[...or I'll kill you with this deadly jelly baby!]
Last night, I was by the TV, and "Remington Steele" was on.  It had a dog
barking, and I thought:  "dog...TB was in the episode as a dognapper...
Maybe this is it!"  So I sat down, and sure enough, "teeth & curls" appeared
on the tube.  I said, "That's him!!"  He played Anatol Blaylock, a former
Interpol agent who went berserk after being humiliated because he could
not catch "The Fox", a former catburglar.  I only noticed one Whoism:
he widened his eyes at Mildred, Steele's secretary, who had been taken
hostage.
BTW, did anyone catch the part where Steele said that the name of the
guy they were looking for was John Smith? (Laura Holt:  "Probably an alias.")
significance:  What alias did Pertwee use while stuck on earth?  
What's next for our beloved Tom? (at least for American TV [yuk].)
