Is it the eponymous Doctor from Doctor Who? Patrick Moore in Sky at Night?
What's your guess?
Turns out that at 70,000 hours – or nearly eight years – of onscreen time, it's Carole Hersee. Who's she? You'll recognise her after the jump. If you're of a certain age, anyway.
She still owns Bubbles the clown, apparently.

That seems a bit of a cheat, since it was just a frozen moment in time as an ident card. (How many different ones did they have of her?)
You don't have to be of a certain age anymore when it comes to her; not when her image played a key role in 'Life On Mars'. I never heard of her nor seen her image before the show, but a quick Google image search on BBC test cards after the first time she showed up gave me the info I needed.

There's a picture of Ms Hersee here
for those who like to play 'Where are they now?".
It's interesting to find out that the X in the noughts and crosses game marks the exact centre of the screen.
