My guest this week is actor Colin Spaull, who began acting as a child and is still going strong. His early appearances include the role of Pip in Great Expectations and Peter in Heidi, and since then he’s been in everything from Coronation Street to Doctor Who. Colin talks with me about acting school, why he prefers theatre to television, his experience on The Murder Game, which had no script, and what it’s like to encounter the Cybermen close up on Doctor Who—and a lot more.

One correction: While Colin was the first actor to be in both classic Doctor Who and the new series, he's no longer the only one.
