Jeremy Bulloch is an absolutely, absolutely delightful gentleman. Absolutely. His first involvement

Jeremy Bulloch is an absolutely, absolutely delightful gentleman.

Absolutely.

His first involvement with Doctor Who was in the brilliant William Hartnell story The Space Museum, fighting against the Moroks as the rebel Tor; he also has the distinction - and it is an impressive distinction indeed - of having shot and killed the Sontaran Linx in The Time Warrior, in his role as Hal The Archer.

(And he was Boba Fett, to any Starwarsians out there.)

And, as a gentleman with such an impressive acting CV, we ended up discussing at some length how much it really matters in the creative disciplines that you do it because you have a genuine passion and love for the craft, or it’s not worth putting up with. And you can read about the kinds of things he’s put up with his website, where you can also find his cheeky, charming book.

(My brother, a classicist who lives with his wife and son back in Canada, is a Starwarsian. I’m pretty confident that he’s never been more jealous of my art before.)

And as always, if you’ve been involved in the Doctor Who universe, or know someone who has, do get in contact!
