Colin Baker responds to multi-Doctor speculation

January 18th, 2010

colin_baker_6thColin Baker has revealed that the chances of all the surviving Doctors coming together for a one-off adventure, such as the previously rumoured Children in Need 2009 special, are unfortunately slim.

The actor, who portrayed the Sixth incarnation of our beloved Time Lord between the years of 1984 and 1987, isn’t getting his hopes up for a special anniversary sketch to mark Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary in 2013…

“I haven’t had a single approach from anyone connected to Doctor Who about doing anything,” he said in an interview with DigitalSpy. “Not even going along to watch an episode of it, never mind being in one, so I think the likelihood is very small.”

He added: “I don’t look the same. I started playing the part 25 years ago! Peter Davison does still look pretty much like he did then, but not me. I suspect I could play a part in the new series without you even knowing it was me!”

    To be honest Big Finish do original stories with the classic series actors and Colin Baker sounds great on Audio. I like Colin Baker and he got a bad deal from the BBC!
