I know you have all been waiting for me, on my travels through the
rec.arts.drwho archives, to come across the first post by "our" very own
David Yadallee. Well here it is .... from 01/05/1991

Quote
Hello again from Edmonton Alberta. This is Dave Yadallee I now hand you
over to Sean Samson, Secretary of the local Doctor Who Chapter.

We are starting a petition to the BBC concerning the current state of
their science fiction programme, Doctor Who. Over the past year and a
half, the BBC has continually stagnated in its promise to offer a new
series of stories. Because of this long-drawn-out hiatus, coupled with
the BBC's policy of not revealing the reasons for the delay in an
announcement, we feel fans of the programme need to show their support
by asking that the BBC come to a resolution immediately. Hopefully, this
will provoke a positive response from the Corporation.

Sure, it starts off with "Hello again ....", implying there had been
others before hand, but they skipped my attention ..... possibly because
HE wasn't calling himself "The Doctor" yet!!
* Hew effective his campaign must have been!! ...... " NOT* "!!

I dunno, Doctor Who did came back in 1996... so it might have
been a slow process, but how do we know that Dave's petitions to
the BBC didn't work? After all, the TVM was filmed in Canada!

I'm sure everyone knew that, even you... well, at the time.

28 years later is another matter though!
