Mike Tucker

Was a Visual Effects Assistant on Doctor Who from 1985 to 1989, and Miniature Effects Supervisor when the series returned in 2005. During the 2005 season he had the distinction of being the only person to have worked on both "classic" and "new" Doctor Who (as far as this contributor knows).
