Product Description

Product Description

Reveals how Doctor Who is at its strongest when it reflects the political and cultural concerns of a mass British audience (as in the 1960s, 1970s and 21st century), and at its weakest when catering to a narrow, fan-based audience (as in the 1980s). Chapters range from discussions of the cultural and political relevance of Doctor Who monsters like the Daleks and the Cybermen, through to the show's treatment of themes like energy and the environment in the 1970s.

utterly facinating... 24 Jan 2012
By Emma B
Format:Kindle Edition
As a fan of Doctor Who and an ex media studies student, i found this book really facinatating. Although i knew most of the history, mine was only a perfunctory knowledge- this is really in depth, and facinating with it. It also goes outside of the tv history and covers the fan base and their impact on the series as a whole, which adds to some considerable influence. Covering the entire series from Hartnell to Moffet's current reign, i found this a really interesting, facinating read.
