Cover blurb:
What happened when Doctor Who was put on trial by the Time Lords?

Why did he agree to help UNIT?

This fascinating book tells you everything about the Doctor and his adventures, the points in Space and Time he has visited, the aliens and monsters he has defeated.

One of the most famous and longest running BBC serials of all time, Doctor Who depends for its success on the enthusiasm of everyone working on the show.

Come inside the TV studio and meet them, learn how the Daleks and the Cybermen came into being and how the special effects work.

What happens in Doctor Who often seems impossible. But is it? Could it all be true?

Cover blurb:
Here it is... the story behind one of television’s most successful, longest-running shows. Come with DOCTOR WHO on a trip through time... to the early days of the programme when it all began... meet actors, authors and television staff... see inside a TV studio and watch a production take shape... learn the secrets of the monsters... relive every ‘Doctor Who’ story since the beginning... follow the Doctor through four incarnations and — perhaps — begin to discover just WHO is DOCTOR WHO?
