Interviews / Profiles

 * The Noble Savage - Nick Briggs talks with Louise Jameson about her role as the Fourth Doctor's companion, Leela. She takes us through her memories of Tom Baker, John Nathan-Turner's plans for her return in 1980 and brings us right up to date with her appearances in Dimensions in Time and the latest BBV production The Terror Game.
 * Acting the Part: David Troughton - While all-too-often recognised as being the son of Patrick, David Troughton's own acting career has also brushed with Doctor Who, albeit in a less prestigious capacity. Gary Russell asked him about his guest-starring appearance in 1972's The Curse of Peladon.
 * Peter Davison - Dr. Moo? - In the third and final part of this interview, Peter Davison tells Nick Briggs how much he enjoyed working with some other Doctors in The Five Doctors, and a couple more in The Airzone Solution.
