He only made a brief appearance as The Eight Doctor in the 1996 movie, but the actor has spoken about his eagerness to return to the hit TV show in a brand new interview.
Speaking to Digital Spy, McGann had this to say:
Being Doctor Who, there’s always anniversaries looming large – celebration programmes and episodes. I’m often asked, ‘If they get the five Doctors together, would you do it?’ and of course, I’d do it. They’ve just got to ring me up! Although I was [in] Doctor Who for six weeks, sixteen years ago, it never goes away – it only ever seems to get stronger. I’d love to do that again, but that’s not up to me.”
While the Doctor Who TV Movie garnered lots of flack from both critics and fans, McGann’s portrayal of The Doctor has been widely acclaimed.
