Are you enjoying the prospect of becoming a cartoon character?

It's great - I've never been an animated figure. I'm really looking forward to seeing what it looks like. I haven't got any idea at the moment, but it will be interesting to see.

The doctor doesn't really say a great deal, and tends to get killed an awful lot - I think he gets killed twice in this story. So it's mainly a, 'My god, ugh,' kind of thing. There's not much scope for characterisation, but it's going to be interesting to see what they do with the other characters, because the other characters are really very well drawn and it will be nice to see them in the flesh.

Any tips for the animators, any bits you'd like accentuated in your cartoon image?

No, I think my natural werewolf-like qualities will be sufficient. I'm sure they'll be able to get an awful lot of inspiration from the fact that I look like a hairy mess.
