Note: Due to the size of the book, this edition was split into two volumes — one for the First to Third Doctor and the second for the Fourth to Eighth, available separately (see below). The content was largely unchanged from the previous edition, apart from multiple minor updates & corrections. Cover blurb: Everything you ever wanted to know about the cult BBC Television series Doctor Who (1963-1996). On its first publication in 1998, The Television Companion was hailed as possibly the best guide ever to the BBC’s cult science fiction show Doctor Who. Now Telos re-issues their own edition of the book in a revised and updated version spanning two volumes, which remains the definitive guide to the television worlds and adventures of the Doctor and his companions. Every story from 1963 to 1996 is covered in depth in all aspects of production, including plot details, cast and crew lists, episode endings, transmission dates, memorable quotes and popular myths. In addition there is a comprehensive analysis of every adventure, utilising reviews both contemporary and retrospective from a wide variety of sources. This book is the essential companion for every trip you will ever take into the TV universe of Doctor Who. ‘The bible...’ SFX Magazine |
