Sadly, ...I'm looking forward to your programme. Sadly, it was another producer working on the original TV version of my docu 'Thirty Years in the Tardis' who went to Mary's house to interview her, whilst I was locked into the edit. But I spoke to her on the phone twice whilst re-editing the show for VHS the following year. Her husband answered, guardedly checking who I was. I gather she used to get many abusive calls. I treated her with respect and as she'd just retired I was checking how she wished to be credited; a courtesy she declared she was rarely afforded. I was never a supporter of hers, but I wish I'd met her. I found her book 'Mary Quite, Contrary' a fascinating read.
