Are You Observant?

Are You Observant? was one of the comical "game" sections of Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett's The Doctor Who Fun Book. Its parodical intent and non-narrativity mean this material is not currently considered a valid source on this Wiki.

A mockery of usual "how many details about a given picture can you remember form a glimpse?"-type test, it presented a picture of a zoomed-out starfield and then demanded answers about what was going on at a human scale on various planets located within said starfield, as though they had been visible.

Publisher's summary

Worldbuilding

 * Jane Fonda and William Shatner are "stars".
 * The time on "the Town Hall clock" when the picture was taken was "Zero, zero, stop": this is "Snipe time".
 * Baby Ucyl wanted to watch Doctor Who on television when his TV set was smashed by a Snipe.
 * 300 Daleks are somehow hiding behind a potted plant, which constitutes them "hiding suspiciously".
 * The Mondasian cowboys descended from the Black Hills of Mondas.
