It's almost as if they've pre-filmed Frazer's interview and Debbie Flint is merely reacting to it. They wouldn't be that silly to do that, would they? 😉
Peter was originally going to voice Gromit in Wallace and Gromit before Nick Park decided the character would work better as a mute. I wonder how his voice would've sounded.
I would have been nervous but excited to have met Sarah Sutton at that convention. Nyssa is my favorite Fifth Doctor companion and one of my favorite companions overall.
I remember so much of this in my deep dreams and childhood brain cells from 80s reruns of it on my local PBS station. I'm sure i taped it on Betamax as well. But it's like i could sing along with Tom Baker telling the story of how he got his Doctor Who role. "And I knew his wife quite well". Heh heh heh "No. Not in the biblical sense."
Ahhh, Terrance Dicks was a guest at the very 1st WHO convention I ever went to (along with John Leeson, that was rather surreal). Sadly, I never got to see Nicholas Courtney in person. The Brigadier was my FAVORITE supporting character over the entire run of the show, from the time Philly's Channel 17 first ran "The Silurians" in the early 70s. (Can you imagine, they SKIPPED "Spearhead From Space"?)
Two of my favourite sci-fi franchises. Though in recent instalments, I was honestly more thrilled to see the Enterprise-D return in the last season of Picard than David Tennant's return as the 14th Doctor for the 60th anniversary specials. Probably cuz we knew Tennant would return for the specials in some capacity as Whovians are so overly obsessed with him. So obsessive, it gets annoying at times. The D's return however was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one, after its destruction in Generations.
interesting to see the actors interviewed before the 'legacy' of Who really existed and their attitudes to their part in the show at that time. Though actually in more recent interviews their answers and opinions are pretty much the same as they were back then. Great Doc. (a doc on the doc, eh?)
Pertwee is strangely modest. He maintains he's a 'jobbing actor' thinking about lunch on the set of the Green Death, but the way he played and owned the part meant everything. His Doctor was one of my earliest heroes.
Great doco. It's a treat to see interviews of the classic cast & crew, as well as other Sci-Fi icons. It was also interesting to see early American fans of Doctor Who.
Always rubbed me the wrong way the way fans were presented in stuff like this back in the day. Even just small seemingly innocent things like dojng a dalek impression or rising into shot wearing a mask, it jusr presents such an easy target steteotype for people to kick down after the fact.
Jennie linden is amazing as. Barbara I have got doctor who and the daleks on dvd and it is on TV here in the UK on Sunday and I am going to watch it with my grandma
