REVIEW COMMENTS
'Just excellent in every way. Beautifully researched, a wealth of information. Charting the highs and at times very lows of 1980's Doctor Who.' Russ, Amazon Review
'Compellingly written, a potentially dry subject becomes a fascinating insight into the changing television production methods employed by the BBC in the 1980s and into the complex – and ultimately tragic – life of BBC staff producer John Nathan-Turner.' Eddie, Amazon Review
'It is so insightful … I have learnt what went on during the time when the BBC lost confidence in the show.
Brilliant read.' David Havers, Amazon Review
