Cover blurb: Damn you, Burk and Smith?. I have just lost four hours to your blasted book. And I only meant to glance at it. It is nightmarishly more-ish. —Neil Gaiman, award-winning author of American Gods, The Sandman and Coraline “Affectionate and incisive, this guide to all new Who has the same wit and heart as the series itself — not to mention the odd moment that may provoke a “What? What? WHAT?” — Robert Shearman, Doctor Who writer (“Dalek”) and World Fantasy Award-winning author There is something so special about Doctor Who. The show that put kids behind couches made lifelong fans of us all. This great “companion” helps us navigate the deepest levels of the amazing Russell T Davies/Stephen Moffat reimagining of one of the greatest series of all time. Who is your Doctor? — Mark Sheppard, actor (Canton Delaware III on Doctor Who) An incisive, unpretentious, eminently readable commentary on the first seven years of new Who. The authors’ easy but lively discourse makes for a thought-provoking dialectic — a joyful celebration of fan love. Unofficial episode guides don’t come much more engaging than this. — Benjamin Cook, writer for Doctor Who Magazine Doctor Who is the television program that’s bigger on the inside. It’s no wonder that, after five decades on the air, the Doctor, TARDIS and his enemies are icons of British culture. Who Is The Doctor is a fun and insightful guide to Doctor Who’s triumphant return to television in 2005. Doctor Who experts Graeme Burk and Robert Smith? bring insights into everything about the New Series, including: - an in-depth assessment of every episode of the first six seasons of the New Series, examining each story’s place in Doctor Who history, the characters and the ongoing story arcs, along with trivia, nitpicks and thoughtful, irreverent reviews

- sidebars on the writers, creators, actors and spinoffs such as Torchwood, the theme music, the sonic screwdriver and more
