Sylvester is such a gentleman, I've had the fortune to meet him three times and he's been brilliant for each one. The last I saw of him he was perched upon the Iron Throne whilst Katy Manning and Bonnie Langford had photos taken with fans infront of the Tardis prop. He sat swinging his legs back and forth cheekily grinning. No other Doctor could do that on the Iron Throne 😂
still the longest serving Doctor by far 1987 - 1996.
The seventh doctor was more memorable than he was given credit for at the time. Thank you Mr McCoy!
if Ghost Light had had 5 more minutes of explaining what on earth was going on, it would have been truly magnificent. As it was we got August Strindberg's Ghost Sonata for kids on Wednesday evenings. The last season was great
I did like Sylvester especially when the storylines suggested he could be 'Merlin' and how he could have been much more entwined in mythical history. Ghost Light was a great story, Greatest Show in the Galaxy was pretty ambitious for it's time, and Curse of Fenric had very dark elements esp with his relationship with Ace (and Sophie's acting in that was top notch as well). Am so glad he came back to hand over to McCann in the tv movie, and yes he can always claim that TARDIS was HIS, and in a way that design of tardis is what was then carried on when ecclestone took on the role in 2005
This was incredible, thank you radio times
McCoy was an excellent Doctor Who. I'm glad what he did with The Doctor. He made The Doctor more mysterious and made him manipulative and cunning.
MEL: "Well, I suppose it's time..."
Such a shame the BBC screwed McCoy and the series over.
should have wrapped the interview talking about the 60th anniversary and the return of Mel. Instead it just ends.
Bit muddled I think. Inconceivable that the BBC, who didn't like Doctor Who at the time, would extend season 27 to 26 episodes from 14 :)
