shows
What you don't see backstage is what really controls the show.
historical stories theme
I like the stories with the historical themes.
running stars fun
Doctor Who is like any long-running series in that the cast tend to look to the star to set the general tone. Rehearsals and filming could be a lot of fun.
two years shows
After two years of doing one show, you do get attached to everyone.
beautiful saws belfast
When we went to Belfast we saw some beautiful countryside and coastlines.
doctors looks stuff
I often look at a lot of Doctor Who stuff that's about now, which no one has approached me about.
memories nice thinking
The cybermen are good monsters, I think. My earliest memories are of the cybermen from when I used to watch when I was younger. It's nice to have them back.
fun ideas two
I'm not really a science-fiction fan, I quite like the idea of getting away from the science-fiction side of it, for two episodes. It was lovely, it was a super story and great fun.
teacher drama school
Before I got Doctor Who, I went to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I went back to take the final grade exam, which is the grade you have to take before you can take the teachers diploma.
fun worry legs
I enjoyed showing a bit more leg in the last few stories. It was good fun, but it can be quite sexist. But it doesnt worry me personally all that much.
theatre special television
I do still like television very much, but the theatre does really have something special about it.
writing doctors stories
I don't know if you've ever tried writing a Doctor Who story, but it's a lot more difficult than it initially appears, especially if you've got more than one assistant.
home terrible persons
I'm a terrible person for carrying things around. I carry everything around with me, it's like my home.
theatre ifs
I'd like to do some more classical work if I do some more theatre.
