Doctor Who: The Inside Story

As a fan of the old BBC series Doctor Who, I was a little worried when it was announced a couple years ago the show was being revived. It’s hard to follow up on a classic. As it turns out, though, the new series is fantastic. At turns it’s light and humorous, emotionally engaging, and infused with the classic science fiction idealism and themes that made shows like the original Doctor Who, X Files, and The Twilight Zone resonate with their audiences.

This book offers a behind-the-scenes look at the new series, from a look at the writer, Russel Davies, who has driven the series, to the casting that has worked out so well and the sets in Wales. It’s a book that fans of the show will likely find useful.
