$30 · Doctor Who: The Early Years

ISBN 0-491-03612-4 A fresh perspective on the early years of Doctor Who. Covers the origin of the TV show, the actors and creators involved. It takes us back to a time when science ficiton television held enough charm for children without worrying about the reactions of adult viewers who (at that time) only worried about how "scary" the show may be at time. Since Dr. Who has been an institution in England, we forget how much of a risk the show was back in the day it was first conceived and how no one knew what a phenomenon it would become. This book brings that feeling back.
