ATLANTIS: Did Paul McGillion Play These Characters Differently? (Dial the Gate)

  • STARGATE ATLANTIS actor Paul McGillion was in many respects the heart and soul of that show. Dr. Carson Beckett wore his heart on his sleeve, a congenial Scottish doctor who alternated between heroics and comedic relief (and sometimes both at the same time). When the character was killed off in the episode "Sunday," we were gutted.
    In this conversation with "Dial the Gate" Paul talks about his role, being written out of the hit show ... and then being written back in again, taking on the role of a Beckett clone engineered in secret by the Wraith Michael (played by Connor Trinneer). Did Paul play the two Becketts differently? Were they effectively the same person?
    He also talks about the fifth season horror episode "Whispers," working with Star Trek's Nicole de Boer, and the challenges he and his fellow actors faced on set.
    This clip is from Dial the Gate's full-length, 45-minute conversation with Paul. Watch the full interview here: • 118: Paul McGillion Pa...

    I still think it's weird hearing Paul speak with his natural accent, his Scottish was absolutely brilliant, and this is coming from a Scot, I'd love to know his inspiration for the accent :P

      I think it was chiefly his grandmother. Paul was born in Scotland and raised in Canada, so it comes quite naturally. 😀

    I cried the first time I saw that Carson died and every time I watch it, still today, I have a lump in my throat. It is so emotional, the end on the pier is so heart-warming and heart-breaking.

    I've contemplated how and if they broke the news of Carson's clone to his mom.
    On one hand, Carson's clone would have wanted to assuage her grief, but what story would they have to tell her?
    Dishonor the memory of the real Carson by saying they made a mistake and the man they buried was a misidentified corpse? Would the real Carson have been okay with that if it meant his mom would have her son back in her life again?
    Or do you tell Carson's mom the truth? If you do, then do you keep their visits completely private and Carson's clone can never show his face around town ever again? Or do you go halfway-- trot the 'mistaken identity' story for the public while giving Carson's mom the true story.

    I was miffed that they killed the doctors in both sg1 and Atlantis… it felt cheap to me…

    I wonder how would Stargate franchise and tv shows with the Stargate cocreator having important creative contributions officially handle it if there are official permissions between Amazon video studios/MGM studios and BBC studios to officially incorporate UNIT, Torchwood, the Doctor, the Doctor's companions, the TARDIS, the Cybermen, Dalek, Zygons, Ice Warriors, Weeping Angels, Sonatarians, Silurians, Doctor Who technology, Doctor Who Storylines. along side Stargate characters, Stargate Species/Races, Stargate technology, and Stargate storylines within official Stargate and Doctor Who crossover episode and/or episodes and/or multi episodes.

    Worst thing they ever did was bring him back, after such a great way to end his time. His character was simply crowbarred in for ratings.
