Me has a Bazooka! Seriously, how can anyone not love Benton? B&W Benton! (from Steven Hill's webpage) Sadly, it's ridiculously hard to find Benton picspam. Anyone who wants to help?

What makes it so funny is NOT that everyone is laughing at him. It's Brig's face while looking down.

Unexpected neekid Benton is the best kind of neekid Benton, and is far cooler than unexpected neekid clone!ten or unexpected neekid Jack, or even unexpected neekid Three, and wow, there is an unexpected amount of unexpected neekidness in DW considering it's a children's show!

Hurrah for Sergeant Benton and his manly physique!! Hurrah for the bazooka and Benton's pleased expression as he wields it!! Hurrah for the look on the Brig's face when confronted with Benton's manly physique!! Benton looks so cool in the picture with the walkie-talkie - makes me want to sign up for UNIT too - I'll bet that's the picture they use on the UNIT recruiting posters. But, you know, it's hard looking that good all the time:

All of you should enjoy the short-lived BBC spinoff, "Naked Benton Unwillingly Transported Without Warning Throughout Time and Space Every Time He Sneezes Due to the Polarity of Something Not Being Reversed".

Of course - like K-9 and Company, it deserved to be picked up for the full series. Of course, it wasn't all good; when RTD saw it, he was inspired to create Torchwood, the working title of which was "Unwilling Naked Sneezing Time Travellers - In Cardiff." Just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?

Of course, it wasn't all good; when RTD saw it, he was inspired to create Torchwood, the working title of which was "Unwilling Naked Sneezing Time Travellers - In Cardiff."

Out of curiosity, was the opening theme for Naked Benton Unwillingly Transported Without Warning Throughout Time and Space Every Time He Sneezes Due to the Polarity of Something Not Being Reversed anything like the theme for K-9 and Company? As for Torchwood, this is yet another example of RTD stealing a great idea from the old series and re-doing it in a significantly less charming matter. For, try though he might, unexpected naked Jack shall never be as charming and adorably awkward as unexpected naked Benton. On a side note, after extensive wiki!research, I have deduced that the pilot episode of i]Naked Benton Unwillingly Transported Without Warning Throughout Time and Space Every Time He Sneezes Due to the Polarity of Something Not Being Reversed[/i] (fondly known as NBUTWWTTASETHSDTHPOSNBR by fans) was entitled "Attack of the Alien Sneeze Pollen" and featured a dimensional rift which cause time disturbances across the UK, resulting in a permanent dating controversy for chronologers.

Out of curiosity, was the opening theme for Naked Benton Unwillingly Transported Without Warning Throughout Time and Space Every Time He Sneezes Due to the Polarity of Something Not Being Reversed anything like the theme for K-9 and Company? It was very similar, but done in a sort of Bossa Nova style. With maracas. And vocals by the great John Levene. Unfortunately, if you want to see it, it was only ever released on Betamax, here in the UK, and the archive footage was all destroyed in an unfortunate accident involving John Nathan-Turner, an Hawaiian shirt and a tin of sardines. When the tapes show up on eBay now, they regularly change hands for upward of 10,000 USD. Rumour* has it that John Levene will make a guest appearance in Seaspn Three of Torchwood, reprising his role as Naked Benton. He was originally supposed to be in SJA, but, well, it's a kid's show, and they didn't feel a naked man would be entirely appropriate. One of the interesting things about the NBUTWWTTSETHSDPSNBR pilot was that it cast interesting light on the events of Mawdryn Undead - turns out that the Brig's nervous breakdown wasn't caused by meeting his future self, but rather due to meeting Naked Benton... *i.e. my sick imagination

Then go to my house and watch Naked Benton and other Who, in my room because I don't think my mom wants to watch it. xD

Well, we all have our various theories on why NBUTWWTTSETHSDPSNBR did not in fact succeed as much as we might all have hoped... one factor may just have been the fact that its abbreviation is longer than most aimless undirected crazy sentences a crazy guy might let loose with....
Upon relection, it must be admitted that most clever people have speculated at one time or another that most plans with potential have in fact fallen apart due to the involvement of some guy in a tacky Hawaiian shirt.
