‘Colin Baker’s experience with Doctor Who is actually quite inspiring. Colin was a longtime fan who jumped at the chance to do anything Who-related and was eventually cast as the Doctor during a time of rather terrible writing and bad executive meddling. He was generally disliked by fans who should have been angry at the showrunners. He was treated terribly during his tenure. And he still, to this day, remains a huge supporter, fan, and promoter of Doctor Who. That simply amazes me.’
