David Howe and Co have produced a great book of tv journalism. The sixties was only a short time ago, but in terms of tv techniques it was a millenium ago. Howe and Co have done an amazing job of in-depth research to show how tv in general, and Doctor Who in particular, was made in those days.

Surprised this has so few reviews. Theoretically outdated now, given most of the information is online or on the new Blu-Ray sets, this is still an exquisite volume, bulging with facts and exquisite photographs. One can only imagine the excitement for fans of the time to track down such well-researched and detailed information.

Still a great read after all these years. "My" doctor was Patrick Troughton and it's such a shame so many of his stories were lost. Still the audio survived and this is great to ramble through while listening to the audios.

Excellent research source in regards to the early days of the original Doctor Who British TV Series, that all Who fans should read. Background material of early episodes.
