Who doesn’t love Bert Large?
What a pleasure it was to hang out with Ian. And the stories he tells… well, we could have listened for hours.
Especially the one about how the cast found out about the new seasons that would be commissioned by ITV. To have been a fly on the wall for that moment…
It’s funny, listening back to this a week later, it’s such a mellow interview. Ian had just arrived from the airport so we wanted to be sure he could simply kick back and have a chat with us. (Thank goodness Linda had some tea tucked away at her place!) He definitely set the relaxed tone. Ian’s a pro. He knows how to do these interviews so well.
We talked about working with Joe Absolom, John Marquez, and Martin; about getting that accent just right; his hopes for the next season and so much more.
Another BIG THANK YOU to Ian for taking time out of his VERY busy visit to LA to talk to Rock the Doc. We hope to have Ian on the show again…maybe next time with Joe? How much fun would that be?!
Enjoy the interview with Portwenn's favorite entrepreneur!
*SPOILER ALERT* There are a few references to Series 7 in this interview.

Ian will be back in the LA area on Valentine’s weekend for the:
Gallifrey One - 27th Annual North American Doctor Who Celebration

Linda and Karen what a great show! An was so at ease with you and his stories just were great. Well done. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment, Carole! He really was so easy to talk to and he's such a pro! We could have listened to his stories for hours.
DeleteThank you for this wonderful interview with Ian; he's such a joy and his stories are so engaging.
ReplyDeletePlease though, stop calling Joe Penhale "P.C." - that's not his name. He's usually referred to in the show as Penhale (with the accent on the second syllable) or Joe or, if you're the Doc, "idiot".
Look forward to listening to your previous podcasts and all future ones. thank you.
Hello! And thank you for commenting! I have to say, it's sometimes hard to call PC Penhale anything but PC when we're chatting. But I promise the more you listen the more you'll hear us call him all of those at different times...even within the same podcast! Thank you for listening! Enjoy whichever episodes you dive into!
