Another Pirate's History of Doctor Who Paperback / softback
by D G Valdron
Part of the Doctor Who: Pirates's History series
Paperback / softback
Description
Welcome to the hidden histories of Doctor Who, the unauthorized, the ignored, the overlooked, the abandoned and the hidden.
This second volume chronicles the record of Doctor Who stage plays, official and independent, from Curse of the Daleks to the Trials of Davros, including the reviews of the recordings and documentaries about these plays.
It explores the bizarre copyright and legal structure underlying Doctor Who, that lead the BBC to discard two hundred classic episodes to the junk pile in the 70s, and that allowed fans to legally make their own movies in the Doctor Who universe in the 90s using everything but the Doctor himself.
And we'll look at many of these productions, from Colin Baker's 'The Stranger' series, to Downtime with the Brigadier, Sarah Jane, Victoria Waterfield (witht the original actors playing their original roles), as well as the Great Intelligence and the Yeti, to excursions with Sontarans and Rutans, Autons, Daemons and more.
We'll see how, despite the BBC's efforts, the fans managed to save every lost episode on Audio, were essential to the recover of over a hundred lost episodes on video, and the efforts to remake, reconstruct, and re-make lost adventures, including ones the BBC never actually filmed.
Chock full of reviews and articles, the Pirate Histories pull back the curtains and show you the places and things in the world of Doctor Who that you never imagined.
