Cuckoo Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 We are happy to announce that Matthew Waterhouse will be joining our already fab line up at Dimensions. Matthew was a great fan of Doctor Who in his younger days. Adric was a companion of Tom Baker and Peter Davison's Doctors from 1980 to 1982. Matthew was the youngest male actor and youngest actor to play a companion (Sarah Sutton was the youngest female actor and second youngest to play a companion), and had only appeared in one television drama prior to being appointed in the role. He played the schoolboy Briarley in the BBC2 adaptation of To Serve Them All My Days with John Duttine. Matthew returned to the sphere of Doctor Who and took part in the audio commentaries for the DVD releases of Earthshock and The Visitation released in 2003 and 2004 respectively. He also provided commentary for The Keeper of Traken, released in 2007 as part of the New Beginnings box set. Though released separately, all commentaries were recorded in the same week, as noted by Matthew in his commentary for The Keeper of Traken. More recently, in late 2008, he made an audio commentary, jointly with Peter Davison, Janet Fielding and Sarah Sutton for the DVD releases of Four to Doomsday and Black Orchid. He also talks about his complete tenure on the show in the featurette "The Boy With the Golden Star" dedicated to Adric on the Warriors' Gate DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
