Behind the Scenes with John Barrowman
![]()
First, there was the new Doctor Who. Next came Doctor Who Confidential, the behind the scenes informational show that tells you all sorts of things about different aspects of our favorite show. Not too long afterwards, Totally Doctor Who appeared. Totally Doctor Who is more of a kid-targeted version of Doctor Who Confidential, that has not yet been shown in the US. They have special guests, run entertaining contests and competitions, and have special access to the filming of Doctor Who. Their studio is right next door to the Doctor Who studio, as we learned in the second series of the show. That must come in handy with everyone’s schedule being so tight. (If you would like to see more of Totally Doctor Who, you might do a search on YouTube. They’ve been known to have an episode or two. I’m just saying…)
In the video I have for you this week, you get to spend some time on the set with Captain Jack Harkness. During the filming of “The Sound of Drums” Totally Doctor Who got to follow John Barrowman around for the day. (Excuse me, but where do I sign up for that job?) He showed off his trailer, did a bit of filming, and chatted with the Totally Doctor Who camera. Neither of the presenters were on the scene as far as I could tell, but it’s a nice little peek into the sorts of things that go on behind the scenes. After the section with John, the video goes on to show the “Sneak Peek” at “Last of the Time Lords.” Enjoy!

Ahh yes! I love the “cake” squeal in this one.

Me too. I imagine that the two of them are right terrors together.
