Over the years, Doctor Who has handled the physical transition of its lead actor in a variety of ways. Peter Davison bowed out in technicolour nightmare of floating faces while Patrick Troughton exited into a visual effect, with his successor not actually glimpsed onscreen until the following story. In fact, only recently has the process become a standardised, upright affair with the Time Lord suffering a volcanic eruption of golden light.
‘Last of the Gaderene’ represents the Third Doctor adventure in BBC Books’ Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Collection. Written by Mark Gatiss in 2000, before his career as a screenwriter for the new series, it remains his most recent Who story in prose.
To celebrate Silva Screen’s release of classic Doctor Who soundtrack ‘The Krotons’, we’ve got copies of the album to give away to five of our Twitter followers!
‘Dreams of Empire’ is the second entry in BBC Books’ Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Collection. Written by Justin Richards, a long time contributor and creative consultant for the range, it features Patrick Troughton’s Doctor alongside companions Jamie and Victoria, pitching it in the earlier part of his tenure.
Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman’s new Doctor Who adventures continue next weekend with ‘Nightmare in Silver’, written by Neil Gaiman.
This is pretty gruesome stuff in places and certainly the kind of broader territory that Doctor Who could only tackle in expanded media.
Royal Mail has announced plans to celebrate Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary a special set of stamps next year.
Starring Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and Jon Hamm (Mad Men), the latest instalment of Sky Arts’ acclaimed Playhouse Presents strand, A Young Doctor’s Notebook, begins next month.
Sky have announced that A Young Doctor’s Notebook will begin on Sky Arts 1 in December.
