Articles

• Season Three Flashback - every season of Doctor Who has its good and bad moments, but in the Third Season, the continual behind the scenes changes and instability of the cast led to one of the less satisfactory seasons. The potential for brilliant work was hampered by poor execution or acting. Richard Marson remembers season three
• The Longleat Report - Doctor Who model maker Stuart Evans explores the re-launched Longleat Exhibition
• Travelling Companions - Liz Shaw; not only was she with the Doctor for a very short time, but she was also one of the few companions who did not take a trip in the TARDIS.
