Cover blurb: Doctor Who is the world’s longest-running science fiction television series, and has had children hiding behind sofas since it was first broadcast in 1963. Eleven actors have played the famous Time Lord, starting with William Hartnell, and it has been a career landmark for all of them. Indeed, no other role in television history is as iconic, demanding, or as anticipated by its legions of fans as that of the famous time traveller with two hearts. Find out:
All these bizarre facts are explained, and many more, as the lives and careers of each Doctor (including the latest — and youngest — Matt Smith) are put under the spotlight and given the credit they so richly deserve. Including interviews with many of the stars, this is a must have for any fan. Go back in time and read the human story behind a TV legend.

He spent five years as an in-house reporter at the House Journal of the Ministry of Defence, Focus, and has written 15 books as a biographer and historian.
