Product Description

Product Description

In Running Through Corridors, two Doctor Who lovers of old - Robert Shearman and Toby Hadoke - embark on an epic quest of friendship: spend the 'gap year' of 2009 (when Doctor Who consisted of a handful of specials rather than a full season) re-watching the whole of Who two episodes a day, every day, from the show's start in 1963 and ending with David Tennant's swan song on New Year's, 2010. This three-volume series contains Shearman and Hadoke's diary of that experience - a grand opus of their wry observations about the show, their desire to see the good in every story, and their chronicle of the real-life changes to Who in that year. With this book, Who fans will feel that they're watching along with Shearman (World Fantasy Award winner, Hugo Award nominee and writer on the new Doctor Who) and Hadoke (renowned stage performer for his one-man comedy show, 'Moths Ate My Doctor Who Scarf') as they make their 'grand journey' through the world's most wonderful and longest-running drama series.

After having loved those volumes of the About Time series pertaining to the first two decades of DW, I had wished to find something equally absorbing on the subject, and was happy to find it in this. But where those books sometimes read (albeit in a brilliant and hilarious way) as a list of faults, here the authors focus on the the positive - and this they do with considerable insight and obvious love for the show. One of those books you really want to give the authors a hearty "Thank you" for writing.

Run to Who 18 April 2011
By L. A. Hardy VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Rob Shearman is an entertaining writer, as is Toby Hadoke. Their somewhat insane plan to watch all of the episodes of Dr Who (lost or otherwise) right from the very beginning over the space of a year is lovingly chronicled episode per episode in this first volume, which covers the 1960s. Further decades will be covered in two future volumes.

As well as brief descriptions of the episodes watched, the vignettes cover impressions, recollections & occasional everyday flotsam and jetsam in an easy-going style. Unless you're a diehard Who fan, you won't have seen all of the episodes discussed, so probably the best way to approach this book is to read it bit by bit after watching the stories you can get hold of on DVD. You won't necessarily agree with either author, but you should enjoy wallowing in fandom with them.

Roll on the next two volumes...

memory lane 14 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
I bought this (not from amazon but will buy the next volume here) on a recommendation from a friend. It really is very enjoyable. I'm a big fan of all who era's but over the years my appreciation for the sixties stories has blossomed. I was always a fan of Troughton but now also love Hartnell as well so this episode by episode watch-a-thon by messers shearman and hadoke is wonderful. I love the fact that they try to be positive about things. I hate it when people just critise because *insert reason here* As a who fan i love the old and the new so really looking forward to the next volumes. Buy and enjoy the nostalga of two creative and ground-breaking eras.
