Forum rules
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Start new topic to post your question. One question allowed per member per month. Ask one concise question per post, and please refrain from including information and comments irrelevant to your question.
These questions are for Tom to answer, so please do not be tempted to post a reply to someone else’s question. If you want to make a comment, post it in the Fan Community → About Tom’s Newsletters and Answers to Questions subforum.
Please do your research before asking a question and try not to ask questions which Tom has answered before – either here or in interviews such as the Doctor Who Magazine articles available on this website in the Doctor Who section. If your question is factual, please try googling it first to see if you can find the answer.
Questions about whether Tom will appear at a convention or in a particular programme or film are wasted questions as he cannot talk about any offers in advance, and the moment agreement is reached, he announces the news on his website.
Tom will answer a MAXIMUM OF 15 QUESTIONS PER MONTH.

Hi Tom,
I survived cancer last year after 6 months of chemotherapy. The birth of my daughter just prior to my illness drove me on. I am aware of the losses we as fans and you as a colleague and friend must feel of late. During my journey , I made trips to those I had lost touch with or neglected.
My question is: Is there anyone today who you would like to catch up with or are sorrowful that time or distance has separated you from for too long?
Thank you Tom
Bob F

Dear Bob,
Great news about the birth of your daughter, congratulations.
But your question is impossible for me. I can't imagine not existing. I can't imagine having a terminal cancer and thinking about people I have neglected. I once commiserated with an actor I knew - six feet five and 18 stone he had been. On the day I met him he was about 9 stone and looked like he might expire before I could count to ten. It was CANCER alright. I expressed my regret and he said: "Don't be sorry old chap, there's an awful lot of it (cancer) about and somebody has to have it". I hope I could say that in case of.........
Best wishes and congrats again about the baby. What's her name?
Tom
