TARDIS Treat, 30 year anniversary Jon Pertwee, Katy Manning reunite for a television interview, joined by a Dalek and a Cyberman. Segment 2: a bizarre excersise segment including the Dalek. Segment 3: Jon and Katy return.
I think it's common knowledge among the fandom at this point that Jon Pertwee hated creatures like the Daleks and the Cybermen with expressionless or the absence of faces, so the fact that he's having fun and playing along is really nice to see here. It's also neat that he watched enough of the show after he left to know about the Daleks conquering their inability to ascend stairs. I wish Jon was still alive today. He seems like such a cool person.
I love how devoted Jon Pertwee was, all the way, if he was alive for the 50th I bet he would have pressed for the classic doctors to be in the special! Bad enough they didn't do a 30th :(
I met Katy last year, and she is the sweetest, loveliest woman ever. I told her I'd always wanted to meet her, and she said the same to me, which was odd, but somehow delightful.
@William Campbell I did. A very impressive man, though the sort who soon puts you st your ease. I was a teenager in a Third Doctor costume, and he asked me who made it. "My mom," I said, somewhat awestruck. "You should congratulate her," he said.
Wow Katy was so fashion forward even then. She looks incrediable. That outfit would not look out of place or dated even today. Maybe she really does time travel.
Honestly, Steven Moffat is enough of a Doctor Who nerd that I would not be surprised if he included the bit about souffles just to reference an obscure interview with Jon Pertwee and Katy Manning.
that's pretty neat and shows how much an ambassador for Doctor Who Pertwee was as he promotes a Dalek video set he doesn't feature in- interesting clip
Jon pertwee was not a fan of the daleks . As far as dr who goes you could not have found any actor to have played the role been more passionate about the character.
Fantastic, great to see Jon & Katy again. The good old days of Doctor Who, better than the politically correct new series with it's shitty feminist agenda. From 2005 till now Doctor Who has been a fucking abomination!
