Spookily my Doctor for some time was Peter Cushing as they kept showing his two films of a Saturday morning when I was a boy, and I still watch and enjoy them today. McGann though has done an awful lot of official Dr Who audio plays, so his body of work for the show is actually rather substantial - if you accept the audios as canon.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-80065146686206384472015-11-20T04:18:24.214-08:002015-11-20T04:18:24.214-08:00What a truly great figure, Simon.

I have always wondered why Peter Cushing's Doctor is not regarded as canon, despite appearing in two films, yet Paul McGann, who only appeared in one episode is?Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-72468211789454983062015-11-16T10:41:09.074-08:002015-11-16T10:41:09.074-08:00Cheers Dai.
