The guest suite aboard the Fourth Doctor's TARDIS resembled a hotel room, save for a few bizarre details.
Description[[edit] | [edit source]]
Though the roundels on the walls remained, like most every other room on the TARDIS, this room featured a floral carpet, a dresser, a mirror and a trouser press. More unusually, it featured an ornate four-poster bed, with curtains which revealed a bunk bed, complete with an unstable wooden ladder for ascending to the top bunk.
In place of a minibar, the TARDIS guest suite featured a food machine, which served up bars which tasted of medium rare prime rib, though this might be replaced by candy floss on the next bite.
A door led into the bathroom, which featured a lavatory, mirror, towel, common toiletries, and a further door marked "BATH", which featured an Olympic-sized pool supported by small brass feet.
The bath came with a rubber duck and a bar of soap which sped along the water's surface to meet him once he dived in. There was a metal ladder and two ordinary bath taps for controlling the water. (PROSE: Shada)
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
When he first came into the TARDIS with the Fourth Doctor and Romana II, Romana invited Chris Parsons to spend the night in the guest suite. He took a small tour of the TARDIS while following her instructions, then came to the room where he'd be staying.
Chris went straight to open the curtains to his bed, then tried out the "minibar", and was both disappointed and impressed, finding it lacked instructions to ask for what he wanted. Next, he took his bath, where he "[didn't dare] take the plug out", before putting on his complimentary bathrobe and getting comfortable on the bottom bunk bed.
He fell asleep quickly, briefly noticing the lights dim as he sank into his soft pillow. He found everything about the bed remarkably inviting, once he came to lie down, and was only awoken by the sound of a telephone, which was a message from Romana in the mirror, calling him to the control room.
Chris was surprised to find his clothes had been pressed and cleaned overnight, and were waiting for him in a neat pile on the dresser. (PROSE: Shada)
