Craving Company
"Nearing the end of his tenth incarnation the companionless Doctor finds himself craving the company of great musicians and composers, so he pilots the Tardis to Carnergie Hall, New York City, in 1924, where George Gershwin is leaving the stage after giving his first ever rendition of his masterpiece Rhapsody In Blue. The Doctor asks Gershwin to join him as a guest in the Tardis. George agrees.
The Tardis materialises at the Woodstock Festival in 1969, where the legendary sitar player, Ravi Shankar, a huge favourite with the hippies of the day, has just finished his set. The Doctor asks Shankar to join him as a guest in the Tardis. Ravi agrees.
It's the year 2010, and the Tardis materialises outside the BBC Television Centre in London, which Andrew Lloyd Webber is leaving having just recorded an edition of Over The Rainbow. The Doctor asks Lloyd Webber to join him as a guest in the Tardis. Andrew agrees.
In what seems like less than an instant the Tardis materialises in a field late in the evening. The Doctor informs his three guests that there is a fault with the Tardis that will take him till morning to repair, and meantime they should go to the nearby farm and ask the farmer to put them up for the night.
Ravi Shankar, George Gershwin and Andrew Lloyd Webber approach the farmhouse. They knock on the door. The farmer opens the door and they explain the situation. The farmer is willing to help them, but says that he only has two spare beds and that one of them has to sleep in the barn. George and Andrew take the beds and Ravi makes his way to the barn.
Ten minutes later there is a knock on the farmhouse door. The farmer opens the door to an unhappy Ravi Shankar.
"I'm not sleeping in that barn!" says Ravi "There's a cow in the barn, and that's a sacred animal to we Hindus. I am not worthy to share a barn with a cow!"
"Have my bed, Ravi," says George Gershwin "I'll sleep in the barn." George makes his way to the barn.
Ten minutes later there is a knock on the farmhouse door. The farmer opens the door to an unhappy George Gershwin.
"I'm not sleeping in that barn!" says George "There's a pig in the barn, and that's an unclean animal to we Jews. I refuse to share a barn with an animal that is not kosher!"
"Have my bed, George," says Andrew Lloyd Webber "I am neither Hindu nor Jewish, so I'll sleep in the barn." Andrew makes his way to the barn.
Ten minutes later there is a knock on the farmhouse door. The farmer opens the door.
