Publicity Shots from Hell No.26

Generally not being one to revel in other peoples' misfortunes, I shamefully confess to having always been disproportionately amused by Tom Baker getting half his face ripped off by Paul Seed's dog in a Soho pub. (Or was it the oft-mentioned BBC bar?).

Exactly who coined the euphemism "teasing a dog with a sausage" has been forgotten long ago (by myself anyway, but it was probably J. Jeremy Bentham or Peter Haining), and the phrase itself still conjures up marvellous yet inappropriate images.


And I still think it's a shame that the bright blue elastaplast wasn't written into series continuity...
