On 14th January 2016, the Scottish screenwriter, television producer and journalisRobert Banks Stewart died.
Many Doctor Who fans will remember Robert fondly as the creator of the Zygons.
Edinburgh-born Robert Stewart left school at age fifteen and parlayed his skill into a series of newspaper jobs. His career was interrupted by his National Service, during which he was part of Field Marshal Montgomery's staff. Stewart also began writing plays, and worked for the BBC as a radio commentator for Scottish football matches. He finally left the newspaper industry to serve as a foreign correspondent for Illustrated magazine, prompting a move to London. Stewart was twice married and twice divorced; his first wife bore a daughter, while he had three sons with his second wife, Helen.
When his job with Illustrated came to an end in the late Fifties, Stewart joined the Rank Organisation, initially as a story editor on Interpol Calling. He was soon providing scripts for the programme as well, and he began writing prolifically on shows like Danger Man, Ghost Squad and The Saint, as well as several editions of The Edgar Wallace Mystery Theatre. Stewart's first commission for the BBC came on a 1962 episode of Dr Finlay's Casebook. It was at this stage that he adopted “Robert Banks Stewart” as his professional name, in order to distinguish him from similarly-named writers; Banks was his mother's maiden name. He was also approached to develop ideas for Doctor Who during its formative stages in 1963, though nothing came of this.
The latter part of the Sixties saw Stewart write for everything from The Avengers to Adam Adamant Lives! to Callan. He was a script editor on Armchair Theatre, and earned his first credit as a producer on Intrigue. At the end of the decade, he travelled to Australia to produce and write for Riptide, until issues with the local labour unions prompted him to return to the UK.
In the early Seventies, Stewart wrote for shows like Jason King, Arthur Of The Britons, The Legend Of Robin Hood and Sutherland's Law, while script editing Harriet's Back In Town and Van Der Valk. In the middle of the decade, he developed three serials for Doctor Who, all featuring Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor. Stewart invented the Zygons for Terror Of The Zygons- set in his native Scotland -- and then the Krynoids for The Seeds Of Doom. He had written most of the storyline for “The Foe From The Future” when Thames Television hired him to script edit Rooms and Armchair Thriller
The producer of Doctor Who during Stewart's time on the show was Philip Hinchcliffe, who subsequently moved to Target. When Hinchcliffe was preparing to leave the police drama, he suggested that Stewart take over, only for Target to be cancelled altogether. Instead, Stewart created two very popular series in a similar vein: first Shoestring, starring Trevor Eve, and then Bergerac with John Nettles. After an unhappy spell in the mid-Eighties as the executive producer of drama for London Weekend Television, Stewart returned to the BBC to produce Lovejoy and develop Call Me Mister. He rounded off the decade as the producer of Hannay and Storyboard.
The Nineties began with Stewart producing another hit, as he helped to launch Catherine Zeta-Jones' career with The Darling Buds Of May. He went on to produce another of his own creations, Moon And Son, before working on McCallum for Philip Hinchcliffe, who was now the Controller of Drama for Scottish Television. Stewart's final scriptwriting credit was for My Uncle Silas at the start of the new millennium. Although he was keen to continue working in television, Stewart was frustrated to find his age a barrier in securing work. Instead, he adapted an unsuccessful television pitch into a novel: The Hurricane's Tail was released by Kaleidoscope Publishing in 2012. Stewart followed it with his 2015 autobiography, To Put You In The Picture, from Miwk Publishing.
Robert Banks Stewart succumbed to cancer just three months later, on this day in 2016 hw was 84.

This light pink pelisse is worn on Catherine Hannay as Jane Bennet in An American in Austen (2024)
This sweet light pink pelisse, which features delicate dark pink vines running up the front, was first worn by Kate Ashfield as Mary Parker in a 2023 episode of Sanditon. The costume was so unique that it was later featured again in Hallmark’s 2024 remake of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility, this time worn by Beth Angus as Margaret Dashwood.
It’s always impressive to see how a single piece of clothing can be reused and repurposed in different productions, and this pelisse is no exception. With its soft pink hue and intricate detailing, it’s no wonder that this garment has caught the eye of costume designers and viewers alike. Whether you’re a fan of period dramas or simply appreciate beautiful fashion, this pelisse is definitely a piece to keep an eye out for – it’s sure to show up again!

Poor Jack, the wrap-up
Poor Jack seems to have the most to say about marriage, family, and fatherhood of any Marryat novel I’ve read so far. The narrator is from humble circumstances, far from Marryat’s privileged background, and he follows the general trend of being older than Marryat and thus closer to the glory days of Nelson’s Navy. Tom “Jack” Saunders is born in 1786, and while he never takes the King’s shilling, his father (also named Tom Saunders) sees considerable action, eventually losing a leg at the Battle of the Nile in 1798.
Relatedly, I feel like a major preoccupation of Marryat fanboys and scholars is reading autobiographical content into the Captain's novels. Marryat's Victorian biographer David Hannay was one of the first to do so. Here's Hannay on gleaning evidence for Frederick Marryat's childhood from the body of his fiction:
As no detailed life of Marryat was written until long after his death, when no witnesses were left who could speak with knowledge, there is an almost absolute want of evidence as to the character and probable influence of his family life. If we are to argue from his stories, it was hardly to be called happy. These guides may not be entirely safe, and yet they afford evidence of a kind not to be lightly dismissed. A writer whose pictures of home and school life are habitually disagreeable, cannot have had many pleasant memories of his own to look back on. [...] That is not how men write when they look back kindly on their first years.
Christopher Lloyd, Oliver Warner, and Tom Pocock all make speculations about Marryat from his writing, and sometimes quote from his novels as if they were statements from Marryat about his own life. (Admittedly, some passages from Frank Mildmay in particular are undoubtedly Marryat's own experiences.)
I think that sometimes this interpretive tradition doesn't give enough credit to Marryat as a storyteller. As much as his writing was clearly influenced by his lived experiences, he was quite capable of creating pure fiction. His characters are not him, not even Frank Mildmay. That said, I'm as guilty of this as anyone, and it’s difficult for me to not see a lot of Marryat’s own views on marriage and family reflected in Poor Jack.
Poor Jack was written at a time in Marryat's life when he was legally separated (but not divorced) from his wife. Alan Buster reproduces the entire deed of separation in Captain Marryat: Sea-Officer Novelist Country Squire, written in a very legible clerk's hand (not, thank goodness, a 19th century law hand.) Dated July 4th 1839, it establishes that Frederick and Catherine Marryat are living apart, “from incompatibility of temper an absolute separation of Bed Board and cohabitation hath by mutual agreement actually taken place between the said parties.” Marryat agrees to pay his wife £500 yearly in four quarterly payments (made out to her brothers, who are also in her Majesty’s navy), additional money for the support of his children living with her, and it includes language that both Catherine and Frederick will leave each other alone.
This situation is echoed in Poor Jack, which sees Tom Saunders Sr. and his wife Araminta living separately by mutual agreement; and it’s a surprisingly functional, beneficial solution to their unhappy marriage. Louis Parascandola writes, “Although Araminta and her husband have grown to understand each other during the course of the novel, Marryat refuses to have them live happily ever after. Instead, they separate amicably, probably a surprise to his audience.” (Puzzled Which to Choose)
One scene that stands out to me is when Araminta and Tom Sr. encounter their wealthy patrons, putting on an act before Tom’s former captain Sir Hercules Hawkingtrefylyan and his wife (who is also Araminta’s former employer.) “Lady Hercules first obtained from my mother a short history of what had happened since they had parted,” Marryat writes, “And really, to hear my mother’s explanation, it would have been supposed that she and my father had always been the most loving couple in the world.” Araminta’s quick thinking also saves her husband from an awkward question about his changed appearance, and Marryat remarks, “How true it is, that married people, however much they may quarrel, like to conceal their squabbles from the world.”
(That last line carries weight with me, since there is a virtual wall of tight-lipped Victorian reticence when it comes to finding out information about Frederick Marryat’s marriage and personal life. As much as he can seem chatty and confessional in his books, Marryat knew how to play his cards close.)
Until his father returns home as a disabled pensioner Tom Saunders is essentially fatherless, and at the mercy of his abusive, vindictive mother. But his father makes every effort to make up for lost time, and Tom soon acquires a bounty of father figures in his life. His own father is there for him, his mentor and educator Peter Anderson acts as a father figure, and other old pensioners like Ben the whaler protect and nurture young Tom. When he is finally apprenticed to Philip Bramble, his new master outright states, “I like to be called father” as he vows to be “good as a father” to his charge.
Philip Bramble has his wishes solemnized when he officially becomes Tom’s father-in-law. (Even his daughter Bessie is adopted— Bramble just can’t get enough of being a dad.) This opens up an interesting window on 19th century family arrangements. Multigenerational families were the norm (often full of unmarried siblings still living at home), and Bramble has every expectation of continuing to live with Bessie and Tom. The happy couple oblige him, but in a clever arrangement that allows Bramble to live in a separate building with Tom’s natural father: literally a Dad Shack where they can entertain each other and smoke pipes without getting in the way of Tom and Bessie’s growing family. (“He will be a very good companion for Bramble, and they will get on well together.”)
The book’s finale suddenly moves to the present day: the year 1840, when Poor Jack was published. Tom Saunders is now 54 years old— Marryat not far behind him at age 48. Tom reflects on his successful marriage and life and it’s difficult to not see a bittersweet contrast with his author. Marryat’s marriage has officially disintegrated, his family has been wracked with death and loss. The fictional Tom Saunders has three adult sons with maritime careers, a loving wife, and an abiding faith that all is well.
In one sense, he still has something in common with Marryat. Both Marryat and Saunders have lived lives full of accomplishment, but as Tom remarks, “I am still considered as having been a seafaring man.”
