Have fun!

The questions in this quiz were originally devised by Kate Dunn, as a source of entertainment for a major who-fan friend of hers. The questions are all from the head of Kate Dunn, and so therefore, any similarity to questions asked in other people's Who Quiz's is purely unintentional. The answers have all been checked using the various Doctor Who reference books available.

All the questions are based on the original Doctor Who series, and so none of the questions refer to or account for Missing Adventures or New Adventures.
