Cover blurb:
“They may look like amateurs, but that man has an incredible knack of being one jump ahead of everyone."

As Britain basked in the swinging sixties, television discovered the spy-fi genre and the country entered the modern age of the white heat of technology. Doctor Who did its level best to keep pace with developments. Boasting a new military force working for the United Nations, the return of both an old friend and an old enemy, and a trip to modern day London, The Invasion was both a reflection of current TV programming and a template for the future of the show. Stephen Hatcher examines the environment in which it was created, and considers the markers it laid down for the new era it launched.

Stephen Hatcher is a retired teacher of Modern Languages who has been coordinator of the Whoovers Doctor Who fan group since 2001, and organiser of the Whooverville convention since its inception in 2009.

“A grandly ambitious thing to attempt with something as exhaustively detailed as (Doctor Who). But they actually manage it. Treat your bookshelf."
