If you won the Comic Relief Breakfast with the Doctors, what questions would you ask?
I'd ask Paul McGann how he was cast as two different characters in Disney's The Three Musketeers?

Do any of you have any available daughters of marrying age that I could propose to?

I'd ask McGann if he ever (as rumoured) auditioned for the role of James Bond. According to Wikipedia (yeah, I know), he tested in 1994 and might have had the role if Brosnan turned it down: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_actors_considered_for_the_James_Bond_characterI would love to hear about the audition. I'm honestly surprised no one asks McGann about this in interviews or at the convention Q&As. As for Tom Baker, I would ask if he has fond memories of working on the Amicus omnibus film VAULT OF HORROR (a favorite of mine). |

Well, I'd ask McGann where does he think he'd be if he hadn't broken his leg back when he was cast as Sharpe?

I love Sean Bean but I do wish we'd seen that alternate McGann Sharpe though it would have changed both of their careers massively. Especially in the earlier eps it was terrific stuff. Michael Cochrane was the perfect recurring foil as Simmerson. With him and Hugh Ross doing plenty of BF, and Hugh Fraser in the 4DAs last year, there's a wee Sharpe alumni troupe on audio.  |

I'd be quite dull with my questions I think and regret it afterwards. I think faced with all those guys I'd be very, very self-conscious.  I'd probably end up thanking more than asking. |

4 - What's your favourite jelly baby?
5 - Do you actually like celery or was it torturous to have it attached to your costume for the entirety of your era?
6 - Have you ever seen Joseph And His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat?
7 - If asked, would you agree to a Scot-Off with Peter Capaldi in Doctor Who?
8 - Was kissing Daphne Ashbrook fun?
10 - When will you record more Big Finish?
11 - Will you return as the Doctor via Big Finish?
12 - Do you think there's much chance of you regenerating into Hayley Atwell?

From memory, he spat it out after taking a chunk in Castrovalva. Can someone affirm or deny that for me? I think I heard that on the DVD commentary. |

I guess I'd probably ask what their most memorable moment on set or behind the scenes was - not just limited to Doctor Who. Other than that, I'd probably make a mess of myself and feel ashamed to show my face in public ever again.

I don't have the DVD, though, so I can't definitively confirm or deny it. I also seem to remember there's an outtake out there that shows him spitting the celery out immediately after the scene was over. Might be an overactive imagination, though. |

Dream roles, who they think the next Doc should/might be, biggest regrets/successes when starting out, might want to talk writing with Colin and the Peters and any others who might dabble in writing.
Although honestly having seven of them there all at once would be almost too stressful to enjoy - I'd be worried I didn't have enough time to chat with all of them!
I'm tempted to say I'd rather have breakfast with one or two Doctors than seven.

I think I'd probably ask the dream role question, but I would probably spend most of the time trying not to embarrass myself. And listening to all their wonderful stories.

I would simply request 'Gentlemen, please tell your finest tales of Who.'
Then eat my full English in enthralled silence while seven earthly Doctors bounced their filming memories back and forth.

I may be making it up, but I generally recall hearing something along the same lines. They basically told him he had to wear the thing because they wanted him to look more visually quirky, a trend they continued until the end. |

He spits it out as soon as someone shouts "cut". |

In as much as they know of them are there any stories starring their fellow Doctors that they wish they had done?
