Sketchbook #19: Doctor Who by Lee Sullivan
Another wet and windy day spent indoors marking, another delve back into my book of comics convention sketches. This is a lovely likeness of Paul McGann as the eighth Doctor, who featured in a single TV movie broadcast in 1996 - a brief return in the middle of a 16 year hiatus for the show.
McGann returned to the role via Big Finish audio adventures, and his incarnation of the Doctor featured in numerous BBC Books too. The actor finally made his on-screen comeback last year in a teaser for the 50th anniversary special of Doctor Who.
I think the line about the eighth Doctor being the George Lazenby of Doctor Who came from McGann himself. Considering this sketch dates back to 1997, he must have grasped how things would be quite quickly!
