This is about an evolving narrative over forty years. This book is the first in a series that chronicles, analyses and reviews all of Doctor Who episode-by-episode, as it should have been watched. This is Volume Three, chronicling the years 1970 to 1974 when Jon Pertwee played the Doctor

Everybody watches Doctor Who the wrong way. Ever since the widespread availability of video cassette recorders and their subsequently more advanced offspring, fans of the show have been able to watch Doctor Who whenever they want and in whatever order they want.

Nice find Boz. Loved the Troughton era. Some generally poor reviews of these books indicating them to be an amateur blog from a fan. Seems like despite some evident bias from the author they do contain many interesting facts, so definitely a worthy freebie.

The Pertwee book faired better in the reviews but I always thought Troughton was the better Doctor. :smile:

The premise of this book is nonsense. The idea that Doctor Who was an 'evolving narrative over forty years' is ridiculous. It was written on a week-by-week basis, and there was barely any character development apart from 'companion arrives, companion leaves so that's sad, rinse and repeat'.
