All these people have now moved on and it was only ever a perceived undertone anyway. The saddest irony of all is that Sylvester McCoy has got more news exposure as the Doctor now than he ever did at the time.
I'm sure if we all looked hard enough we could see spurious bias in lots of other programmes we all grew up with. Lenny Henry, who was blatantly open about the government is his programmes, hasn't had a look in.
