Behind the scenes
The Doctor Who franchise has a number of connections to Python, most notably in Douglas Adams, a contributor and occasional bit player in the original series who wrote for and served as script editor for the series in the late 1970s, and John Cleese who had a cameo in DW: City of Death.
