IF YOU'VE GOT THE SPACE, THEN HE'S GOT THE TIME...

Copyright BBC TV

For all those who enjoyed the TV programme about how WILLIAM HARTNELL became the very first DOCTOR WHO, it's now available on DVD.  So, if you have any belated Christmas gifts still to buy for any fans of the TIME LORD, your problem is solved!

Anyone else like to see actor DAVID BRADLEY appear in a few TV specials, relating untold tales of Hartnell's Doctor? I know I certainly would.  Let's hope STEVEN MOFFAT reads this blog (unlikely though it is).

    Kid,
    Can't help thinking there is nothing else left to dramatise about Hartnell in his role as Dr Who.

    Not talking about dramatising Hartnell, Ken _ I'm talking about 'untold' adventures featuring Bradley as the first Doctor.

    With you now. Recommendations for assistants? What post Hartnell aliens/villains? Bit of blank canvas for the writers to write around Hartnell's characterisation perhaps a few less special effects and a bit more detective element to it?

    Ken.

    I think it's great idea Kid. David Bradley is too good as Hartnell to not use again. 'Untold tales of the first Doctor' would make a great occasional special.

    Not sure about assistants, Ken - Susan, maybe? Certainly less of an SF slant to it, more a mysterious traveller who pops up at different points in history and helps people.

    Terry, Bradley's Doctor had an authority and presence that's been lacking for a while now, in my estimation. Glad you like the idea.
