As we reported, Dr Jackson is ‘unavailable’ for the foreseeable future. This problem has been answered by his temporary replacement, Colonel Freeman Dear Dr Jackson, I recently had a very close and intimate meeting with a man with whom I have worked for some years. Although we have never openly admitted our feelings for each other, I have known for some time that there is an unspoken attraction between us,…
Dear Dr Jackson, I have been hearing strange high-pitched noises during the night. They wake me up and I am unable to sleep. What is more worrying is that no one else seems to be disturbed by these sounds.I seem to be the only person who can hear them. Please can you help me? Elizabeth H. Dear Mrs H. High pitched noises at night? Unpleasant, especially as you say that…
Dear Dr Jackson. Every time I come to work I am followed by a rather creepy group of people in a car, right up to the Studio main entrance. They drive right up behind me and stay on my tail. I am worried what will happen if I stop, even though I am moving slowly. I would appreciate your advice. Communications Operative Dear Communications Operative, I was concerned about…
For this special issue of the Ed Straker (may his name be reviled through the universe) Herald, we have asked two of our leading psychotherapists, Doctor Virginia and Doctor Alec to answer your questions. Dear Doctors, I recently met a new man in my life. He is everything I could wish for, handsome, wealthy, fun, generous and considerate. He is the man of my dreams and has asked me to…
Dear Dr Jackson, I am an unmarried scientist in my thirties, and although I have, in the past had a string of short term but intense romances, most of which have ended in disappointment. I now find myself attracted to my boss. He, however, seems to completely ignore my advances despite all my attempts. I find myself running after him, stealing surreptitious sips from his coffee, even batting my eyes…
Dear Dr Jackson, my boss is exhibiting worrying symptoms. We have enjoyed an excellent working relationship for all the time I have worked for him as assistant art director, but in the last few weeks he has begun to act in a most peculiar way, almost as if he is a completely different character. I heard him yesterday demanding that Mr Foster call him ‘sir’, and he has been ignoring…
Dear Dr Jackson. It’s Spring again. I hate this time of year. My love life sucks, I can’t get a boy friend and I spend most of my time stuck in a secret underground complex looking at a computer screen, or getting shouted at by my boss. Wherever I look I see lambs and bunnies and everyone full of the joys of spring. I am fed up. Please help. Depressed…
Dear Dr Jackson, in January I was transferred from SHADO HQ to an area that is unfamiliar to me. I have been relying on my Sat-Nav to help me find my way around but there have been numerous difficulties, the latest of which involved me getting a Universal Markers transporter stuck under a low railway bridge. Prior to that I was sent the wrong way down a one-way system…
Dear Dr Jackson, Since a recent incident at work involving a threat to end all life on Earth by destroying canisters of nerve gas, I seem to have lost my drive. I used to be able to hit that sweet spot every single time, but now I am struggling to simply maintain my grip. My last encounter with my partner was most unsatisfying as I simply couldn’t get it in…
Dear Dr Jackson, I used to have a good working relationship with my boss, we have been friends for many years, and in fact I was the best man at his wedding, but recently he has become increasingly distant and focussed on work. We no longer even share a drink anymore and he has started to ignore my advice. I sometimes feel that he prefers the company of his computer…
