Happy birthday, Sylv! I was 6 in 1987 and my Doctor Who journey started properly with you so a massive Thank You for taking me through those wonderful adventures for three years and launching the fan within me! I am a Whovian forevermore thanks to you!

Thinking about it, McCoy does a have an extensive list of firsts tied to his Doctor including being apart of the very first Big Finish audio and the star of the first series of original novels not based on TV scripts in the Virgin New Adventures.

@@rayvenkman2087 fair! But I’d always seen Paul McGann as the flag ship incarnation of Expanded media and such from the EDA’s to the audios. Plus his incarnation’s adventures on audio are canon thanks to “Night of the Doctor”

Happy 80th birthday Sylvester. You were my Doctor growing up and I thank you for being so. It was great to meet you in Swansea in 2005

@Limes_not_Lemons Год назад

One of the many doctor's I've always wanted to meet. I'm so busy and can never make it to conventions or major events so I'll probably never be able to meet many (if any) of them, but Sylvester just seems so damn nice to talk to

@craigix Год назад

Loved him in 'The Owners', a horror movie where he plays a doctor with Maisie Williams. Check it out if you've not seen it, it's great.

Sylvester was my first Doctor. I was 5 when Time and the Rani first aired. I became a Whovian around the same time as I was a Trekkie and an F1 fan :)

I really loved Sylvester McCoy's role in one episode of 'Rab C. Nesbitt' where he plays a younger brother of Rab, driven insane by their violent and bullying father, and institutionalised in a care home. Incredible acting, playing a desperately sad character in this peerless BBC comedy series.

I think the first thing I ever saw him in was a small role in the Frank Langella version of Dracula. I think he had maybe one line but he was a memorable presence. He then went on to play the Doctor in some of my favorite Who stories, ever. Happy Birthday Sylvester!

When I was a boy (here I am at 46) and all of us kids would be playing in the yard I'd always have a fake name. I'd always be Sylvester, cause I was watching him every Sunday.

Easily my favorite Doctor Who after Tom Baker (I’m an American, can’t ya tell?) and the McCoy era is massively underrated.

@RopeDrink Год назад

@@TimmymantwoYall are missing the point. They said "the actors who played two Doctors" are Scottish (6+7 via McCoy, and 10+14 via Tennant). They are not talking about how many Doctors were played by Scottish actors in general. For example, Capaldi has been in the franchise three times - once in Torchwood, and twice in Doctor Who, but he has only played one incarnation of the Doctor, hence he is not included in the above list (despite also being Scottish).

Mel was pretty pretty unbearable at times u might say, screaming like chalkboards and fingernails. But she was tough as nails (despite the nails), loyal AS F**K, and while u might be stumpted between your morals Mel never wavered and never faltered and Mel was always right.

What episode is that thumbnail pic from? I don't recall. I know that's what's her name from Willow. She played as a companion during the William Hartnell years, but the episodes are lost. Blanking on her name. Really wish I could have seen those episodes!
