Listening to the audio commentary on the The Legend of Hell House reveals a bit of a celebrity fan.

Pamela Franklin:

"I never did one. I always wanted to do a Dr. Who"

She remembers the Daleks and says she watched it often.

Always had a bit of a crush on Pamela, but I love her even more now

These things you say are what i've always thought. The season as a whole was really poor except Enlightenment.

I wanted the new Blu-ray set for the new extras but think i can wait for a standard edition rather than paying £55.
