Marcus Butler knew that, in the 1960s, his father played in a skiffle band; they usually busked on the streets, but occasionally got gigs. A bloke in a leather jacket — the Ninth Doctor — would sometimes join in with the band, playing spoons. Marcus wrote about this on the Doctor Who? website in early 2005.
