The Doctor and Davros face off in panto

25 June 2007

Sixth Doctor Colin Baker faces Terry Molly (Davros in the classic series of Doctor Who) in panto at Christmas.

Actors Colin Baker and Terry Molloy are to appear in the pantomime Dick Wittington this Christmas at the Norwich Theatre Royal. This time around, though, Colin Baker plays the baddie (the Rat King) while Terry Molloy plays the good Alderman Fitzwarren and the Sultan.

Colin Baker is well known for his role as the sixth Doctor and Terry Molloy for portraying Davros on television, stage and in audio adventures. Both are frequent (and warmly welcomed) visitors on the Doctor Who fan circuit.

Dick Whittington runs at the Norwich Theatre Royal from Wednesday, 19 December, 2007 to Sunday, 20 January, 2008.
