It must have been nerve-wrecking as well as exciting for him to do playing Adric in the series.įrom reading Matthew’s book ‘Blue Box Boy’, his hopes and dreams of working with Tom Baker, his favourite Doctor, were shattered by the time he worked with him on set. Matthew Waterhouse recorded ‘State of Decay’ first before doing ‘Full Circle’. It’s interesting that ‘State of Decay’ was recorded second in the production slot for Season 18 after ‘The Leisure Hive’ was made. Whist fans are divided over Adric, I do like his character and there are times when Adric can have his moments, especially he’s not seemingly useless all the time.

It’s always nice to have chats with Matthew about his experiences of ‘Doctor Who’ and what he makes of the current series nowadays. I enjoyed hearing from Matthew on how he considers ‘State of Decay’, ‘The Keeper of Traken’, ‘Kinda’and ‘The Visitation’to be his favourite stories from the series. I’ve had the DVD cover of ‘State of Decay’ signed by Matthew Waterhouse at the ‘London Film and Comic Con 2017’, Olympia, July 2017.
Can the Doctor and Romana with Adric and K-9 stop the evils of the Three Who Rule and the Great Vampire? They want to consume other worlds teaming with blood. They also want to rise up into the sky to escape out of E-Space too. The planet is under the rule of three vampires that want blood. As the Doctor and Romana discover clues about vampire bats and vampirism, things are getting clearer. They meet the villagers who are scared out of their wits by their rulers. Upon arrival, the Doctor and Romana discover that the planet they’ve visited is in a ‘state of decay’ (hence the story’s title). It’s interesting to see the Doctor and Romana at this stage in their travels when trying to get out of E-Space whilst also having adventures. In this story, the Doctor and Romana visit an alien planet whilst journeying through E-Space in order to escape and find a way back into their home universe. It’s also one of a few ‘Doctor Who’ stories to echo Tom Baker at his best in his era and didn’t have much scientific sombreness as most tales of this season.

It’s a gothic adventure, full of blood-curdling proportions. ‘State of Decay’ is the second ‘Doctor Who’ story of ‘The E-Space Trilogy’ in Season 18. Tim Bradley with Matthew Waterhouse at the ‘London Film & Comic Con’, Olympia, July 2017
