Quotes

  • Julian: (on the Fourth Doctor): He had an eccentric, Harpo Marx quality about him and as far as I remember he was the only Doctor to ever threaten anyone with a jelly baby.
  • Julian: (on his character Davros in Doctor Who): Davros is a fantastic character - a cross between Hitler and Stephen Hawking. A powerful intellect. It's what he wants that makes him extraordinary - the fact that he has such nihilistic desires. Such a need for power. The first day was extraordinary. It felt so familiar because I knew this character, this Dalek world and everything from my childhood, that's so deep in my memory. But so strange as well, to be suddenly plunged into the middle of it.
  • Julian: That's Davros's ultimate ambition. After wiping out all life in the universe, he wants to host The National Lottery.
