After two years of doing one show, you do get attached to everyone.

Before I got Doctor Who, I went to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I went back to take the final grade exam, which is the grade you have to take before you can take the teacher's diploma.
Sarah Sutton

Doctor Who is like any long-running series in that the cast tend to look to the star to set the general tone. Rehearsals and filming could be a lot of fun.
Sarah Sutton

I do still like television very much, but the theatre does really have something special about it.
Sarah Sutton

I don't know if you've ever tried writing a Doctor Who story, but it's a lot more difficult than it initially appears, especially if you've got more than one assistant.
Sarah Sutton

I don't think I would have stayed for the second season if I hadn't been happy.
Sarah Sutton

I enjoyed showing a bit more leg in the last few stories. It was good fun, but it can be quite sexist. But it doesn't worry me personally all that much.
Sarah Sutton

I enjoyed working with Peter, I was very pleased when I heard he was going to be the Doctor.
Sarah Sutton

I found it a little bit stressful, because I wasn't used to working with Doctor Who. I got the impression I'd walked into the end of seven years and it was all a bit tense.
Sarah Sutton

I got very fit that week with all the running around that we di. I was always last, because I can't run as fast as everyone else. I'm useless at running.
Sarah Sutton


I like the stories with the historical themes.
Sarah Sutton

I love photography. My boyfriend's got a great camera, which I bought for his birthday.
Sarah Sutton

I often look at a lot of Doctor Who stuff that's about now, which no one has approached me about.
Sarah Sutton

I think I must have too much to eat, we were doing a scene where we were crawling, and I ripped my trousers. I was very embarrassed. I was sown in, stitched in, quickly!
Sarah Sutton

I thought The Visitation was good fun. We did some of that filming at Ealing on the big set.
Sarah Sutton

I went to ballet school for nine years, and there was an agent for the whole school who happened to be there visiting one of the performances. She suggested an audition.
Sarah Sutton

I would like to direct. What goes on behind stage is very interesting.
Sarah Sutton

I'd like to do some more classical work if I do some more theatre.
Sarah Sutton

I'm a terrible person for carrying things around. I carry everything around with me, it's like my home.
Sarah Sutton

I'm not really a science-fiction fan, I quite like the idea of getting away from the science-fiction side of it, for two episodes. It was lovely, it was a super story and great fun.
