Nick also sent a Softly Softly Task Force group picture from 1974 –<\/p>\n

\"Softly_small\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nick says that \u00a0“…. this is\u00a0\u00a0TC4 and, as I know it was taken before just lunch on the second day, the date of the photo would be Friday 7th November 1974 ” \u00a0Nick is centre rear, and was the vison mixer.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in the modern world, Pat Heigham<\/strong> has been mixing with the Dr Who crowd.<\/p>\n

He says he “…….found himself on the other end of the microphone last year, having been invited to join original Dr. Who actors to record an alternative audio commentary to a DVD release of several restored episodes from 1967!<\/p>\n

\u201cI worked on Dr. Who as Grams Operator from 1963 through to 1967, and was able to relate some stories about aspects of the studio production at the time. The audio commentary took the form more of a chat than a precise description of the episodes, which were played to us for triggering reminiscences, and it was splendid to meet up again with the cast members from so many years ago.<\/p>\n

The recording venue was PK Studios in Hammersmith, operated by Paddy Kingsland who had been active at the BBC Radiophonics workshop at Maida Vale to where I used to go and fetch the various specialised sound FX for the series. I was particularly impressed that transport was provided to and from the recording studio \u2013 they sent a chauffeured Mercedes! I did enjoy being a \u2018luvvie\u2019 for the day!\u201d<\/p>\n

The picture shows (L-R) Actor Toby Hadoke (chairing the session), and Frazer Hines (Jamie), Deborah Watling (Victoria) \u2013 the Doctor\u2019s travelling companions for the Patrick Troughton episodes of \u201cThe Ice Warriors\u201d, P.H. and Sonny Caldinez who played (a very large) Ice Warrior!”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I must admit that when I first saw the photo I didn’t recognise Frazer or Deborah, so I include this one of Deborah from around the time of her appearance in Dr Who, just to remind you –<\/p>\n

\"DB1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I couldn’t seem to find a comparable shot of Frazer, but you could try Google images.<\/p>\n
