Description:  CD compilation of three Doctor Who BBC radio documentaries all broadcast as part of the show’s 60th anniversary celebrations in 2023: Who Are We: The Classic Years and Who Are We: The Modern Era, both presented by Jo Whiley, and Surviving Doctor Who, presented by Toby Hadoke.

Cover blurb:
Six decades of BBC TV’s most successful sci-fi series are celebrated in this collection of radio programmes

In Who Are We: The Classic Years and The Modern Years, first broadcast on BBC Radio 2, Jo Whiley takes a trip through the Whoniverse to find out how the changing attitudes of Britain have been reflected through the TARDIS’s travels. It’s a tale that features Dalekmania, Dad’s Army, Mary Whitehouse, Ridley Scott, Cybermen and the JFK assassination.

Jo also learns how Doctor Who thrived during the wilderness years of the show’s cancellation, with fandom playing a vital role in its return.

Along the way Jo is joined by fans, stars and writers of Doctor Who including Russell T Davies, Steven Moffat and Chris Chibnall. There are also archive interviews with David Tennant, Jodie Whittaker, Peter Capaldi, Matt Smith, Christopher Eccleston, Billie Piper, Kylie Minogue, Patrick Troughton and many more.

Meanwhile in Surviving Doctor Who, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 Extra, Toby Hadoke presents a wry insight into the ups and downs of being one of the universe’s most misunderstood species: the Doctor Who fan.
