Outtakes from Tom Baker doing a voiceover (1.6MB mp3; not at all worksafe). Hilarious! Choice quotes:
- “Are you sure this isn’t a translation from the fucking Albanian?”
- “Symphony: number one. Even for bleedin’ foreigners.”
- “Symphony. Even for monkey shaggers.”
- “I absolutely love this. I adore distilled whippet shit.”
Do we get the impression he didn’t want to do this much?
So you heard this too? I couldn’t believe half the things he said – took me a while to accept it was him and not just John Culshaw.

On Dead Ringers the other day Culshaw phoned Tom Baker up as Doctor Who to ask for his (own) help in winning his trial on Gagafron 6 (or some such place) where he was being prosecuted for crimes by the Time Lords Council.
Tom Baker was fabulous for someone caught out of the blue, and played along wonderfully. It was really very funny :o)
