Doctor Who 1989 Sylvester McCoy on Noel Edmond's Saturday Roadshow

Sylvester McCoy appearing on Noel Edmond's show, apparently after the cast knew Doctor Who had been cancelled.

Well, that audience seemed pretty pleased with The 7th Doctor. Too bad the BBC didn't give him and Sophie more of a chance...

[@minicle426]

The BBC at that point was trying to get the show axed anyway. 🤷‍♂️

[@semajttam]

​@@minicle426grade was trying to get it cancelled since 1984. Given that Russell T Davies was working for the Beeb in 1989....who knows.

@@semajttam Michael Grade consistently said that he hated the show, which is why he wanted it axed.

1:49 - 1:55 You can only imagine how many times he must have had to say that to get it right, judging by the applause he gets for it. xD Love him! :)

The Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) said he visited 2014 and that Noel Edmonds was still working for the BBC, half true, still working but for an abhorrent game show called Deal or Not Deal and that's 27 years on!

[@SuperFunkmachine]

4 years later he came back an told him that again, " i travel thru space an time, i don't visit fantasy isles"

2:14 - so relieved when it was a Cyberman that could "fix it" , I was dreading something far more sinister would have come out the TARDIS ifywim....

2:19 I didn't know Kroton the good Cyberman fixes up the Tardis from time to time and also hosted a BBC show in the 80s

*the doctor pours custard onto blob of antimatter* Blob: Neep! Doctor: what do ya mean more sugar?

That joke had me laughing my head off.😂🤣🤣

[@dr.davidwho4053]

That cyberman sounded like Christopher Lee!

[@arandompersonthatyoumightk4476]

Lmao

[@PizzaTimeFanatic]

2:12 We meet again, Doctor.

[@alexispolenne1680]

Haha, looks like the Doc was right. Edmonds was indeed still working for the BBC in 2014.

[@gaz312]

I think Noel should be the next doctor & Mr Blobby should be one of the bad guys.

[@David-ve5iq]

No, you're still opening boxes with different numbers in them on daytime TV.

[@Nuttybott]

"Sylvester McCoy appearing on Noel Edmond's show" His name is "Edmonds", not "Edmond"...that sentence should read "Sylvester McCoy appearing on Noel Edmonds's show". And why does he call the Doctor "Doctor Who"? That is the name of the show the Doctor appears in, not the name of the character...

[@harleyhartley3168]

don't be such a critical mop

[@davidbull7210]

He was credited as Doctor Who on screen for the first 18 years...and then again when it returned with Eccleston
