I thought this jumper might come with a free “pleasant, open face”

Alas, my friends, it did not

What I have is most charitably described as “a face”

Kinda is possibly the only televised Doctor Who to get this butchered by its own novelization. Dicks either didn't understand Bailey's script or couldn't care less.
