- Out of the TARDIS - Playing San Francisco street urchin Chang Lee in last year's TV Movie, Yee Jee Tso was last sighted skipping into the sunset clutching a bag of gold dust. Now he's back - and it's about time he faced up to the challenge posed by 20 all-new questions from the TARDIS tin.

Hoping to shed some light on the story's production Peter Griffiths tracked down original director John Davies.
