William Hartnell and his wife, Heather. The two were married in 1929, and it's thought that the picture dates from that period  nosferatu42 likes this.

Apparently 'Doctor Who' is going to be filming at Little Woodham in Gosport this week Little Woodham is a 17th Century Village living history museum, so presumably there is going to be a historical story in the new series https://www.littlewoodham.org.uk/ nosferatu42 likes this.
