Wanda Ventham Interview on "Blood Beast Terror" DVD

Hi all,

I just got the recently released "Blood Beast Terror" DVD
(UK release). While the movie isn't great, and the quality
of the picture is VHS-grade, there is one special thing
about it that made my buy it -- a new interview with
Wanda Ventham. In it, she talks about this movie,
plus her 3 appearance in Dr. Who, plus Captain Kronos,
*plus* UFO -- she talks about how she got the part on
UFO, how she replaced Freeman, and how TIMELASH was
written specifically to highlight her character, etc.
She also talks about going to Italy for a UFO convention,
and when the interviewer asks her about her all-time
favorite part, she said it was on UFO (!)

Good to have an interview where you actually *see*
her, as opposed to the TIMELASH commentary track
where you can only hear her...

menu, no chapter stops, movie starts playing immediately..

Hi Marc,
Is Wanda referring to the convention we at ISOSHADO had back in 2002?

Yes, I was referring to the new UK release.

Even the reviews of the DVD refer to her comments about UFO:
