About this listen

In January 2014, Tom Baker celebrated his 80th birthday. In March 2014, Tom sat down with Nicholas Briggs to look back over his 80 amazing years - his youth, his early acting career, his great success with Doctor Who and beyond...and his return to his most famous role with Big Finish.

This candid and intimate interview forms two fascinating hours of engaging entertainment in the unique company of Mr. Baker.

This is an enjoyable listen. Tom recounts some of his past in an amusing way. Toms autobiography “who on Earth is Tom Baker” is a title to seek out. Probably the best autobiography I have listened to, but does not appear on Audible as of date. Hopefully they will offer it soon!

The Wonderful Tom Baker!

Loved it this from begining to end.
Great voice acting by Sir Tom and a story that both brings memories of old Dr Who with tales that could be done today.
Oh and that last piece on Sarah Jane, wonderful...sob.

Loved it!

Thought I’d picked Tom’s autobiography ‘Who on earth is TomBaker’ but was delighted with this nonetheless. Tom was my favourite ‘Doctor’ and turns out one of my favourite personalities too !
I enjoyed the revelations shared and liked Nicholas insightful ‘diggings’ to get us closer to Tom’s life experience and inner space. I absolutely love Tom’s roguishness although it’s interesting to see how he is always evolving in his nature and outlook. I count myself very blessed to have been born into the same era as this special man that I could be inspired by him.
Do yourself a favour,switch off and switch on to a bit of Tom!!!

Brilliant! Funny, and interesting. He was obviously having a lot of fun reminiscing about his time in Dr Who and on stage. Simply Sacre bleu!

The Doctor!

To hear about Tom Baker's life, against the never-ending flow of life ebbing away.
There will never be another one like this again. This is a must listen for any Tom Baker fan as he recollects memories from his life.

Interesting but sad...
