An Afternoon with SYLVESTER MCCOY


The celebrations are still going for our 100th episode and for this special bonus episode we share a 2007 interview that Philip did with Sylvester McCoy in Sydney for the Doctor Who Club of Australia event, "An Afternoon with Sylvester McCoy". 

The footage was a recent discovery from Dwayne's vault (shed) as he had also attended the event, but the dynamic duo of Philip and Dwayne was at that time still a long way off. 

We share the trailer for the Big Finish story "Frozen Time" from 2007, featuring James Bond actress Maryam d'Abo. - https://www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/doctor-who-frozen-time-264
