Talking Doctor Who
David Tennant is to host a documentary on BBC Four to mark the 60th Anniversary of Doctor Who.
In the programme, shown next Wednesday, Tennant time travels back through the BBC archives to tell the story of the Doctor’s classic era, with a selection of rarely seen interviews and clips covering William Hartnell’s first incarnation right through to the seventh Doctor, Sylvester McCoy.
On the way, Tennant compares some of his own experiences with the actors who came before him and shares special archive moments that reveal, amongst other things, how to film a regeneration, which actor was a master of modern gadgetry - including a collapsible caravan - and what the factors were that helped to decide how a Doctor selects his own individual and distinctive costume.
Viewers in the UK can see the programme on BBC Four on Wednesday 1st November at 7.30pm.
