Revision as of 13:58, 29 January 2014
The Colonel Tick Tock title banner as depicted in the Original Graphic Novel.
The fey Colonel Tick-Tock polices the fractured timeline for Her Majesty's Royal Chrono Patrol, interrupting not-always-terribly-well-researched historical moments and facing down the occasional villain, including the Greenwich Meanie, Auntie Meridian and the occasional dinosaur, from pre-history and all that. Pip Pip!
The Colonel has a wife, Constance, and, perhaps more importantly, a moustache. He works for Queen Victoria.

Behind the Scenes
In the M Bar days of the Thrilling Adventure Hour, long before it was podcast, The Cross-Time Adventure of Colonel Tick-Tock was more theme song than segment. It would feature a long opening, then Colonel Tick-Tock would very quickly solve a problem with time travel, then go into the closing theme, which had several false stops that would only cut into even more closing theme.
