Publisher's summary
- Do you know what was playing on Cassandra's iPod?
- What was the name of Shakespeare's lost play?
- Where were the Slitheen planning to hide a tribophysical waveform macro-kinetic extrapolator?
There's no need to search time and space – it's all right here. From Autons to Anne Droid, from Cat Nuns to Canary Wharf, from the moon to The Master... everything you need to know about everything you didn’t know you needed to know about Doctor Who.
Subject matter
- A definitive guide to every reference from Doctor Who DW: Rose (TV story) right up to DW: Last of the Time Lords.
Notable features
- 1,700 entries and 90,000 words
- Gary Russell’s introduction includes a list of possible entries for a second edition, most likely teases as they are deemed worthy of inclusion.
Notes
- In Doctor Who Magazine Issue 388, Russell T. Davies in his regular page discusses the entry Cruciform. Gary had assumed from the Master’s words “ I was there when the Dalek Emperor took control of the Cruciform” that it had occurred on Gallifrey because of the context. Russell T. Davies was clear in his own mind that it wasn’t, that the Cruciform was “more terrible than I can say, of a scale and ferocity that’s absolutely untransmittable on prime-time”, a larger part of the “disgusting, horrific, temporal hell” that was the Time War. As the encyclopedia has a status as an official BBC books, sanctioned by the production office the proposed entry would have become a fact, with its Gallifreyian reference. The entry was amended by Gary, leaving further scope for expansion of the Cruciform at some stage.
- This non-jacketed hardback with a photographic cover was priced £14.99 (UK).
