Ainley's Traken CommentaryBookmark and Share

Tuesday, 11 May 2004 - Reported by Shaun Lyon
While Anthony Ainley's passing last week left us without his current remarks on the state of affairs in "Doctor Who," Paul Vanezis of the Doctor Who Restoration Team shared some good news yesterday: Ainley did in fact record a commentary for a possible forthcoming DVD release of The Keeper of Traken. Ainley was joined by Sarah Sutton (Nyssa), Matthew Waterhouse (Adric) and writer Johnny Byrne for the commentary, recorded last year to accommodate both Waterhouse and Ainley's schedules. While "Traken" hasn't been placed on the release schedule yet, the commentary is available when the DVD comes out eventually. Said Vanezis, "[I'd] corresponded with Anthony about doing other commentaries and [he] was very keep to do a proper 'Master' adventure; he was over the moon when I gave him a copy of a television play we had just recovered starring him, John Gielgud and Ralph Richardson and he was instantly likeable."
