elizabeth Sandifer’s crazy Blakean review of The Three Doctors.
The Time Lords’ box is eerily reminiscent of Nathan and Richard’s beloved childhood toy, the wonderfully-named Tupperware Shape-O-Ball.
And, of course, the question on everyone’s lips: Why didn’t the Eagles just drop the One Ring into Mount Doom?
The Time Monster
In his conversation with Jo in episode 6, Pertwee shamelessly plagiarises the Buddha’s Flower Sermon.
Princess Peach becomes the hero in Super Princess Peach, overcoming her enemies with the power of her womanly emotions. Her tiresome habit of being kidnapped so that she can be rescued by Mario is deconstructed in Tropes vs Women in Video Games, Damsel in Distress (Part 1).
Cat People (1942) is an early horror film directed by Jacques Tourneur. You can watch the scary stalking scene mentioned by Brendan here. You can watch the entire film here, and its sequel, The Curse of the Cat People (1944), here.
Fans of the new TARDIS console room will enjoy redirecorating their houses with furtinure designs by Cappellini and Luigi Colani.
Picks of the Week!
Nathan
Sandifer’s final TARDIS Eruditorum entry on Silence in the Library takes the form of a 100,000 word history of Doctor Who. Brilliant.
Richard
The Curse of Peladon novelisation is out of print, and it’s not available as an ebook either. (And why on Earth not?) However, the audiobook is available, narrated by David Troughton. (Audible US) (Audible UK)
Brendan
Reeltime Pictures has rebranded, and it is now selling its video back catalogue as Time Travel TV. Mythmakers #73, which is a 45-minute interview with Robert Sloman can be found here.
We have a competition!

Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 17 minutes and 34 secondsAnd it’s time for the end of Season 9 of Doctor Who, and so Brendan, Richard and Nathan explore the weighty themes of colonialism and utter nonsense, as we discuss The Mutants and The Time Monster. Simmer down, Stu!
Buy the stories!
The Mutants was released on DVD in 2011. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Time Monster was relesed in the US in 2010 (Amazon US). In the UK and Australia, it was only released as part of the Myths and Legends Box Set, which also includes the rightfully unloved Underworld and The Horns of Nimon, which I secretly quite like. Shut up. (Amazon UK)
The Mutants
The Marshal of Solos is eerily reminiscent of everyone’s favourite wartime reactionary cartoon character, Colonel Blimp.
We haven’t mentioned this for a while, so I guess it’s time for About Time by Tat Wood. His Pertwee volume is in its second edition, with heaps more information, and, sadly, heaps less Lawrence Miles. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Fans of the glowy rainbow cave on Solos will also enjoy William Blake’s watercolours. Fans of William Blake’s watercolours will also enjoy Elizabeth Sandifer’s crazy Blakean review of The Three Doctors.
The Time Lords’ box is eerily reminiscent of Nathan and Richard’s beloved childhood toy, the wonderfully-named Tupperware Shape-O-Ball.
And, of course, the question on everyone’s lips: Why didn’t the Eagles just drop the One Ring into Mount Doom?
The Time Monster
In his conversation with Jo in episode 6, Pertwee shamelessly plagiarises the Buddha’s Flower Sermon.
Princess Peach becomes the hero in Super Princess Peach, overcoming her enemies with the power of her womanly emotions. Her tiresome habit of being kidnapped so that she can be rescued by Mario is deconstructed in Tropes vs Women in Video Games, Damsel in Distress (Part 1).
Cat People (1942) is an early horror film directed by Jacques Tourneur. You can watch the scary stalking scene mentioned by Brendan here. You can watch the entire film here, and its sequel, The Curse of the Cat People (1944), here.
Fans of the new TARDIS console room will enjoy redirecorating their houses with furtinure designs by Cappellini and Luigi Colani.
Picks of the Week!
Nathan
Sandifer’s final TARDIS Eruditorum entry on Silence in the Library takes the form of a 100,000 word history of Doctor Who. Brilliant.
Richard
The Curse of Peladon novelisation is out of print, and it’s not available as an ebook either. (And why on Earth not?) However, the audiobook is available, narrated by David Troughton. (Audible US) (Audible UK)
Brendan
Reeltime Pictures has rebranded, and it is now selling its video back catalogue as Time Travel TV. Mythmakers #73, which is a 45-minute interview with Robert Sloman can be found here.
We have a competition!

A Hessian Sack Full of Candy Canes
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 44 minutes and 59 secondsIt’s the start of Season 9, and so it’s time for Brendan, Richard and Nathan to grow a terrorist moustache or stick on a military-issue UNIT one and settle back with a sardonic wine and a runny brie to watch Day of the Daleks, The Curse of Peladon and The Sea Devils. Oh, Centauri, stop it!
Buy the stories!
Day of the Daleks was released in 2011 as a Special Edition DVD, with an excitingly remastered version which we discuss in the episode. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
In the UK and Australia, The Curse of Peladon was released in 2010 as part of the decreasingly impressive Peladon Tales Boxset (Amazon UK). It was released separately in the US. (Amazon US)
Again, in the UK and Australia, The Sea Devils was released in 2008 as part of the Beneath the Surface Boxset (Amazon UK). It was released separately in the US. (Amazon US)
Day of the Daleks
Once again, here is a photo of Brendan dressed as Katy Manning from Day of the Daleks.
And there’s that old Vulcan saying: Only Nixon could go to China.
Earlier this month, Australian activist group Beyond Green responded to Attorney-General George Brandis’s plan to save details about every Australian’s online activity, by suggesting that we should CC him into every email conversation we have.
(Not that) Louis Marx was responsible for a range of toy Daleks in the 1960s, some of which later found their way into the programme to represent armies of Daleks that the production could actually afford. (See, among others, Planet of the Daleks.)
Here’s Clayton Hickman’s tweet about the poor condition of the Dalek props in Day of the Daleks.
You won’t want to miss Aubrey Woods singing The Candyman Can from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971).
Brendan mentions Flight of the Darned, by farmageddon71, the person behind the 1990s special edition of The Five Doctors. No spoilers, but stop whatever you’re doing right now and watch it immediately.
Here’s Sean Pertwee dressed up as his father dressed up as the Doctor for Halloween 2014.
The Curse of Peladon
The Radio Times review of The Curse of Peladon has a lovely publicity shot of Katy Manning complete with a stray hair roller. (Katy claims that these were actually shots from rehearsals rather than specially-staged publicity shots.)
Arcturus, apparently, went on to have a prolific television career, starring as Bernard, part of Queen Asphyxia’s triple husbandoid, in Blackadder’s Christmas Carol.
I am proud to announce that I have been unable to find all of Alpha Centauri’s appearance on The Black and White Minstrel Show, although a brief clip can be seen here, as part of BabelColour’s brilliant Every Doctor Who Story video.
The Sea Devils
Here are some lovely episodes of The Clangers for you to enjoy.

The Curse of Peladon
The Radio Times review of The Curse of Peladon has a lovely publicity shot of Katy Manning complete with a stray hair roller. (Katy claims that these were actually shots from rehearsals rather than specially-staged publicity shots.)
Arcturus, apparently, went on to have a prolific television career, starring as Bernard, part of Queen Asphyxia’s triple husbandoid, in Blackadder’s Christmas Carol.
I am proud to announce that I have been unable to find all of Alpha Centauri’s appearance on The Black and White Minstrel Show, although a brief clip can be seen here, as part of BabelColour’s brilliant Every Doctor Who Story video.

Increasingly Baroque and Stupid
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 31 minutes and 35 secondsIt’s our second reboot in two years, and to celebrate Richard’s sabbatical in Cambridge, we’re joined by everyone’s favourite ham-fisted bun vendor, Todd “Josephine” Beilby. And we’re discussing the first three stories of Season 8: Terror of the Autons, The Mind of Evil and The Claws of Axos.
Buy the stories!
In England and Australia, Terror of the Autons was released on DVD as part of the Mannequin Mania box set. (Amazon UK). It was released separately in the US. (Amazon US)
Check out Jo’s facial expression on the Mind of Evil DVD cover. And Pertwee looks like he’s just realised he left the gas on. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Claws of Axos has had a Special Edition DVD release. So there’s that. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Terror of the Autons
Paul Cornell’s brutal 1993 review of Terror of the Autons from DWB can be found here.
Here’s Brendan dressed as Jo Grant from Day of the Daleks at Lords of Time 3 in December 2014.
The Mind of Evil
Sorry, Nathan, but Kate Orman doesn’t give Corporal Bell brain cancer, but she does damage her brain in a terrible car accident in the otherwise brilliant The Left-Handed Hummingbird.
David McIntee’s novel Face of the Enemy has the Master working with UNIT while the Doctor and Jo are off mucking around on Peladon. Oh, and Corporal Bell gets sacked. Here’s El Sandifer’s review.
Richard Franklin wrote a post-UNIT Mike Yates novel called The Killing Stone. You can even hear him reading it aloud, if that’s your thing. (Audible US) (Audible UK). Paul Cornell definitively outed Mike Yates in the 50th Virgin New Adventures Novel Happy Endings.
A work of fiction passes the Bechdel test if it contains a scene where two women talk to each other about something other than a man.
Fans of caseless Dalek mutants as major story villains will enjoy the Big Finish audio The Elite.
The Claws of Axos
Bill Filer looks like he’s wandered into The Claws of Axos on his way to appearing in The Champions or The Persuaders!.
Brendan mentions the episode of Black Books where Bernard and Manny drunkenly write a children’s book called The Elephant and the Balloon. You can find the entire episode on YouTube.

Increasingly Baroque and Stupid
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 31 minutes and 34 secondsIt’s our second reboot in two years, and to celebrate Richard’s sabbatical in Cambridge, we’re joined by everyone’s favourite ham-fisted bun vendor, Todd “Josephine” Beilby. And we’re discussing the first three stories of Season 8: Terror of the Autons, The Mind of Evil and The Claws of Axos.

In England and Australia, Terror of the Autons was released on DVD as part of the Mannequin Mania box set. (Amazon UK). It was released separately in the US. (Amazon US)
Check out Jo’s facial expression on the Mind of Evil DVD cover. And Pertwee looks like he’s just realised he left the gas on. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Claws of Axos has had a Special Edition DVD release. So there’s that. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Terror of the Autons
Paul Cornell’s brutal 1993 review of Terror of the Autons from DWB can be found here.
Here’s Brendan dressed as Jo Grant from Day of the Daleks at Lords of Time 3 in December 2014.
The Mind of Evil
Sorry, Nathan, but Kate Orman doesn’t give Corporal Bell brain cancer, but she does damage her brain in a terrible car accident in the otherwise brilliant The Left-Handed Hummingbird.
David McIntee’s novel Face of the Enemy has the Master working with UNIT while the Doctor and Jo are off mucking around on Peladon. Oh, and Corporal Bell gets sacked. Here’s El Sandifer’s review.
Richard Franklin wrote a post-UNIT Mike Yates novel called The Killing Stone. You can even hear him reading it aloud, if that’s your thing. (Audible US) (Audible UK). Paul Cornell definitively outed Mike Yates in the 50th Virgin New Adventures Novel Happy Endings.
A work of fiction passes the Bechdel test if it contains a scene where two women talk to each other about something other than a man.
Fans of caseless Dalek mutants as major story villains will enjoy the Big Finish audio The Elite.
The Claws of Axos
Bill Filer looks like he’s wandered into The Claws of Axos on his way to appearing in The Champions or The Persuaders!.
Brendan mentions the episode of Black Books where Bernard and Manny drunkenly write a children’s book called The Elephant and the Balloon. You can find the entire episode on YouTube.

Turducken
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 25 minutes and 40 secondsAs our flight through the first season of post–Doctor Who Doctor Who comes to a close, Brendan, Richard and Nathan discuss The Ambassadors of Death and fan-favourite Inferno. Hold on tight: there’s never been a bore like this one!
Buy the stories!
The Ambassadors of Death was released on DVD in 2012. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Inferno has had two DVD releases: the original in 2006, and a Special Edition in 2013. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
The Ambassadors…of DEATH!
We’ve mentioned The Ipcress File (1965) before as an inspiration for Doctor Who during this period. Gosh, it’s great. Have you watched it yet?
ITC Entertainment was an English production company founded by Lew Grade in 1954, famous for producing high-quality, high-budget genre television for the international market. Its most famous shows include The Champions, The Prisoner, The Persuaders!, UFO and Space: 1999.
The Scooby Doo/Doctor Who comic that Brendan mentions can be found here.
Here’s Peter Capaldi and Katy Manning larking around on the TARDIS set. And here’s Peter and Janet Fielding from Janet’s Twitter feed.
Much to Nathan’s horror, the adventures of Dr Liz Shaw continue in the BBV series P.R.O.B.E., which also stars Louise Jameson, Jon Pertwee, Peter Davison, Sylvester McCoy, Terry Molloy, Mark Gatiss and Reece Shearsmith (TV’s Patrick Troughton).
Fans of kissing Peter Davison will enjoy David Walliams and Mark Gatiss in The Kidnappers, which can be found on Disc 1 of The Beginning DVD box set.
Counter–Measures is a Big Finish spin-off series chronicling the further adventures of Group Captain Gilmore, Professor Rachel Jensen and Allison Williams from Remembrance of the Daleks.
And while we’re on the subjects of Mark Gatiss and Big Finish, Richard loves Invaders from Mars, starring Paul McGann and India Fisher.
Inferno
WTF is a Turducken?
Fans of digging crazy deep holes into the Earth’s mantle will enjoy this account of the real-world Project Mohole.
Arthur Conan Doyle’s story When the World Screamed (1928), featuring another doomed attempt to drill into the Earth’s mantle, can be read and downloaded here.
And yet another Big Finish spin-off, starring Christopher Benjamin as Henry Gordon Jago: Jago and Litefoot, soon to enter its tenth season. Great Jumping Jehoshaphat!
Picks of the Week
Brendan
Caroline John reads the Target novelisation of Doctor Who and the Cave Monsters, by Malcolm Hulke. (Audible US) (Audible UK)
Nathan
The recently reissued Target novelisation of Doctor Who and the Auton Invasion. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
And Mark Gatiss’s radio documentary From the Outside it Looked Like an Old-Fashioned Police Box, which chronicles the history and legacy of the Target novelisations.
Richard
As mentioned above, the ITC Entertainment production UFO — essential for your understanding of genre television of the early 1970s.
Brendan again
The inexplicably fabulous Japanese versions of some early Target novelisations. You can see the covers and the wacky Japanese titles on this site here.

We’ve mentioned The Ipcress File (1965) before as an inspiration for Doctor Who during this period. Gosh, it’s great. Have you watched it yet?
ITC Entertainment was an English production company founded by Lew Grade in 1954, famous for producing high-quality, high-budget genre television for the international market. Its most famous shows include The Champions, The Prisoner, The Persuaders!, UFO and Space: 1999.
The Scooby Doo/Doctor Who comic that Brendan mentions can be found here.
Here’s Peter Capaldi and Katy Manning larking around on the TARDIS set. And here’s Peter and Janet Fielding from Janet’s Twitter feed.
Much to Nathan’s horror, the adventures of Dr Liz Shaw continue in the BBV series P.R.O.B.E., which also stars Louise Jameson, Jon Pertwee, Peter Davison, Sylvester McCoy, Terry Molloy, Mark Gatiss and Reece Shearsmith (TV’s Patrick Troughton).
Fans of kissing Peter Davison will enjoy David Walliams and Mark Gatiss in The Kidnappers, which can be found on Disc 1 of The Beginning DVD box set.
Counter–Measures is a Big Finish spin-off series chronicling the further adventures of Group Captain Gilmore, Professor Rachel Jensen and Allison Williams from Remembrance of the Daleks.
And while we’re on the subjects of Mark Gatiss and Big Finish, Richard loves Invaders from Mars, starring Paul McGann and India Fisher.
Inferno
WTF is a Turducken?
Fans of digging crazy deep holes into the Earth’s mantle will enjoy this account of the real-world Project Mohole.
Arthur Conan Doyle’s story When the World Screamed (1928), featuring another doomed attempt to drill into the Earth’s mantle, can be read and downloaded here.
And yet another Big Finish spin-off, starring Christopher Benjamin as Henry Gordon Jago: Jago and Litefoot, soon to enter its tenth season. Great Jumping Jehoshaphat!

They’ve Cancelled My Show
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 21 minutes and 43 secondsWe’ve jumped a time track only to find ourselves in the 1970s, watching a strange parallel-universe version of our favourite show. Where’s the TARDIS gone? What’s with all these different colours? And, most importantly, what’s happened to the Doctor’s nose? Join us, my dear fellow, as we try to find the answers to some of these questions by watching the first two stories of Jon Pertwee’s first season, Spearhead from Space and Doctor Who and the Silurians.
Buy the stories!
From now on, not only do all the stories exist, but they’ve all been released on DVD. So this bit’s easy.
-
Spearhead from Space (Amazon US). In the UK, it can be bought as part of the Mannequin Mania box set, which includes Terror of the Autons. A must-have. (Amazon UK)
-
Spearhead from Space on Blu-ray, in stunning HD (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
-
Doctor Who and the Silurians is published as part of the Beneath the Surface box set, which includes The Sea Devils and Warriors of the Deep (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Spearhead from Space
Kim Catrall, from Sex and the City and, of course, Star Trek VI (1991), played a slightly less lethal and slightly more creepy mannequin in the film, er, Mannequin (1987).
The Avengers and Peter Wyngarde’s Jason King both have a history of strong, fabulous women, but none more strong and fabulous than Caroline John’s Liz Shaw. (Oh, okay, Emma Peel.)
Even in the early 70s, millions of deprived Britons would tune into radio comedies like Round the Horne and The Navy Lark, starring Jon Pertwee.
If you’re thrillingly open-minded, you might enjoy the idea of agalmatophilia, which is a fetish involving sexual attraction to a statue or mannequin. If not, I’m sorry I brought it up.
Terrance Dicks’s novelisation of this story, The Auton Invasion, has been recently re-released as a paperback. It’s also available on the Kindle. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Fans of the moments of gritty realism in 1970s Who might enjoy Steve McQueen in Bullitt (1968), Michael Caine in Get Carter (1971) or Dennis Waterman in The Sweeney. Fans of Pertwee hurtling down the hill in a wheelchair might enjoy the Ealing Comedies of the 1950s.
Captain Kremmen was an important part of Richard and Nathan’s childhood. You can get a taste of it here. Watch it on YouTube. You won’t regret it. (Oh, okay, you might.)
Moonboots and Dinner Suits is Jon Pertwee’s autobiography, first published in 1985. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Doctor Who and the Silurians
Derrick Sherwin and Peter Bryant had an escape plan in the form of Special Project Air. It didn’t really work out though.
Watch Jennifer Saunders as Jane Seymour in Doctor Quinn: Mad Woman.
Malcolm Hulke’s novelisation of this story, Doctor Who and the Cave-Monsters, was also recently re-released, both in paperback and for the Kindle. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK). Caroline John reads the audiobook, and does a superb impersonations of both Jon Pertwee and Fulton Mackay. (Audible US) (Audible UK)
The New Series Silurians are based very closely on the Voth from the Star Trek: Voyager episode Distant Origin, who were in turn based loosely on the Silurians from this story.
Gerry Anderson’s The Secret Service stars a marionette vicar who solves crimes. Aren’t you glad to live in a world where such things exist?
“I’m a Silurian. And I’m going for my tea break.”

They’ve Cancelled My Show
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 21 minutes and 43 secondsWe’ve jumped a time track only to find ourselves in the 1970s, watching a strange parallel-universe version of our favourite show. Where’s the TARDIS gone? What’s with all these different colours? And, most importantly, what’s happened to the Doctor’s nose? Join us, my dear fellow, as we try to find the answers to some of these questions by watching the first two stories of Jon Pertwee’s first season, Spearhead from Space and Doctor Who and the Silurians.
Buy the stories!
From now on, not only do all the stories exist, but they’ve all been released on DVD. So this bit’s easy.
-
Spearhead from Space (Amazon US). In the UK, it can be bought as part of the Mannequin Mania box set, which includes Terror of the Autons. A must-have. (Amazon UK)
-
Spearhead from Space on Blu-ray, in stunning HD (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
-
Doctor Who and the Silurians is published as part of the Beneath the Surface box set, which includes The Sea Devils and Warriors of the Deep (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Spearhead from Space
Kim Catrall, from Sex and the City and, of course, Star Trek VI (1991), played a slightly less lethal and slightly more creepy mannequin in the film, er, Mannequin (1987).
The Avengers and Peter Wyngarde’s Jason King both have a history of strong, fabulous women, but none more strong and fabulous than Caroline John’s Liz Shaw. (Oh, okay, Emma Peel.)
Even in the early 70s, millions of deprived Britons would tune into radio comedies like Round the Horne and The Navy Lark, starring Jon Pertwee.
If you’re thrillingly open-minded, you might enjoy the idea of agalmatophilia, which is a fetish involving sexual attraction to a statue or mannequin. If not, I’m sorry I brought it up.
