The rest of the supporting characters are all just as entertaining; Arthur Smith deserves far more praise than I have room to write for his portrayal of ‘Clarrie’, as does Marcus Hutton for ‘Bucko’ and Chris Neill for the hilariously camp torturer, Sir James “Exciting isn’t the word” Tyrell.
Of course, Jon Culshaw is also in there, credited for the rather small role of ‘Earl Rivers,’ but undoubtedly his most important contribution to the play is his uncredited impersonation of the fourth Doctor.
He plays Tom Baker’s Doctor in an old audio recording that the fifth Doctor is using for his research, and to be fair I couldn’t tell that it wasn’t Tom Baker.
