I think, at the end of the day, reading his book and seeing him in interviews, while he was devastated at the time, Matthew now actually has more respect for Tom than for any of his Davison era co-stars. "Tom is not a fake!" he says. For at least he knew where he stood with Tom, who told him to piss off in a bad moment, whereas his later co-workers clearly wanted to tell him to piss off all the time, but were nice to his face (and during the commentaries). but continue to sneer at him in interviews about his perceived shortcomings to this day.
Matthew's autobiography is a very interesting read.Lalla Ward comes off as pretty snobby and dreadful to be around at times. Some poor photographer was trying to take pictures on the set for a FULL CIRCLE viewmaster slideshow and she complained loudly in front of him and the whole cast and crew about "this awful little man" following her. She has nothing nice to say about Matthew either to this day.
Intriguingly, Matthew has written it in the third person, his logic being that he was so young that it was literally a different person then, so has enough distance to talk about "Matthew did this or that", rather than I. This baffled some reviewers, but I can see his logic.
