I was the VT engineer who recorded Adric's death. What went out was take two. The first attempt was clearly a shock for Mathew as the computer packed a bigger bang than he was expecting. I thought it was brilliant, but production wanted more dynamism from the Cyberman, so it was reshot. If you watch it knowing Mathew knows it's going to explode a lot, you can see it is already charred and Adric is standing as far back from it as he can get. He is poking at the keyboard rather than typing on it. Sadly, take one never got copied. I didn't know that was 'it' for Adric at the time, but I got a good idea when the closing titles were recorded - in silence. I called the studio to report 'the fault' and was told that was deliberate. I didn't tell anyone - not a word for decades, now I don't shut up about it !
Love Matthew and Adric, connected to him right away in the the show, saw the first part of KEEPER out of order and that was the first time I saw Adric and Matthew and myself in DW! Matt's wrong: the jelly babies were still in DW in season 17
I always liked Adric -- after TNG came out, he was unfavorably compared to sort of the Wes Crusher of Doctor Who, but he was such a perfect arrogant foil to Wesley, who was written to be much more insipid than he should have been. Adric OTOH was written to be an unapologetic pain in the ass, which was far more interesting and fun.
Mathew takesitupthesphinkterhouse. The worst assistant since Bonnie Langford and Turlogh. They say Dodo was awful but, a, I wasn't born then and, b, I saw het on dvd and she wasn't that bad at all. NOT LIKE THIS FAIRY
@@halfwayloyal He was a far better actor than Matthew Waterhouse or Bonnie Langford. He looked 26 you say... Tegan was supposed to be early twenties and that old bag looked 30 odd, so what?
Being homophobic regarding his actor being gay sounds like your only ‘criticism’, and not anything to actually do with his character itself, which just makes you wholly ignorant.

Would have loved to have seen that outtake
I absolutely loved adric, being 7 when he started, I guess him being younger made him relatable
Sarah was meant to be at our local convention this year - hoping she can make it next year
Three legends!
Great to see such a relaxed panel love these 3. 80’s DW was fab.

I'm finding some real gems while searching through the fantom videos.
You guys are awesone!
Absolutely loved Adric - we all loved him in our area
what area was that, Alazarius? His memoir's good though.

Apart from going gray Mathew just does not age
Especially when it came to his voice.
The Van Der Graaf Generator Tee from Mathhew bumps up Andric for me. I Know... little things
Who’s the Interviewer ?
I suspect that MW and JNT had a relationship.
It was MW and AA

Nothing wrong with Turlough! What you on about?
