The Seventh Doctor reading The Doctor's Dilemma. (TV: Dragonfire [+]Loading...["Dragonfire (TV story)"])
The Doctor's Dilemma was a book written by George Bernard Shaw and published by Penguin Books.
The Doctor added the book to his collection at least by his seventh incarnation, reading through it while he and Mel were seated at a table in Anderson's ice cream parlour in Iceworld. (TV: Dragonfire)
Trix once woke up while the TARDIS was in flight and caught the Eighth Doctor reading it. When called on it, the Doctor then launched into a brief account of how he'd bet Shaw at a party hosted by Oscar Wilde. (PROSE: The Gallifrey Chronicles)
