Product Description
About Time vol. 6 covers Seasons 22 to 26 of Doctor Who, focusing on the tenures of Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy, as well as the TV movie starring Paul McGann in mind-bending detail. In addition to the usual concerns such as the TV show s continuity (alien races, the Doctor s abilities, etc.) and lore (anecdotal, Did You Know?-style material), author Tat Wood will examine each Colin Baker, McCoy and McGann story in the context of the year/historical period it was produced, determining just how topical the stories were. Essays in this volume include: Is Continuity a Pointless Waste of Time?, Why are Elements so Weird in Space?, Why Do Time Lords Meet in Sequence?, Is There a Season 6B?, Did They Think We'd Buy Just Any Old Crap?, What Might the Other Season 23 Have Been Like?, Who Narrates This Programme?, How Warped was the Doctor's Mind?, How 'Good' is the Doctor?, The Valeyard, Er - How?, What's All This Stuff About Anoraks?m What are the Oddest Romances in the Programme's History?, The Semiotic Thickness of What?, When Did Susan Go to School?, What are the Gayest Things in Doctor Who, Did Cartmel Have Any Plan at All?, Could It Be Magic?, Where Does 'Canon' End?, What Were Josiah's Blasphemous Theories?, Are These 'gods' Related?, What About Season 27? and Does Paul McGann Count?

The end...or is it? December 1, 2008

This last volume of the books that examine the classical Doctor Who series is a must, as is all the books in the series. Sure, there are spelling mistakes and just plain mistakes, but they are few and far between. I loved the extra information - such as the chapters on Peter Cushing and the Daleks movies. I have those movies, so it is great fun to learn more about the behind the scenes and how the films were made.
The end of "classic who" brilliantly detailed and deconstructed July 16, 2008

Gayest Doctor Who moments. The Cartmel Plan. Etc., etc., etc. br / br /If you want a guidebook, or even just a set of essays and opinions, about the sixth and seven doctors episodes, then you need this book. Obsessive doesn't even begin to describe the coverage. Heck, get all of the "About Time" books for the complete Dr. Who fandom experience.
