5, Regeneration in Doctor Who is not random: when a time lord regenerates (s)he actually selects from a "rack" of pre-determined forms. This means that the Sixth Doctor looks like Colin Baker because the fifth Doctor and Maxil were secret lovers, and in regeneration he took the form of the man he loved.

4, Dried Frog Pills contain no frog whatsoever, and are in fact completely vegan.

3, Christopher Lee only has two ways of acting a death scene. Death scene #1 involves falling to his knees, with a shocked expression, and then keeling over backwards. Death scene #2 involves falling to his knees, with a shocked expression, and then keeling over forwards. When challenged on this he will always reply that he has seen death and knows how it happens.

2, Pratchett dwarf lore applies in LotR too, and Gimli is really a girl.

and, of course

1, "Doris", the wife of Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart in Doctor Who, is a post transition Sgt Benton.

The first half of #2 is movie canon, and the second half has been my own fanon for years. I thought it was obvious!

Hm, according to wikipedia - "In The Lord of the Rings Tolkien writes that they breed slowly, for no more than a third of them are female, and not all marry; also, female Dwarves look and sound (and dress, if journeying—which is rare) so alike to Dwarf-males that other folk cannot distinguish them, and thus others wrongly believe Dwarves grow out of stone. Tolkien names only one female, Dís. In The War of the Jewels Tolkien says both males and females have beards.[18]"

So... yea. :P

I'm just trying to work out the implications of #5 on Chancellor Hedin's resemblance to the Celestial Toymaker...

(2) will just lead to straight Gimli/Legolas fanficporn which will be as wrong as the gay versions :-)

(Actually I don't know that either exist - but knowing the internet I'd make a small wager!)

I hadn't heard # 1 before but now I'm convinced it's true :-D
