The cybermen are good monsters, I think. My earliest memories are of the cybermen from when I used to watch when I was younger. It's nice to have them back.

I think I must have too much to eat, we were doing a scene where we were crawling, and I ripped my trousers. I was very embarrassed. I was sown in, stitched in, quickly!

I love photography. My boyfriend's got a great camera, which I bought for his birthday.

I like the stories with the historical themes.

I enjoyed working with Peter, I was very pleased when I heard he was going to be the Doctor.

When we went to Belfast we saw some beautiful countryside and coastlines.

There are generations who watch Doctor Who together.

There's lots of interesting jobs in the profession besides acting, and I like to try and keep an eye on and understand other people's jobs, rather than just my own.

Doctor Who is like any long-running series in that the cast tend to look to the star to set the general tone. Rehearsals and filming could be a lot of fun.

I'm a terrible person for carrying things around. I carry everything around with me, it's like my home.

Before I got Doctor Who, I went to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I went back to take the final grade exam, which is the grade you have to take before you can take the teacher's diploma.

I went to ballet school for nine years, and there was an agent for the whole school who happened to be there visiting one of the performances. She suggested an audition.

Strikes always leave a bad taste with everyone.

I found it a little bit stressful, because I wasn't used to working with Doctor Who. I got the impression I'd walked into the end of seven years and it was all a bit tense.

I often look at a lot of Doctor Who stuff that's about now, which no one has approached me about.

After two years of doing one show, you do get attached to everyone.

Playing an alien gave me plenty of scope, and I was able to develop it once I became a member of the team.

I don't think I would have stayed for the second season if I hadn't been happy.

The cybermen are good monsters, I think. My earliest memories are of the cybermen from when I used to watch when I was younger. It's nice to have them back.

I'm not really a science-fiction fan, I quite like the idea of getting away from the science-fiction side of it, for two episodes. It was lovely, it was a super story and great fun.

I got very fit that week with all the running around that we di. I was always last, because I can't run as fast as everyone else. I'm useless at running.

One of my favorite stories was Black Orchid, because it was so different from all the others. I especially enjoyed dancing the Charleston. I have always been keen on dancing.

I would like to direct. What goes on behind stage is very interesting.

In the studio, if they need to come down to the floor, things are a bit pushy, although it is easier for them to say things directly rather than through about five people.

Some of those cartoons look nothing like me.

What you don't see backstage is what really controls the show.

We had a very energetic floor manager and he was always jumping around all over the place. The director would send down messages like, Can you tell that actor to calm down?

I enjoyed showing a bit more leg in the last few stories. It was good fun, but it can be quite sexist. But it doesn't worry me personally all that much.

I do still like television very much, but the theatre does really have something special about it.

I don't know if you've ever tried writing a Doctor Who story, but it's a lot more difficult than it initially appears, especially if you've got more than one assistant.

I thought The Visitation was good fun. We did some of that filming at Ealing on the big set.

I'd like to do some more classical work if I do some more theatre.

Memories are like stones, time and distance erode them like acid.

Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.

You can close your eyes to reality but not to memories.

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.

A stone is ingrained with geological and historical memories.

People always complain about their memories, never about their minds.

Every passion borders on the chaotic, but the collector's passion borders on the chaos of memories.

What makes old age hard to bear is not the failing of one's faculties, mental and physical, but the burden of one's memories.

Many instances exist of small children who seem to remember and describe their previous life in another body, another place, and with other people. These memories emerge usually shortly after these children begin to talk.

I never go to funerals. To me a person is dead when he breathes for the last time. After that, your memories should be personal.

Those who have known the famous are publicly debriefed of their memories, knowing as their own dusk falls that they will only be remembered for remembering someone else.

He had to deal all at once with the packed regrets and stifled memories of an inarticulate lifetime.

The loneliness is when you pick up and move, even if you are not originally from that place, and you have some memories that you want to embrace. Having a life in transit, I feel like you are always looking out the back window.

I had the great good fortune to interview Peggy Lee. Her memories of working with Walt Disney and his team were warm and upbeat.

Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.

Memories are doing funny things to us.

When I recall today my early youth, I should take the boy that I then was, with the exception of a few individual features, for a different person, were it not for the existence of the chain of memories.
