I know about custard and fish fingers but what else does the Doctor eat? In between all that running he must need something to refuel. But, we seldom see him eat anything. I was curious about a Doctor Who cookbook when I found this one. What does he like to eat and when does he get around to actually cooking himself a dinner, or even just a light snack?

Would you eat with The Doctor?

This book has been created from the new Doctor Who series, 2005 and onwards. Chris-Rachael Oseland, the author, has spent a year watching and re-watching the Doctor Who series to pick out recipes and recipe ideas. Taking inspiration from the past shows she has given Doctor Who fans (Whovians) recipes to explore whether they are great cooks and bakers, or prefer simple fare. If you want to host a Doctor Who dinner party, take a few pages from the book (not literally, that would be dangerous – think of spacesuits and the Library!).

What would you offer the Doctor if he showed up on your doorstep one day? Only a small chance it would actually be your doorstep of course, It could be the shopping mall, just as much as any other place in time and space.

Which companions would you hope to drop in with him? Donna Noble is my first pick. Donna is my favourite companion plus, she isn’t likely to pass up a good conversation and a great coffee. Maybe a slim slice of cheesecake too.

One thing I would not be serving is angel food cake. You just can’t trust those things!

What are his table manners like? He made a mess in Amy Pond’s kitchen. Maybe you should put newspaper down before dining with The Doctor.
