It was Headington Quarry in the Daemons. Pertwee himself was a singer of folk songs (of a sort) and released an albums of Children's songs in the 60s which included The Runaway Train, Froggy Went a Courting and My Grandfather's clock amongst others. Pertwee served on HMS Hood in the war and was taken off it prior to Hood sailing after the Bismark and being sunk leaving 3 survivors. I sent him the words to Dave Rawlinson's song "The Lost Fourteen Hundred" which he appreciated. The Hartnell story "The Gunfighters" from 1966 featured a song called "The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon" sung by Linda "Nurse Gladys" Baron I'll think of more later - I'm off to bed now as it's 1-00 in the morning! Good night Mark
