Cosmic license plate clues?

~inquiry

I looked up at the license plate of the vehicle stopped ahead of me at a red traffic light to see:

74RD15

Just wondering if anyone else sees what jumped out at me therein....


inquiry

"Gallifreyan"

seems more than a little related to, for example:

And

mouse's

"Anyone like a jelly baby?"

is certainly the wheelhouse zone.

screwdriver

Ah, I didn't realise alcohol was involved. Music + Alcohol would definitely then be James Bond.

It would make sense he's an alien, given his shapeshifting abilities across the decades, and his unholy tolerance to alcohol.

Oh right, the Quidditch world cup, when Ron brought his tent and it was the size of a 3 bedroom apartment! Harry Potter, naturally

Try again. That was Ron, not HP.

HP wherever you are, forgive tetris.
