It's ok, India, most MNers know their kids have enough sense to be able to tell fact from fiction. The staff of the Times and the Spectator seem to be generally rational adults who can make that distinction too.
They don't actually believe there's a police box bigger on the inside than the outside, and they don't believe that human beings can regenerate into a different human of a different age or sex , no matter what fictional aliens might do.
Did India never see the lovely 'house hippo' thing?
