Since then she's found a whole new audio life through plays for Big Finish.Bernice (Benny) is played by Lisa Bowerman, an actor and director from TV and stage, including the last ever Classic Doctor Who story, Survival.British acting hero David Warner reprises his "unbound" Doctor, a character created in a series of "what if..." Doctor Who dramas from Big Finish. The Master being played by Sam Kisgart is an in-joke from the TV series and earlier Unbound stories, being an anagram of the real actor, Mark Gatiss (The League of Gentlemen, Sherlock, Doctor Who, and many, many more).
