Frazer Hines Added to Time Eddy Line-up!

Josh Maxton is a writer at Kasterborous Doctor Who News and Reviews - All the latest Doctor Who news and reviews with our weekly podKast, features and interviews, and a long-running forum.

Earlier this week, we shared that an additional guest would be announced for the Time Eddy convention (October 2nd to 4th) of Wichita, Kansas, and now it is confirmed: Ladies and gentlemen, former companion Frazer Hines (Jamie McCrimmon) is coming to Kansas!

Frazer Hines, now voicing Jamie and the Second Doctor for Big Finish, remains a beloved actor to many Whovians. Kieran Kinsella (showrunner of Time Eddy) was more than excited when he revealed the additional guest over Facebook:

“…I am delighted to announce our final guest for Time Eddy. Having appeared in 117 episodes, he is the most prolific companion in Doctor Who history. He is also a huge UK soap star, a funny guy, and a fan favorite. He will also be a great addition to photo opps featuring Deborah Watling and Bill Breuer. Ladies and Gentlemen; Frazer Hines”

Frazer Hines will be joining a wonderful line-up of guests for the convention, including Colin Baker (the Sixth Doctor), Nicola Bryant (Peri Brown), Peter Purves (Steven Taylor), and Ellis George (Courtney Woods). For a few of Time Eddy’s guests, this will be their first time coming to Kansas. In our exclusive interview with Kieran, he explained that they had virtually no issues getting the celebrities to come:

“What we found out is there weren’t really any issues with getting the guests to come out; that side of things was pretty easy. Everyone thinks there would be issues though. I think they liked the sheer novelty of Kansas. What I mean is, everyone with the exception of Daphne Ashbrook is English – and, I think, pretty much ever since they started having TV in the UK, they’ve shown the Wizard of Oz every year at Christmas. So pretty much everyone from 80 years down has the Wizard of Oz ingrained in their heads!”
