An evening with Nicola Bryant

In 1984 Nicola Bryant joined Doctor Who straight from drama school to play one of the most popular of all the Doctor's companions, American botany student Perpugilliam 'Peri' Brown.

A packed Voicebox audience falls under the spell of Nicola's charm as in a relaxed conversation with Gary Finney, she discusses her career, including how she won the role of Peri; how she successfully convinced producer, directors, fellow cast members and fans alike that she was a genuine American; the pitfalls of being forced to conceal the fact of her marriage; her pride in the brave direction that the show took after the arrival of Colin Baker's Sixth Doctor and her disquiet at the somewhat confusing plotline that saw her leave the show.
