Quick Change (comic story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Quick Change was a light, two-page comic story in Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett's The Doctor Who Fun Book. Although not a parody as such, it returned to Quinn and Howett's comedy roots, with a fun look at the matter of the Doctor's TARDIS's broken chameleon circuit.
Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
Much to Peri Brown's distress, the Sixth Doctor's hubristic attempts to repair the broken chameleon circuit of his TARDIS result in the TARDIS rapidly shifting between an improbable array of forms before settling back into a police box. She demands that the Doctor stop the experiments.

Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The improbable objects that the Doctor's TARDIS's outer plasmic shell briefly turns into include a house, Nelson's Column, a giant strawberry-like fruit, a clock, a train engine, an oversized copy of the Radio Times, a car and a Christmas tree.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The Radio Times issue does not correspond to any real issue of the magazine, instead featuring tripods on the cover in an allusion to H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds.
Continuity[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The Sixth Doctor is still attempting to repair the chameleon circuit only for the TARDIS to keep turning into equally-inappropriate shapes, something shown with the main Sixth Doctor in TV: Attack of the Cybermen [+]Loading...["Attack of the Cybermen (TV story)"].
