Full transcript of interview with Peter Rogers on “The Professor”

For anyone who might be interested in these things, here’s the full transcript of my IM-based interview with Peter Rogers on his work in The Professor, which formed the backbone of my article on the show for Tor.com. I didn’t quite manage to work all of it in (obviously), so here it is for the curious.

Thanks also to Justin Davis for answering several background questions I sent to him in email.

Review of Doctor Who in the Guardian, 2 December 1963

Review of Doctor Who in the Guardian, 2 December 1963, “The space ship, for some unexplained reason, remained looking like a police box in the dusty desert. I hope this will be explained later.”

So I originally posted this thing back in November of last year. It was mildly popular then, but why is it suddenly blowing the fuck out of my dash today?

This lady is Verity Lambert, the first producer of Doctor Who. She is using the Mechanoid’s live flame thrower to light her cigarette.

This is the awesomest thing I’ve seen this weekend.

verity lambert: television producer, science fiction history-maker, badass

This is some Grade A badassery right here in this picture.

How have I never seen this before? Brilliant.

All flavours of Master are equally delicious.

Is it termed “saucy” in the UK? It’s called “spicy” here in the US, not that it matters.

#What flavour is Anthony Ainley though?

Cheese.

Well, this made my evening.
