In The Doctor Who File Peter Haining unlocks the secrets of the TARDIS memory banks and explores the history of this influential show through a series of fascinating interviews and specially commissioned articles. From pieces on the creation of the Cybermen, the difficulties in driving a Dalek, and the Doctor Who film that never was, to features on the show's writers — including Douglas Adams who went on to script The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy — and the first six Doctors, plus the actors who were very nearly selected to play the role. The Doctor Who File is a fascinating record of a unique phenomenon.
