One of the great interviews with Terry Molloy, who played Davros, has been updated

Currently we’re welcoming Davros back onto the screen, played superbly by Julian Bleach. Before that, Terry Molloy had made the part his own – on TV and in audio dramas.

Some time back, the BBC’s Martin Barber interviewed Terry Molloy – and the interview remains one of the best with Molloy, who is always interesting and passionate about his portrayal of Davros. This article has now been updated to reflect the return of Davros to our screens, so we thought it was worth bringing it to light again.

It’s a greater interview as Molloy has arguably a far better insight into the character of Davros than anyone. It’s a role he’s clearly invested in and one he enjoys.

Those who are enjoying the current Davros could do a lot worse than seek out the ‘I, Davros’ audio dramas which provide the back story to Davros’ earlier life – helping us to understand how he became the creature we see now. Molloy plays Davros brilliantly, and the series of four audio dramas are one of the best Davros stories from Big Finish.
