Trivia At 2:48 Sister Frances says that Sister Monica Joan is 'waiting for Doctor Who to start'. Doctor Turner treats a man called Mr. Percival, who is played by Peter Davison, who portrayed the fifth incarnation of the Doctor in Doctor Who (1963). Stephen McGann, who plays Doctor Turner, is also the brother of Paul McGann, who played the eighth Doctor. See more »
