 | | For an entire decade, fandom's only Who fix came in the form of novels (which some fans felt, and not always unjustifiably so, betrayed the premise and tone of the original TV series) and those unofficial, Doctor-Who-in-everything-but-name fan videos and audios. |
 | | The BBC's reluctance is somewhat understandable, when fan entrepreneurs like Baggs were releasing audio plays casting Sylvester McCoy as the time-traveling "Professor" with Sophie Aldred as "Alice," making decent money from the sales, and not owing a cent to the BBC because, more or less, only the names were changed. |
 | | But these plays have redeemed the sixth Doctor, extended the life of the seventh, and have brought Paul McGann back to the role of the Doctor after the still hotly-debated 1996 TV movie, lending a little more credibility to the George Lazenby of the Time Lord set. |
