Did I ever want more showbiz glamour in my career? No, I don’t think so... Maybe that’s a surprising answer."
Back in the mid 1980’s, two Nicks (Courtney and Briggs) strolled around Trent Park the location for the Doctor Who story Mawdryn Undead and chatted about Nick C’s life and career.
Now, parked in a little red car on the shores of Rutland Water (location for Battlefield), they find not only that it’s too cold to venture outside, but also that they are surrounded by sheep.
With the aid of some previously unseen footage from their original Myth Makers, Mr B delves deeper and Mr C reveals a good deal more.
