A Review by Stuart Gutteridge 1/11/02

"There`s nothing more alarming than coming home and finding a Yeti on your loo in Tooting Bec..."
This is possibly the most visual account of the life and career of Jon Pertwee you are ever likely to see. It is comprehensive and covers everything from his theatre, radio, film and TV career. Each are given a select amount of screen time, with more often than not, anecdotes and voices which sound all too familiar. The most time is spent on Doctor Who and while he doesn`t go into particular detail over any individual stories, the interview does generalise over his era and his attitude towards fandom, recording schedules and various monsters from the show. The tape is rounded off with Jon slipping into Worzel Gummidge mode, which proves to be the most entertaining segment. As tributes go, you couldn`t really ask for more.
