Doctor Who

by David J. Howe

A complete overview of this pivotal period in the history of the "Doctor Who" series. By 1980, "Doctor Who" was at its peak and the change from Tom Baker to Peter Davison did the programme no harm. However, the decade also saw the controversy of the Colin Baker wilderness years before Sylvester McCoy brought the character back to life. This book reveals unknown facts about the actors, the technical crew and the public reaction to the changes that were taking place.
