But what is the purpose of the logos if not to convey each Doctor, their personalities, and their era? While UNIT may reflect Three's era, although only to an extent, Bessie covers all three topics: it shows his personality, it was something that his incarnation cared dearly about, and it was the centre of his life exiled on Earth, aka. the first half, and the most remembered part, of the Third Doctor's era. The UNIT logo in no way describes Three - to absolutely zero extent - particularly as that wasn't the life he wished to lead.

Now how does the stick of celery represent Five's era? His personality? No, the celery on its own means nothing - the fact that it was on his clothing showed his personality, which affected the atmosphere of the show greatly during his era. Other options, if you don't like what I did, might be cricket or his half-moon glasses.

First off, thank you.

Second, I would agree that Cricket represents 5's era much more than Celery does. It's much more appropriet and much better represents him.
