How long have you been a Doctor Who fan?
Since 1991 when Mum bought me a bunch of novelisations at a fete
Have you been a member of an organised fan club or group?
Been a member of The Doctor Who Club of Victoria since November 1993
What do you feel is the appeal of the programme to yourself?
The combination of good humour, Enlightenment values (the philosophical movement, not the Peter Davison story) and quality acting
Do you have a favourite Doctor and what makes him your favourite?
Tom Baker, of course. He's my favourite partly because of his deep authoritative voice which made everything in the show seem serious and important and for his very detached humour, Which I think they've been trying to recapture ever since. As a reviewer once said, Tom Baker's Doctor could make any nonsense sound like science
What is your most prized Doctor Who posession?
My DVD collection, which keeps me on an eternal Doctor Who watching journey. At the moment, I'm just up to Evil of the Daleks
If you were given the role of showrunner for a season, what changes would you introduce to the show (if any)?
I would drop a piano on the heads of River Song and that annoying long-lived Viking woman and make it clear that this is the sort of piano-drop that absolutely nobody survives ever
Where would you go if you could take one trip in the TARDIS?
Early 1960s East Germany, just to see what things were like then, also to give them better microchips in a no-doubt doomed effort to save the future of communism
Do you have a preference for classic or new series Doctor Who?
Classic because it's what I'm used ti, but new series is really very very good. We are so lucky
