November 23 - Doctor Who Censored Willie's Espresso

 Ooooo-weee-ooooh.  Woosh woosh...

If you're a geek, you know that sound and start running to find a Police Box.  The first time it got to appear was on this day in 1963 with William Hartnell as the first Doctor in the episode "An Unearthly Child".


Man, what a ride that show has been over the years.

Another wild ride, in a similarly shaped device was when Charlie won the Chocolate Factory and the elevator shot around in Willie Wonka's factory.

The book was written by Roald Dahl, who also wrote other kids books like James and the Giant Peach.  He passed away today in 1990 (aged 74).


Some interesting stories for sure, and with all the requests lately to remove books, that would be against John Milton's wishes of no censorship.  His Aeropagitica was released on this day in 1644.


We should all just chill and relax with a nice cuppa... personally, I like a good espresso.

In the US it's National Espresso Day.
