Comments

The Chronic Rift is just one grand final adventure for the strongest Doctor ever portrayed in any fan produced series. Jeffrey Coburn really makes you believe he is the Doctor and wanted him to go out in as much dramatic fashion as possible. The Doctor has regenerated from saving simple worlds to saving the entire universe. In The Chronic Rift, the Doctor loses his life after saving every universe. I'm a big fan of the TV show Sliders and one of my favorite episodes of Doctor Who is Inferno. What I also like about this story is that Christine has a huge opportunity to act out on her own as Peri did in my favorite regeneration story, The Caves of Androzani.

I really enjoyed acting in The Chronic Rift. Playing the same part in two universes was a challenge. Trying to make the differences between the two characters subtle was the tricky part. Everyone did a great job here! Sheri's [Devine's] death scene was a real tear-jerker! I think some of the voices came out a little soft in the final product, but that could just be my lack of good sound equipment. I, of course, loved the ending. It's going to open up a whole new level for me. I just hope I'm up to it! I want to welcome back Jay [Smith]. It's been a while since he had joined us. I also want to welcome Leslye [Wintrob] to the team! All in all, a great story!
