Hello everyone.. In another special podcast, I remember the real William Hartnell. The first Doctor Who : the original, you might say... Much has been written and said about Bill over the years, and now, perhaps, it is my turn. No holds barred. I only hope I do him justice.
This proved to be a particularly rewarding pod to put together. One question I found myself reflecting upon was this: when did I first become aware of Bill’s work? And that is where my tale begins… Along the way we explore a complex man who, in many ways, was both unusual casting and absolutely perfect casting for Doctor Who.
I do hope you enjoy this and I very much look forward to hearing your thoughts on these recollections of Bill the man, the actor… and my friend.
