Okay so this is going to go over 1000 likes. Some context:
Martin has loved Chris obviously since Doctor Who came back. He didn’t like David Tennant because he replaced Christopher Eccleston. (He likes the other new Doctor. Jodie tbd)

He loves everything Chris is in. The A Word. Fortitude. The Leftovers. Any film or fleeting appearance in anything post 2005 really. During this obsession martins love for Christopher Eccleston became a friendship that Martin cherished. A one sided friendship.

Martin carries with him at all times either an iPad, or one of two iPod touches (we thought the first one broke but it came back to life)
On one of these screens he ALWAYS, like without letting the screen even go to sleep ALWAYS, has a picture of Christopher Eccleston

This picture is Martin’s best friend. He shows this Christopher everything that happens in his life. He lifts presents or nice pictures or funny texts and shows them to this picture. As if he’s there.

There are videos of Martin meeting other heroes of his. Often in one hand, while hugging his heroes, he will acknowledge the iPod touch in his hand behind their back. Sharing it with Christopher Eccleston.

He sounds text messages to a blank number labelled Christopher Eccleston on his iPod touch. Thousands. Pictures too. Of anything and everything. His iPod touch often gets full up and we have to wipe it clean.

If Martin likes something he also tells us that Christopher Eccleston likes it. It’s his stock answer if you ask him any question really. Christopher Eccleston.
