6. The Lenny Henry Show
Speaking of governments and Doctor Who, Lenny Henry better known now for his work for Children in Need wrote a parody in which the Iron Lady, that's ex-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, became a
real Iron Lady by being transformed into a Cyberman. In the sketch, Henry, accompanied by the Fifth and Sixth Doctors companion Peri, crash landed on Earth in 2010 after the TARDISs protoanadysing discorperators short circuited the molecular quark overload, which isnt difficult to fix but is apparently very difficult to say. After trying to fix the TARDIS using the dimorphic inertia system (otherwise known as a hand crank), the Doctor and Peri venture out onto Earth to find Thatchos, the Cyberleader carrying Margaret Thatchers iconic handbag and wearing a large wig, and Dennos, who both quickly try to privatise the time travellers. The sketch was apparently well received by Doctor Who fans and was subsequently included as an extra on the video release of Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death, a two part special episode for a charity telethon in which Rowan Atkinson played the Doctor. That's a casting choice that every Doctor Who fan would have supported!
