And yes, there are worse things happening in the world, but somewhere there's a photo of me about ten years old coming out of the Blackpool Doctor Who exhibition with a huge grin on my face and carrying a very large box of books because they had far more Doctor Who novelizations there than the one or two you could find in Canada at the time, and most of the books in the box were by Terrance Dicks. He will be missed.
So sad to hear about Terrance Dicks passing away. His Doctor Who novels were my introduction to the character when I was wee & there are still sentences from PLANET OF THE DALEKS tattooed on my brain 27 years later. He taught me the difference between courage & bravery. RIP.
