Reality Check:
Being Doctor Who
Originally broadcast 25/06/10 as part of an hour long I’m ready for my close-up special on Resonance 104.4 FM
A soslovie of ersatz Doctors gather outside a replica TARDIS at the Time Quest 2 convention in Theobalds park
On the eve of the season finale of the current series of Doctor Who, Alex Fitch looks at the enduring legacy of the show in a trio of interviews originating at a ‘Who’ convention in the Home Counties. Alex talks to former Doctor Sylvester McCoy, former Time Lord nemesis (and honorary Doctor) Michael Jayston, and also to San Franciscan cosplay expert Johanna Mead about her creating Who inspired costumes and contributing to the anthology ‘Chicks dig Time Lords’.

Hey, that Ten lookalike is pretty hot!
I mentioned that in my chat with Johanna, from a distance he looked like the real McCoy (if you excuse the pun)…!
