Career
Early appearances
The Monocled Mutineer
McGann's first major role was the infamous British deserter and criminal Percy Toplis in the 1986 BBC serial The Monocled Mutineer. Francis Percy Toplis ( August 22, 1896 &ndash June 6, 1920) was a British Criminal and Imposter during World War I The Monocled Mutineer is a British television programme made by the BBC in 1986 and shown on BBC1, the first The film was based on the 1978 book of the same name, which was written by William Alison and John Fairley.
Although McGann received praises for his dramatic performance, the drama was never re-broadcast on the BBC. This is because the BBC came under fire from the Conservative Government due to the sensitivity of the subject matter of the Étaples Mutiny at "The Bull Ring", a harsh British Army training ground in Étaples, France. The Conservative Party (officially the Conservative and Unionist Party) is a Political party in the United Kingdom. The Étaples Mutiny was a Mutiny by British Empire troops in France, during the First World War. The British Army is the land armed forces branch of the British Armed Forces. Étaples or Étaples-sur-Mer ( Dutch: Stapel) is a commune and the chief town of a canton, in the arrondissement This article is about the country For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic France topics. The events that transpired at the Bull Ring remain debated, and documents concerning the occurrences there will remain sealed until 2017. They claimed that the film was inaccurate and displayed a "Left-wing bias". Toplis was a mysterious figure and the film, as well as the book, depicted him as an active participant of the Etaples Mutiny, before he was tracked down and killed some years after the end of World War I. World War I (abbreviated WWI; also known as the First World War, the Great War, and the War to End All As a result, a minor political crisis in Britain was launched which prompted the BBC to remove all planned repeat screenings of the film. Despite the banning controversy, The Monocled Mutineer was released by the BBC on video in the early 1990s, and on DVD in 2007.

Although McGann played the Doctor on television only once, he gave permission for his likeness to be used on the covers of the BBC's Eighth Doctor novels and he has reprised the role of the Eighth Doctor in an extensive series of audio plays by Big Finish Productions.
