Paul McGann

Colin Baker has with Nicola Bryant.

Paul McGann in a way, he was kind of on the same Sylvester McCoy episode.

So it's only right that Peter Davison shows up for one of these two, which very well might happen.

Yeah.

Right.

And then he, he leaves and we get an eighth doctor who is not Paul McGann.

Unless it is Paul McGann, you know? But I, I mean, I doubt it or whatever.

And Ace sticks around.

Would Ace have worked as well with a, with another doctor? Yeah.

I don't think she would have worked with Paul McGann.

That's for certain.

Yeah.

I mean, but also in the Tomorrow Windows, um, uh, you look into the window, and it gives you the gist of what's to come.

So then Paul McGann looks into the mirror, and he sees everything.

He sees-

Yeah

Yeah, absolutely.

So today we are taking a trip to Karn, and I will admit, this episode originally spawned the idea we need to talk Night of the Doctor, because it's absolutely amazing and we love Paul McGann.

And we thought, well, it's a nine minute, or is it, or it's, or seven minutes.

Seve-

Right.

Let's go from January 1976 then across to the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who.

We're all eagerly awaiting Day of the Doctor in the cinema, and then Night of the Doctor came out with Paul McGann's return as the Eighth Doctor.

Matt, what are your thoughts on this story and your reaction when it was released?

Mm.

Actor Paul McGann was photographed in character as the lead of Sharpe, a new period drama series made by Central Television.

But shortly after, he would badly injure his knee in a football game during a break in filming and would have to withdraw from production.

Sean Bean would take over the lead role.

I'm pretty sure we did, yeah.

Yeah, with River Song on it and Paul McGann as TV's Doctor Who and a bunch of Daleks on the cover of this one.

Oh

yeah, this is a very familiar looking cover, so yeah.

Yeah.

Some may say 1994 is the beginning of the new beginning.

Paul McGann auditions to play the doctor in the Doctor Who telefilm.

Yeah.
