    I saw this serie in the Netherlands as an 18 year.old...i always rememberred it for its great acting...the tension between them was unbelievable..Colin Baker played here the type of banker we only got to know in the 80s..ahead of his time..this still could be a success if they broadcast it again!

      It's a blast from the past all right. MGB-GT's, XJ6's and a Reliant Scimitar pops up. Not to overlook the trucks; Bedford, Seddon-Atkinson, Leyland etc

      The series producer even told him to tone it down because he was overshadowing Peter.

      @@DarksaberForce It helped Colin win the role of the Doctor. The event that sealed the deal was when he and John Nathan Turner went to the wedding of a woman on the staff. Colin's charisma at that wedding, on top of his performance as Maxil, convinced John that he was the perfect choice for the Doctor. And John was right. Colin could have been a formidable contender for the title of Greatest Doctor Of All Time. The problem was that shitstains like Michael Grade were deliberately sabotaging the show.

    OK, I'm afraid I just can't believe that. I'm 25 and I have a baby face. And I look older than Colin does here. Seriously, he was 32? And fans ridiculed Matt for looking so young.

    @Berrypoint Yep, the D.W. heads REALLY should have gone with the black velvet suit like Colin suggested, BUT NNOOO, they wanted the "explosion in a rainbow factory" suit as it is called. I take comfort in that "Real Time" and most Big Finish episodes the 6th Doctor has a LOVELY blue suit instead.

    Yeah man, check out his age on google, and this was in 1975. He's 32. I look about the same age as him here and i'm 32. I always get asked for I.D at clubs.

      I remember him being interviewed in a documentary series about 1970's TV which included an episode devoted to The Brothers (which was a hugely popular Sunday night show in the mid-1970's and a great favourite of my family). He admitted that he nailed the odious Paul Merroney's character to the extent that devoted fans of the show would stop him in the street and hurl verbal abuse at him, also winding down their car window at traffic lights, yelling at him and telling him exactly where to go! The character's introduction really shook up the story line, and he was one of those characters that you just loved to hate! Incidentally, Talking Pictures TV in the UK is currently showing "The Brothers" on Thursday evenings at 8pm, but we are only on the first season, so still some way off Merroney's introduction.
