WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A TESSERACT, ANYWAY?

Why does Doctor Who need all that room inside his TARDIS? What is he doing in there?

Every time you watch Doctor Who he's always out of the TARDIS, walking around, fighting Zygons and Sontarans and the like in Victorian London or Moonbase Zeta One or somewhere. Does he really need all that space to come back to when he's done? Because he's not using it for anything. The only bit of the TARDIS he ever really uses seems to be the console room. Sure, there was probably an episode in 1974 where he got a shirt out of the next room or something but, for the most part, it's dead space.

And why doesn't he get some chairs in there somewhere? What is with all the standing? The TARDIS must be the only vehicle that hasn’t been designed around a seat for the pilot or driver. And he's a seasoned time traveller - it's not like he can’t have noticed how other people are travelling in cars and stuff - sitting down.

Maybe all the chairs are in the back room of the TARDIS. I figure that he's storing loads of wind-up daleks in the back, too. When things get quiet, when he lands on a dull planet where nothing's happening, he sneakily opens the back door and lets them invade, just to give him and his companion something to do.

"Oh no, Doctor - it's the daleks."

"Well, that's an absolute, 100 percent surprise to me, let me assure you. I could not be more astounded that there are daleks on the loose here. It's like I am cursed to always meet with daleks."
