The Megéve Experiment, was a documentary produced by Reeltime Pictures showing the production of a film starring Sophie Aldred and Deborah Watling as Ace and Victoria Waterfield. The documentary ends with the film itself.
It appears that this production was essentially a fan film. While Reeltime had previously recieved permission from the BBC to use Waterfield in Downtime, no such licensing agreement was ever founded over the character of Ace. [1][2]
Synopsis
In July 2002, an experiment took place... two Doctor Who actors, Sophie Aldred and Deborah Watling, travelled to France with director Christopher Barry and tutor Beverly Cressman, on a trip to educate, instruct and entertain a group of fans. During the following week, six Doctor Who fans learnt how to use their own talents to act for the theatre and screen... and during the process they had a great deal of fun! The culmination was a dramatised rehearsal, directed by Christopher, where everyone got to perform in front of the camera and for the first time Victoria and Ace met! Is this indeed Full Circle? Doctor Who professionals teaching fans how to act? Was this a successful experiment? You bet it was!
Special Features
Since 1988 a curious Doctor Who event has been taking place. Almost unnoticed by fandom in general, Dan Harris has been quietly organising cruises around the coast of America with fans and stars from Doctor Who. This must surely be the most obscure and unique fan activity of all! Join the intrepid Reeltime crew as we board the good ship Fascination with Nicholas Courtney, Yee Jee Tso and Lisa Bowerman as it leaves Miami on it’s way across the Gulf of Mexico. Somehow in this totally unique video (between trips on a glass bottom boat and to the Mayan ruins at Tulum) we manage to… squeeze in a Writers Workshop with Gary Russell, Stephen Cole and Simon Gerard… chat to the stars and fans about why they signed up… and include highlights of previous cruises.
