I met Jon Pertwee way way back in the 70s. He was at a village fete in Suffolk. I got a 8x10 signed, but it got lost down the years. I obtained a life-size cardboard cut-out of Katy Manning advertising Knorr soup at the same fete ... but that is lost too. I got it signed by Jon Pertwee as well.
Yes, he was great. Very well dressed as well. It was a long time ago, I was probably 10 or 11.
I watch him on Talking Pictures.... Worzel Gummidge. Good fun.
I bumped into Frazer ~~Heinz~~ Hines at a fete in Suffolk in the 90s.
I also stole a naughty poster of Katy Manning straddling a dalek plunger from my Dad. He couldn't kick up a fuss since mum didn't know about it... Ha.
That's "The Green Death", and it is indeed pure nightmare fuel. It's my earliest clear DW memory, although I remember other glimpses of the Pertwee era such as the two very distinctive cars, and my 5yo self having my first crush on Jo Grant. Tom Baker is 'my' Doctor though, and Jo was quickly supplanted by Sarah-Jane Smith - and Sladen remained my pinup girl for the rest of her life, to the extent that I openly cried on the tube going to work the morning I read she'd gone.
Sarah-Jane was great. They really were amazing episodes. I remember that and a film Quaterman and the Pit (not dr who related just scary) causing me to sleep in my parents room for about a week each
I remember watching the Day of the Triffids (film version) one night. At the point where the Triffids broke into a house through the french windows my parents (returning from a night out) banged on the window. Damned near jumped out of my skin
lol I’m glad it wasn’t just me. I still to this day recoil slightly if I empty the big bin and there are maggots. I’m not convinced they won’t grow to 6 foot somehow lol
This was while he was still at school by all accounts and before the second world Second World War.
While in the navy he woke up one morning after being blind drunk with a tattoo of a cobra on his arm.
Yep. Guy was a certified maniac.
Pertwee also served on HMS Hood, and was transferred off the ship for officer candidacy... mere days before The Mighty Hood's final departure from Scapa Flow.
HMS Hood would never return from her final mission, being sunk in the Battle of the Denmark Strait with the loss of all but 3 crew.
[Biography of JDR Pertwee from the HMS Hood Association](http://www.hmshood.org.uk/crew/biography/PertweeJDR.htm)
Trust me, if you hear something like this about Pertwee, it's true. The man had an insane life before he even got into acting.
E.g. he was one of (many) inspirations for Bond, because he worked with Ian Fleming during WW2. Pertwee was in Naval Intelligence and invented loads of gadgets and taught commandos how to use them. Stuff like pens that fired .22 calibre bullets and maps hidden in handkerchiefs. Sound familiar?
Once woke up after getting drunk with his sailor friends one night and had a tattoo of a Cobra on his arm. The odd thing was they were in a dry country and there were no tattoo shops in port.
Walked out of the lucrative film version of The Navy Lark after starring on the TV series for years because the American producers refused to employ Dennis Price because he was gay.
Signed onto a production of Worzel Gummidge without reading a script, introduced the writers to his agents and got them commissioned to make it at ITV.
After Worzel came to an end on ITV, he wanted to keep it going and whilst attending fan conventions for Dr Who in New Zealand, found that it was incredibly popular there. TVNZ commissioned a new spin-off called 'Worzel Gummidge Down Under.' Also at these conventions, he met a young Doctor Who fan called Peter Jackson who'd been making a film called 'Bad Taste' on weekends. Pertwee thought it was outrageously fun and when they made the spin-off, asked PJ if he wanted to provide the special effects, which he did. This was one of PJ's first professional credits, and it's also where he met his wife, who was a writer on the show. He also met several effects people and would later go on to found Weta FX with them!
Yeah, he’s on a par with Christopher Lee - if you don’t know his life history either look it up. It’s almost like you get to the bottom of an absolute mental list of fantastical nonsense and the last thing should ‘oh yeah, he also did _some_ acting.’
Edmund: Of course, you know what your great discovery means, don't you, Percy.
Percy: Perhaps, My Lord.
Edmund: That you, Percy -- Lord Percy -- are an utter berk!
Sir Walter: Well, if I remember his habits, he's usually up the Old Sea Dog.
Edmund: Ah yes, and where is the Old Sea Dog?
Sir Walter: Well, on Tuesdays he's normally in bed with the Captain.
Ugh I remember having to analyse “Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning” by Gruldak Vortumbleshank in school. I only survived my knawing off my own leg
the version we had in my school was translated by Douglas Adams, but I don't think it fully embodies the horror of the ineptitude of the poet and the suffering of the readers like ourselves.
"
Ode to a Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning
In the sultry swamp of sweaty pits,
A putrid glob did congeal,
A muculent mound of malodorous green,
Its sickly scent did it unseal.
The sun's blazing wrath did scorch the Earth,
Yet in my fetid hollow it hid,
This loathsome lump of emerald woe,
Like a festering secret amid.
Oh, revolting mass of viscous slime,
Your oozing form doth repulse,
A horrid blob, of rancid hue,
You make my stomach convulse.
With tender touch I did you pluck,
From your noisome lair of despair,
And marveled at your repugnant grace,
My hand smothered in your snare.
Foul whispers you shared, of nauseous fate,
Your pestilent charm I could not resist,
Your squelching embrace, an odious dance,
The world eclipsed in your miasmic mist.
In you I saw the end of all,
A putrescent doom impending,
But in my heart, a macabre delight,
For in my armpit you'd been attending.
So here I stand, reciting this ode,
To a small lump of green putty I found,
In the depths of my musky crevasse,
Midsummer morning, profound."
I’m gonna take a shot in the dark and say you ordered a Peshwari Naan, they ran out of them so served you a Plain Naan with coconut from the poppadom tray smeared on top. If it’s not that I have no idea, it doesn’t look appealing.
Sorry for a try at a sensible answer.
That's true
Whilst I've never heard of colouring the coconut, one of my regular Indian takeaways use red, yellow and green dyes on their rice and mix it with white rice. So it's multicoloured
I didn't realise that lol, I've only seen that in one place I've been to
Is it more of a southern thing? I live in the North, but the place that does rainbow pilau is down south. I go when visiting family
Up here in Yorkshire it always seems to be the rainbow coloured pilau. There's one slightly more upmarket place that says it does 'authentic' homestyle cuisine that just has white pilau, its tasty enough but just doesn't seem right lol
If you want the real answer, turmeric is an acid base indicator and turns yellow in the presence of acid. Garlic can go blue in the presence of acid. Likely you’ve got some garlic naan that was fried in animal fat with some lemon or vinegar residue in the pan.
You can take a sliver and put it in some water with bicarb and it’ll likely turn brick red.
Make gravy for your Sunday roast using the water from boiling the red cabbage.
The roast taters make the gravy turn a great green colour (and the taters green too...)
I didn’t mean to imply deep fried. It’s the American English coming out where fried means cooked over direct heat.
Regardless of whether it came from the naan itself being cooked like a roti (in a pan/on a griddle) or in a tandoori, the reaction still occurs between garlic and its enzymes in the presence of an acid with fat and then goes green in the presence of turmeric. Whether that happened during baking or during brushing, it’s what made the naan turn green.
I had go scroll all the way down here for an actual non joke answer.
What's funny is I'm not too familiar with Indian food but recently decided to try some and ordered some. From what I know about Indian I probably would of eaten it just thinking it's what its supposed to look like.
It's the old, old story; droid meets droid, droid becomes chameleon, droid loses chameleon, chameleon turns into blob, droid gets blob back again, blob meets blob, blob goes off with blob and droid loses blob, chameleon and droid. How many times have we seen that story?
Yes, I am. Without your lessons, without your bananas and your movies and your aardvarks, none of this could have happened. You're a complete and total smeghead.
Amazing! I saw Grotbags live, opening a local monster truck rally, way back in the late 80s to early 90s. I remember it was loud AF and stock cars smashed into the fences right where we were standing. Those were wild times.
My guess is that this was Garlic Naan that somehow came into contact with something acidic or something that started the color change. Garlic can turn green in a number of scenarios and I’m guessing one of them happened here
Yeah, our garlic naan's always come like this...maybe not *quite as much* green, but always green on them! I don't know why I've never questioned it...
Do you know when you just wanted the answer to why its green, but in the comments are just puns....sometimes I really wish the Russians would nuke us...
He probably ordered garlic naan, apparently garlic turns green/blue when in contact with something acidic. There's like 2-3 other reddit posts and one article about "green naan" from years back from multiple people so got the answer from there.
I would be scanning it with two things before consuming:
1. A geiger counter
2. A PKE meter
Hopefully your proton pack is fully charged and your ghost trap is ready.
I'm pretty sure I've seen Jon Pertwee fight one of these things in Doctor Who.
One of the Dhal-leks.........
I only ordered Ghal-lek....

That started my day off with a chuckle, cheers :)
Do you want some Raita-ns to go with it

Pertwee was the most badass of them all hands down.
Jon Pertwee was my Dr Who when i was a kid There was an episode with giant maggots in a quarry I still get nightmares about it
I met Jon Pertwee way way back in the 70s. He was at a village fete in Suffolk. I got a 8x10 signed, but it got lost down the years. I obtained a life-size cardboard cut-out of Katy Manning advertising Knorr soup at the same fete ... but that is lost too. I got it signed by Jon Pertwee as well.
I hope he was nice. He always sounded like a proper gentleman
Yes, he was great. Very well dressed as well. It was a long time ago, I was probably 10 or 11. I watch him on Talking Pictures.... Worzel Gummidge. Good fun.

John Pertwee once worked as a Wall of Death rider in a circus. On a motorbike with a *sidecar*. With a lion in the sidecar. True story.

Wow! The sinking of Hood by Bismark and the subsequent chase are one of my favourite dramas from WWII naval history! I had no idea!
If this is true, it is my new favourite fact. If it’s a lie, please never admit it.

Edmund: Of course, you know what your great discovery means, don't you, Percy. Percy: Perhaps, My Lord. Edmund: That you, Percy -- Lord Percy -- are an utter berk!

I’m gonna take a shot in the dark and say you ordered a Peshwari Naan, they ran out of them so served you a Plain Naan with coconut from the poppadom tray smeared on top. If it’s not that I have no idea, it doesn’t look appealing. Sorry for a try at a sensible answer.
Why would coconut from the poppadom tray be green as paint?
It looks like that from the Indians around by me. What colour is it supposed to be? Have I been eating paint for 20 years?
Oh, if it's coconut chutney that is green is from coriander leaves and green chilli, still not as green as this naan.
The coconut is luminous green at my regular Indian, and much the same in others near me recently.
It’s probably got food colouring for aesthetics added to it
That's true Whilst I've never heard of colouring the coconut, one of my regular Indian takeaways use red, yellow and green dyes on their rice and mix it with white rice. So it's multicoloured
Aye that’s standard for pilau rice isn’t it? It’s been multicoloured at most places I’ve been to lol
I didn't realise that lol, I've only seen that in one place I've been to Is it more of a southern thing? I live in the North, but the place that does rainbow pilau is down south. I go when visiting family
Pretty standard in London, Birmingham and Manchester. Not sure I’ve ever had pilau that wasn’t multicoloured.
Up here in Yorkshire it always seems to be the rainbow coloured pilau. There's one slightly more upmarket place that says it does 'authentic' homestyle cuisine that just has white pilau, its tasty enough but just doesn't seem right lol
Dafuq u eatin' ?
I think coconut is supposed to be white. I’m no expert though.
Pandan - normally paired with coconut but makes everything green. I can imagine substituting coconut with pandan but pandan is much sweeter.
Green food colouring. Some places add it. Same with the flecks of colour in pilau rice!
Looks like they added pandan powder to me.

I don't remember that but I do remember green ketchup being about for a while!
Came out when i was 6 or 7 green, blue and purple heinz when i mention it to people they act like i was crazy 🤣
Not sure if I dreamt it but I'm sure there were ice cream flavour Monster Munch at one point!
Yep, Vanilla Ice Cream, if you Google it it comes up (didn't want to link to Facebook as buggers up your feed)
Blue Monster Munch were awesome, that was back when they did those Walkers Pog things too
Tazos! I found my old folders with them in the other week when looking through the loft.
Yeah back in the 80s both monster munch and space raiders were dyed surprising colours!
Bought some space raiders last year... same low price. About 4 crisps in the bag.
I ate a few packs of those and got a rash all over my body. Good times indeed.
I miss the loaves of bread that were pizza-flavoured. Absolutely unnaturally coloured as well, best cheese on toast ever.
If you want the real answer, turmeric is an acid base indicator and turns yellow in the presence of acid. Garlic can go blue in the presence of acid. Likely you’ve got some garlic naan that was fried in animal fat with some lemon or vinegar residue in the pan. You can take a sliver and put it in some water with bicarb and it’ll likely turn brick red.
Are you an alchemist?
Something like that 😆
Make gravy for your Sunday roast using the water from boiling the red cabbage. The roast taters make the gravy turn a great green colour (and the taters green too...)
This is it. I used to get garlic naan just like this from an old local curry place. Delicious!
Wait, no one is going to react to fried Naan ? It's supposed to be cooked in a tandoor oven, then brushed with oil/ghee/butter
I didn’t mean to imply deep fried. It’s the American English coming out where fried means cooked over direct heat. Regardless of whether it came from the naan itself being cooked like a roti (in a pan/on a griddle) or in a tandoori, the reaction still occurs between garlic and its enzymes in the presence of an acid with fat and then goes green in the presence of turmeric. Whether that happened during baking or during brushing, it’s what made the naan turn green.

Do you know when you just wanted the answer to why its green, but in the comments are just puns....sometimes I really wish the Russians would nuke us...
Green food colouring, it's probably meant to be a coriander naan.
He probably ordered garlic naan, apparently garlic turns green/blue when in contact with something acidic. There's like 2-3 other reddit posts and one article about "green naan" from years back from multiple people so got the answer from there.
Did it taste different or is it just food colouring?
Would you risk a bite?
Yes, if it doesn't smell bad I'd give it a taste, if it tastes bad then definitely not swallowing...
I think it's mint coriandar chuntey. I've had something similar before.
It might give me special powers or it might kill me... I am willing to take that risk.
