WHEN Dr. Who's Tardis landed in America, he wasn't the only one wearing strange clothes.<br />
<br />
Jon Pertwee found that his fans in the United States also wear his Doctor's costume—frilly shirt and cloak.<br />
<br />
Jon, whose Dr. Who series is now being shown in America says : "I spent 10 days in San Jose talking to enthusiasts.<br />
<br />
"There were some rather strange-looking sights — small round men with cloaks drooping on the ground.<br />
<br />
"But at least they don't wear shorts with the frilly shirts!"<br />
<br />
Today Jon appears with Peter Davison, Patrick Troughton and Richard Hurndall in an episode of [[broadwcast:The Five Doctors|THE FIVE DOCTORS]] (BBC1. 6.15).<br />
<br />
The trip to the States made a welcome break for Jon, Who has been writing his autobiography Moon Boots and Diner Suits ready for publication on October 23.<br />
<br />
The literary life hasn't stopped Jon making his personal appearances at the Liverpool International Garden Festival as Wurzel Gummidge.<br />
<br />
He says : "I have had such a tremendous reception from fans all ages that I am even more determined to get the series back on to television.<br />
<br />
"I have already approached some potential backers and feel more confident about its return than ever before." <br />
<br />
Spelling correction: Worzel Gummidge<br />
