PAUL MCGANN’S DOCTOR WHO:

Doctor Who – The Movie.
Note: It must be noted that, although Paul McGann only appeared in one feature-length TV film, he did provide continuity to the series by regenerating on screen from Sylvester McCoy. McGann signed a contract for a series, but unfortunately this didn’t happen because the film makers didn’t believe they could make a success of the show in the United States at that time. However, his version of the interior of the TARDIS was used when the show was relaunched in the new millennium.
   It must also be noted that Paul McGann has been the most prolific audio and drama Doctor Who, and that all of his appearances are available on BBC audio CDs.
