Does anyone know what happened to Conrad Westmaas who played the Eighth Doctor's companion Crizz and many other characters in Big Finish Doctor Who audio plays? I've read that he left acting back in 2010 but does anyone know why or if he is still about in fandom at all? I think India fisher mentioned that she thought a lot of him and that if he hadn't been gay they might have hooked up or something or was she having a joke? JB

I saw him a couple of months ago at a DWm anniversary do. And the last time I interviewed him at a Tenth Planet event he was teaching some kind of yoga or something similarly wonderfully healthy. Lovely man. He and India *adore* each other. He's good mates with Lizzie Hopley too.

If they do C'rizz short trips, it would be lovely for him to come back or even a Companion Chronicle type thing with him and Charley or just ge3t Conrad to play another character in the Charley box sets

He's alive and well, living and working in Brighton. And he was over the moon at hearing C'rizz getting a mention in Night of the Doctor.
Lovely, lovely man.

I've been wanting a C'Rizz CC for soooo long, just to clear some of the fog from the DU arc.

I rather liked C'Rizz, Conrad Westmas is a great voice actor, personally I felt the backstory of C'Rizz was a bit muddled, and some of his storylines were hit and miss, but that doesn't negatively reflect on a great performance or the numerous good to great stories he was in. C'Rizz was on paper (as with much of the Divergent Universe arc) a very interesting idea, and I'd certainly be interested if BF were to ever revisit that period again, perhaps with a better idea of what worked and what didn't about that period.
I've long wanted to hear the 8/Lucie+ 8/Charley and C'Rizz story referenced in the 100 Days of the Doctor...

I think everyone adores India. I know everyone adores India. I'd say the same about Conrad. Two awesome people.

And, incidentally, a very Conrad Westmaas to all of you at home!
