episode 54 - Strange Laughs

The crew of Markwho42 come back from Easter break! And joining them is yet another guest with a link to the classic series. Join the guys as they talk to Nabil Shaban, who played the villainous Sil in the Six Doctor stories "Vengeance on Varos" and "Mindwarp" in what is one of the most in-depth interviews this podcast has ever done. Hear about his upbringing, his love of Doctor Who from the beginning and his attempts to get on the show that culminated in his part as Sil. Hear about his theater work on behalf of the disabled, and hear about the origins of Sil's unique laugh (and Christian's many many attempts at duplicating it). All this plus big Who news with birthdays, books, and the cast injecting some fun from a galaxy far, far away. (Plus a new accent from Ed)
