Tom Baker

Tom Baker (Thomas Stewart Baker) was born on January 20th, 1934 and is currently 91 years old. Tom Baker was born in Vauxhall, Liverpool, England. Baker attended Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama.

Tom Baker is an English author and actor, best known for his role as the Fourth Doctor in the long-running sci-fi television series Doctor Who from 1974 to 1981. As the longest-serving Doctor, he remains a fan favorite. Beyond Doctor Who, Baker’s acting career includes notable roles in Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased) (2000–2001), Medics (1992–1995), and Monarch of the Glen (2004–2005). He also lent his "sonorous" voice as the narrator for the television series Little Britain and Little Britain USA. In 2006, his voice was ranked as the fourth most recognizable in the United Kingdom.

Baker served in the Royal Army Medical Corps from 1955 to 1957 before joining the Merchant Navy. He began his acting journey in 1956 by enrolling at the Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama. By the late 1960s, he had become a professional actor, paving the way for his distinguished career.

Baker’s novel, Doctor Who: Scratchman, serves as a love letter to the Doctor Who universe. Filled with the charm and vivid imagination that defined his tenure as the Fourth Doctor, the story begins on a remote Scottish island where the Doctor, Harry Sullivan, and Sarah Jane Smith hope for a peaceful retreat. Instead, they encounter a nightmarish reality: evil scarecrows terrorizing villagers and an even greater otherworldly threat looming on the horizon.

The book captures tension from the moment the scarecrows appear, forcing the Doctor and his companions into a desperate fight not only to survive but to preserve the very fabric of the universe. Baker’s unmistakable voice shines through his writing, making the events relatable to fans of the show. The scarecrows are described in spine-chilling detail, and the island’s isolation is vividly portrayed, fully immersing the reader in the eerie setting.

The antagonist, Scratchman, is a captivating blend of ancient myth and cosmic horror. His sharp dialogue probes the Doctor’s psyche, creating a deeply personal conflict. As a villain claiming to be the Devil, Scratchman strikes a perfect balance between charisma and terror, pushing the Doctor to confront his darkest fears in ways that feel fresh and impactful.

What sets Doctor Who: Scratchman apart is its authentic portrayal of the Fourth Doctor. Baker skillfully reveals the Doctor’s vulnerability, boundless curiosity, and wit. While the surface narrative focuses on defeating the monster, the story delves deeper into themes of morality, fear, and the resilience of the human spirit, making it a truly special addition to the Doctor Who legacy.
