Sylvester McCoy: “Fans wouldn’t let Doctor Who die”

In the first instalment of a 3-part interview, Doctor Who legend Sylvester McCoy speaks to RadioTimes.com about reinventing the Doctor and how the BBC had “fallen out of love” with Doctor Who in the late 1980s amid a ratings war with Coronation Street.

Plus, Sylvester discusses rumours of a Doctor Who film, why he was determined to return for the 1996 TV movie, and how much he loved his final “steampunk” TARDIS.

Part 2 is out tomorrow (Sunday, 20th August). For more Doctor Who news, interviews and features, visit https://www.radiotimes.com/doctor-who/
