		it called and what piece of Whodom did it introduce?
			Terry Nation,
			I'm still waiting for the name of the series,

	I'm still waiting to find out the Doctor's name.  Other outstanding
	questions are:
	-	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.
