Product Description

Rob Shearman, Scriptwriter on the 2005 series of Doctor Who
Fascinating and intelligent - a must for anyone who's ever considered the why of Who.

Book Description
Doctor Who is a television classic which returned to TV screens in 2005 in a freshly-minted new form. Russell T. Davies gave the show a contemporary refit while retaining all the traditional strengths, making it the TV event of the year. Stunning special effects, mature storytelling and great characters combine to make a thrilling ride through space and time, best viewed from behind the sofa.

'Back In Time' tells the story of Doctor Who, helping to identify why it is loved so much by so many, and exploring the recurring themes and ideas that underpin this most intelligent of popular science fiction shows.

Steve Couch, Tony Watkins and Peter S. Williams write extensively on popular culture from a Christian perspective and have all been avid Doctor Who viewers for as long as they can remember.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking, 5 May 2009
By Binro The Heretic "mattieboyz" (Hillsborough, Sheffield) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
An intriguing little book written to tie-in with the relaunch of the BBC's Time travelling drama series. The writers provide some interesting hypotheses and opinions, but this is probably not going to be for you if you're an atheist or think that there's no place for religion or faith in Doctor Who.

By Matt Talent "MT" (Dorset England) - See all my reviews
As A long time doctor who fan and christian i really enjoyed reading this book, it was very intresting to see how God relates to Doctor who. It is written in a very intresting and funny way. If you like this book i advised " Be More Like Jesus by watching T.V" also by top Authour Steve Couch

2.0 out of 5 stars Putting the 'fun' back into 'fundamentalism'..., 25 April 2006
Better than Cartmell's God-awful tome but pretty much a Trojan Horse for the 'intelligent design' lobby, this book drafts in the good Doctor's adventures to attempt to demonstrate that God is at work in the Doctor's Universe and therefore ours too.

Unfortunatley they forget that the real 'intelligent designers' of the Whonivers are not supernatural entities but the costume and prop designers listed in the credits.

Ray Cusick might have been a genius with a sink-plunger but he isn't God.

It seems to me that the authors have written a book about religion and thrown in some chunks of text about the good Doctor. Read more
