Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/04/2024"Captain Verity, him and Major Lambert, they don't take your filming seriously..." John Mortimer was 23 when Charade was published, Verity Lambert still at school. Did they meet? Unlikely. It appears to be a striking coincidence... 3/3 080
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/04/2024I even have a copy of a Rumpole novel inscribed by JM to VL 'with love and memories of Rumpole'. In Mortimer's first novel, Charade, published in 1947, there are two soldier characters, Captain Verity and Major Lambert... They're in scenes together and mentioned together. 2/3 060
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/04/2024Weird coincidence dept. I'm in a phase of watching and reading work by John Mortimer, distinguished novelist and playwright, creator of Rumpole of the Bailey. The Rumpole series was commissioned by none other than Verity Lambert at Thames TV. 1/3 050
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 23/03/2024Delighted to say I'm now coming along to the DWAS Caves of Androzani event at Riverside Studios tomorrow. See you there, those of you that are coming. 030
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/02/2024I'm pleased to say a new boxed set of Fifth Doctor audio serials will be coming out in March. Two very good writers: Lizzie Hopley, who has been writing and acting for Big Finish for many years. And Tim Foley, a very gifted new writer, new to me anyway. Well worth getting this. 230
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/02/2024Look forward to seeing some of you at Gallifrey in LA this weekend. Frazer Hines and I will be representing Classic Who, and other guests include Billie Piper, Camille Coduri and the great Derek Jacobi. Should be fun! 040

Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 28/01/2024Those with super-powered memories will recall that once, during an interview in DW Magazine in the 90s, I mentioned my liking for the books of Lisa St Aubin de Teran. We later got to know each other and I worked on a project with her in Mozambique... 1/3 010
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 11/01/2024Season 15 of classic Who on its way on Blu Ray! Even if you've watched all these on the telly you will need to get this, not least to see Katy Manning and me on the Sofa! Rarely has there been such fabulous entertainment since the days of the Marx Brothers!! 030
Reposted by Matthew WaterhouseMat @iamcyanblue.bsky.social · 11/12/2023I love how many callbacks and mentions Adric has had in the last few years :) I know the character was often polarising, but he was my point of identification as a 9 year old, newly-minted who fan back in 1981. I’m glad you’re getting props! 021
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 11/12/2023What a sweet and touching gesture that one of the first words uttered by the new Doctor is the name Adric! As New Who moves on into the future, there is a great sense of excitement and freshness and renewal. The gifted Ncuti Gatwa is a thrilling choice for the Doctor. 270
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 08/12/2023This month's DW Mag includes a free download of the audio serial Cold Fusion, in which Adric meets the 7th Doctor. This was very enjoyable to make, it was lovely to do scenes with Sylvester. The director was Jamie Anderson, son of Gerry of Thunderbirds fame. Do give it a listen! 050
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 23/11/2023Thanks to @robertdick.bsky.social I am now here. It will likely mean I'm just putting the same insights in both places. At least for now. 220
Matthew Waterhouse @minettalane.bsky.social · 23/11/2023Here we are, precisely sixty years since the first showing of the first episode of what is now known as 'classic Who'! 170
