Anyone else remember Dr Who in Dixon of Dock Green on R4?

[oggsfrog]

That's it really .

I was just listening to it and remembered that David Tennant used to play Andy Crawford a couple of years back before he became a Time Lord.

I was thinking the same! When did they change? I thought there was a bit of an overlap. Today's ep was a repeat, I think.

[solo]

Oh my God! I remember DoDG.

[GrimmaTheNome]

Oh, never realised it was him. Some voices on radio are unmistakeable, but Tennant's is mutable.

[oggsfrog]

I'd forgotten all about DT as Andy until they listed the actors before this morning's episode.

I do think DT has a memorable radio voice though. I've got some audio books of him reading Dr Who and they are sublime.

[GrimmaTheNome]

But is he using his doctor voice in the audio books? I missed DoDG today, and can't remember which accent it was even!

[oggsfrog]

Scottish accent in DoDG.
In the Dr Who cd he narrates in his own scottish accent and goes into character for The Doctor, does a cockney accent for Rose and does various character voices throughout. It's great

[GrimmaTheNome]

I think you may have just solved my problem of what to get DD for xmas
