With those sideburns and that five o'clock shadow? All
kinds of rugged.
Number Five is magnificent, though - you've got to admire someone who carries around his own leafy green vegies.
I hope by 'dainty' you didn't mean 'effeminate', gwenevyn. I believe he has Sophia Myles as a girlfriend.
As for Peter Davison having celery on his lapel, Davison always wanted an explanation why. And he only got it, as did viewers, in his last story,
The Caves of Androzani.
Quote:
Peri: Doctor, why do you wear a stick of celery in your lapel?
The Doctor: Does it offend you?
Peri: No, just curious.
The Doctor: Safety precaution. I'm allergic to certain gases in the praxis range of the spectrum.
Peri: Well, how does the celery help?
The Doctor: If the gas is present, the celery turns purple.
Peri: And then what do you do?"
The Doctor: I eat the celery. If nothing else, I'm sure it's good for my teeth.
He also, later on in the story, comments to Sharaz Jek that celery is a powerful restorative for the Time Lords, but only becauyse of their powerful olfactory system. Celery revived Peri from unconsciousness for a time (caused by a disease they were suffering at the time, spectrox toxaemia), but she only lasted a few seconds before falling unconscious again.
