Ngelixa uGqirha esenza ubuhlobo noMhlekazi uCharles Summer, umsebenzi waseburhulumenteni ophethe le projekthi, uDodo uhamba nonobhala kaBrett uPolly kwaye udibana noBen, umatiloshe omise elunxwemeni. I-Wotan ezimeleyo kungekudala iceba ukoyisa uluntu. UBrett kunye noogxa bakhe balaliswa ngomlingo kwaye bayalelwa ukuba bakhe iitanki zekhompyuter - oomatshini beMfazwe - kwiindawo ezicwangcisiweyo kulo lonke elaseLondon. UWotan ukwamesmerises uDodo kunye noPolly, ke kuphantsi kuGqirha, uBen, uMhlekazi uCharles - kunye noMkhosi-ukoyisa umngcipheko.
Emva kwexesha, uDodo uthatha isigqibo sokuhlala eLondon kodwa, ngelixa ebuyisela isitshixo sikaGqirha seTardis, uBen kunye noPolly batshayelwa ngexesha nakwindawo…

Ekupheleni kwesizini yesithathu, uGqirha Ngubani ekugqibeleni unxibelelana ne-Swinging 60s. Ukudubula okumangalisayo kweBloomsbury phambi kokuba kwehla kwi-Bedford Square apho ibhokisi yamapolisa isenziwa khona. Ifotwe ukusuka phezulu Centre Point, oko phantse isiphumo reverse lokuqala Tardis ukuthatha-off ngo 1963. Njengoko uGqirha ephuma, unxibe ingubo yakhe kunye umnqwazi Astrakhan ukusuka An Unearthly Child - a nudge ezifihlakeleyo mhlawumbi ukuba le yokuqala. ixesha malunga neminyaka emithathu sibone uGqirha eLondon yanamhlanje.

Ngoomatshini beMfazwe, u-Innes Lloyd kunye noGerry Davis ekugqibeleni baye babhukuqa bekhululekile kwimibhalo eshiyekileyo kwaye bafaka isitampu sabo. Ayingothusi nje ukubona uWilliam Hartnell ehamba ezitalatweni zekomkhulu, kodwa kwisithuba seeveki ezintathu bathathe indawo yamaqabane amabini e-humdrum ngabalinganiswa abakhazimlayo ngakumbi kwaye banika olu luhlu umda wangoku. ULloyd noDavis baye babhalisela umphathi weYunivesithi yaseLondon uGq Kit Pedler ukuba alole amabali ngezinto ezixhalabisayo zesayensi.
I-Post Office Tower eyayintsha ngoko yayiyeyona ndawo ilungileyo, nokuba 'ikhompyutha ephucukileyo' iWotan (ebizwa ngokuba yi-Germanic 'V') ngoku ifana nentlantsi yeekhreyithi. Endaweni yoko ngokumangalisayo, uWotan unyanzelisa ukuba 'uGqirha ofunekayo' - isinyanzelo esiphindwa nguBrett - ukwaphula omnye wolu thotho' lwemithetho yekhadinali. Kwiminyaka kamva, umbhali u-Ian Stuart Black wathi wayekholelwa ukuba eli ligama lokwenyani likaGqirha kwaye akukho mntu wayekhe wabuza ngalo.
Uninzi lwencoko yabaNtsundu ayicacanga. 'Izulu elihle! Kuyayothusa,' utsho uMhlekazi uCharles. Kwaye ngelixa ooMatshini beMfazwe beyintsha ephucukileyo evela kwiqela loyilo-ngokungathi bayahambelana - ukwenza iyelenqe ngoomatshini. Indawo yokugcina impahla kaWotan ibekwe kufutshane nomnyango weklabhu yasebusuku yase-Inferno, kwaye ukubulawa kwabantu ngentsimbi yesi-3 ekuseni kugunyazisa isihloko esikhulu kwiphephandaba lakusasa-kanye nefoto efakiweyo! Kwaye ukuba ukwimo elungileyo, ukusebenza nzima kwabantu abahlaselwe ingqondo kwisiqendu sesibini kuyahlekisa.
Yhoo ndini Dodo! Inkedama ebalekile kwiiveki nje ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo, ngoku sele ikhulile ngokwaneleyo ukuba ingaya 'kweyona ndawo yasebusuku ishushu edolophini'. Ecaleni kukaBen kunye noPolly ukhangeleka ekhulile ngokumangalisayo, kwaye, ngelixa ephantsi kolawulo lukaWotan, ufana ngokumangalisayo ne-villain yaseBond uRosa Klebb. Ngaphandle komboniso wokugqibela owenziwe ngokunyanisekileyo apho uGqirha emyekisa ingqondo, ukunyamalala kukaDodo kuthotho lwesiqendu sesibini kumele kube yeyona nto imbi kakhulu yokuphuma kulo naliphi na iqabane.
U-Innes Lloyd wayila abafikayo uPolly noBen ukuba babe ziindidi zale mihla eziphawuleka ngakumbi (i-splash kaJulie Christie kunye no-Adam Faith), kodwa ezo zibonelela umahluko wokukhanya kunye nomthunzi. U-Anneke Wills uquka intombazana yase-Chelsea eqaqambileyo ehonjiswe ngefashoni yaseKing's Road, ngelixa uMichael Craze enika umsebenzi oncomekayo njengomatiloshe we-Cockney ('Le ntaka isindise ubomi bam, yabona?') kwikepusi yakhe ye-HMS Teazer.
Banika uthotho unyuso olufunekayo kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo akuncedi nto ukuba bobabini abadlali bahle. I-Craze mhlawumbi yinkwenkwezi yomboniso. Kunyaka ophelileyo, uWills wandixelela ngokuhlala emthanda owayesakuba ngugxa wakhe. 'Njengabantu abaninzi abanetalente emangalisayo, akazange azalisekise amandla akhe okwenene.' (UMichael Craze usweleke ngo-1998; abantu abaneendlebe ezibukhali basenokuba baliva igama lakhe lihlonitshwa kwimizobo yaseBritani encinci.)
Iintliziyo zethu zicula xa uBen noPolly bengena ngaphakathi kwibhokisi yamapolisa ekupheleni kwebali. Njengoko i-Tardis iphela, abantu ababini abadlulayo bajika iintloko zabo kwisandi esingaqhelekanga, bezibuza ukuba baphoswe yintoni. Ngo-1986, xa iziqendu ezisandula ukufunyanwa zaboniswa kwiNational Film Theatre, le shot yokwahlukana yabangela intsini nentswahla yezandla. Kwaye, kum, ishwankathela ibali. Siyazi ukuba sibhekisa kwicala elililo kodwa siyaqonda ukuba siphoswe yinto enkulu.

Xa uphoswa njengoPolly: Into yayikukuba ndandifumana umsebenzi omninzi. Ngoku ndimdala kakhulu ndingatsho, kodwa bendithandwa yiBBC. Ndandiyincasa ye60s kwaye ndandiyazi ukuba ndihamba ngento ethile ndiza kufumana inxalenye. Ndiye ndazulazula ndaya kwiBBC, kwaye [uGqirha Ongumvelisi] uInnes Lloyd, wayendithanda nje. Ngoko ndandiqinisekile ukuba ndiza kuyifumana le nxalenye. Xa iarhente yam yandifowunela, ndavuya kakhulu. Ndehla ndinyuka esitratweni ndixelela wonke umntu. (Ethetha no-RT, Matshi 2012)
