My close encounter with K9 by Jilly Cooper whose holiday guest was Dr Who's canine companion, the robot star of tonight's [[broadwcast:K9 and Company|TV special]]<br />
<br />
WEARY of wandering round the galaxy, missing his old master, longing for a home, K9—the most famous stray in the universe—landed on earth for the Christmas holidays. He chose England because he'd heard we were a nation of dog lovers. Discovering I was a champion of the underdog, he decided to visit me in Putney, and discuss the problems of being an outcast with my three mongrels. <br />
<br />
This fitted in perfectly with my plans because I felt there was one thing missing from my recent dog-tales series in the Daily Mail a magnificent mechanical mongrel.<br />
