Litefoot: There you are, Inspector, one death certificate.

Quick: What does that say? Never can read your writing.

Litefoot: It says "cause of death: unknown". My invoice will be in the post.

Quick: "Cause of death: unknown"? I could have told you that!

Litefoot: Yes, but you didn't go to medical school.

Flufftober Day 29: Tea.

"The old team, eh?" "Litefoot, Jago — and Leela!" "Taking tea, before we save the world!"

It is long past time I drew something for Jago & Litefoot, so here it is! I love all the episodes with Leela; she and the boys and Ellie make such a great team. And I'm really happy with how everybody turned out; I think it's not bad for a first time!

I listened to some of Jago & Litefoot series 12 today. Some good vampire-based villainy and some creepy magical paintings, all found in the seedier corners of Victorian London. Much as I love the connection to Doctor Who (the characters first appeared in the Doctor Who story “The Talons of Wang Chiang” with Tom Baker), I honestly listen to them because Christopher Benjamin and the late Trevor Baxter are one of the most delightful theatrical double-acts I’ve ever heard. I’ve been listening to them sparingly because there are only a small number left to hear for the first time.

[circular-time]

With Trevor Baxter’s passing, I heartily recommend listening to this lovely little clip, the trailer for his recent Short Trip, “The Jago & Litefoot Revival.”

It was released this past March, and it’s probably about the last thing he ever recorded. I think it’ll make you smile. (Or, possibly, cry.)

[Some context is needed here: this is not the series of Jago & Litefoot to start with.  Not because the stories aren’t good [they are] but because this is a massive format breaker to the rest of the line as a whole.  The change in format requires a lot of setup and only lasts for this one series.

If you haven’t been scared off, here is that context (I’ll try to keep it as spoiler free as possible):

Henry Gordon Jago and Professor George Litefoot are residents of London, England in the year 1893 [Henry a theater owner, George a forensic pathologist for the police].  In the classic Doctor Who story The Talons Of Weng-Chiang, they helped the fourth Doctor and Leela defeat a war criminal from the 51st century, Magnus Greel, who had traveled back to 1893 London to escape punishment.  Bidding the Doctor and Leela farewell at the end of the story, Jago & Litefoot believed that marked the end of their experiences with the weird and unusual.

The universe had other ideas.  After getting mixed up in weird events several more times, the two men decided to take up [as a side profession] investigating the weird events and unusual occurrences that popped up around London.

At the end of series two, Leela [now working for the Time Lords] returned to 1893 London on a mission for the Time Lords.  She reunited with Jago & Litefoot and, in series three, the trio dealt with a series of unusual occurrences around London which were all related to a central dilemma.  Once that dilemma was resolved, Leela bid Jago & Litefoot farewell as she believed her mission for the Time Lords had been resolved and she would now be returning to Gallifrey.

She was wrong.  As it turned out, there was another evil force at work in London nearly simultaneously and that was what Leela had been sent to deal with.  The trio then set to work battling this evil force and began crossing paths with a strange individual who turned out to be the Sixth Doctor in disguise.  Once the Doctor revealed himself to the trio, the now foursome vanquished the evil force.  Leela then returned to Gallifrey and the Doctor, grateful for Jago & Litefoot’s assistance, offered them the chance to travel with him.

They accepted and served as the Sixth Doctor’s companions for two journeys: one into the future on the planet Venus and one into the past at what would become the “lost” English colony of Roanoke.  After this second adventure, Jago & Litefoot decided that life onboard the TARDIS was not for them and asked the Doctor to return them home.

Which he did, dropping them off in the Red Tavern [their local watering hole] [and dismissing their comments about the Tavern looking different as being due to them arriving in the middle of the night].  After watching the Doctor depart, Jago & Litefoot discuss returning to their lives when Jago catches glimpse of a newspaper...and realizes they’re going to have quite a bit of explaining to do as the current date is eight months later than when they left.

Litefoot takes a closer look at the paper and realizes things are even worse than Jago thought.  They left in 1893...but the paper shows the current date as 1968.  They’re not out eight months, they’re out seventy five years.

And so begins series five.  :-) ]

Was anyone going to tell me, the Gay Litefoot person, that. (takes a deep breath as if about to recite something complex) Helen Sinclair, Eighth Doctor Historical Companion, had a gay brother who was imprisoned for Crimes Of Homosexuality and him and his partner ended up being zapped by a weeping angel even further back in time and got "taken in" (unspecified?) by professor george litefoot. and its partially based on a guy trevor baxter knew who did indeed get in prison for 10 years for writing a love letter for another man. or was I supposed to find this out on tardis wiki after finding something about it on ao3 looking at tagging conventions.

[thebraxiatelcollection]

In the latest Doctor Who magazine, there is absolutely a wonderful tribute to the late Trevour Baxter, our beloved Professor George Litefoot and at the end of the interview, they were talking about his writing career and playwrights and before his death, he was working on a post-apocalyptic set in a nursing home.

I would have absolutely loved to have read that. It sounded like such a wonderful idea.

[jossujb]

Am I the only one who find it hilarious as all fuck, that Professor Litefoot and Ellie Higson have the exact same dress size xD So much so, that Litefoot can borrow his night gown to her without adjustments xDD

I dunno, for some reason that’s just super amusing to me. And the fact that he does borrow it, meaning that he kept it after all the shenanigans.

Then again tho, Litefoot is a bit of a hoarder, it comes up every now and then, that he keep keepsakes for their adventures, and sometimes not even stuff that’s reasonable to keep around. I am still ever so often reminded that in he very early series it’s off hand mentioned that he hoards clothes from the corpses O___o 

Like, um, Litefoot, George, honey... what the fuck
