'Doctor Who': Then and Now (1987 TV Movie) User Reviews

An Interesting if somewhat low quality production

[CharlesD-2 · 10/10 · 31 May 1999]

This special was originally made for American PBS stations. The interviews it features are quite interesting as it has an interview with Patrick Troughton which must have taken place rather shortly before his untimely death. The programme also introduces Slyvester McCoy to American audiences as the new Doctor. Although the interviews themselves are quite interesting the interviewer and entire tone of of these made for PBS specials are rather hokey and laughable. As many laughs can be gotten from the hair styles of the stars and interviewers as can from their individual wit.
