Yes, this was a childhood ambition, indeed. I would see myself as being [a companion] and indeed played the games in the playground, running around and going into various TARDISes, various cupboards. Yeah, that was a childhood fantasy.

Who was your Doctor at the time and was there a particular companion you liked?

Well it was Tom Baker, and I suppose Lalla Ward was certainly one of them. I can't remember the others I'm afraid, I'm not very literate in that way.
