> “The misgivings I had about doing conventions were pretty general honestly, just like any shy performer - I think Chris [Eccleston] was the same. For years, like me, Chris had resisted. He said the same things as I used to say, ‘Why would I want to do that?’ – I caught up with him during the lunch break on his first day [of a convention], and I asked him, ‘How is it, how do you feel?’ and he just beamed. He said, ‘I love it. What was I scared for?’.”

D'awwwww.

It good to hear Eccleston feeling better about his time with Doctor Who, even if he still has problems with people from the production side. He is the first Doctor to so many people now, and while David followed him and basically became the doctor to rival Tom Baker, Eccleston was, for lack of a better word, fantastic.
