Whatever happened to the Willie Wonka kids?

Here ya go!

PLUS: more proof that science fiction is for idiots who think they’re intelligent:

BBC scriptwriters used “Dr. Who” to try to bring down Margaret Thatcher

The revelations appear to confirm complaints at the time that the BBC opposed the then Mrs Thatcher’s government which prompted the Tory party chairman, Norman Tebbit, to claim that the corporation was in the hands of a ‘Marxist mafia’.

But so lacklustre was the extraterrestrial satire that even those who produced it admit that it had no impact on the Conservative government and nobody at the time even ‘noticed or cared’.

Doctor Who ratings plunged from a high of 16m, when Tom Baker was the Doctor a decade earlier, to 3m and the show was taken off air twice during the late eighties.
