In this eighth month of Doctor Who: The Doctors Revisited we take a look at eighth Doctor, Paul McGann, who was a part of an American attempt by FOX to reboot the series in 1996 via TV movie. Keep in mind that the Doctor hadn’t graced the screens of our televisions since 1989 and wouldn’t do so again until 2005.

It starts with the regeneration of the seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) and is self-contained, without a major cliffhanger.
