Much of the credit for this must go to Nicola Bryant who is the subject of this issue. Interviewed by Nicholas Briggs, Nicola tells how it has felt starting her career in the worlds’ most most popular Science Fiction programme.

"The phone rang and they said, ‘Can we have your comments on the death of Doctor Who?’."
Undoubtedly, Nicola Bryant’s portrayal of Perpugilliam Brown has become one of the most popular characters in the history of Doctor Who.
When Nicholas Briggs first talked to Nicola in 1985, Doctor Who had been cancelled (for the first time) and its future was uncertain.
Now, eleven years later, they met again to discuss her last season in the programme and life after Doctor Who.
Both interviews are combined in this Myth Makers, giving us a fascinating insight into Nicola’s evolving life and career.
