The term Inside the World of Doctor Who describes both a live event and the video recording of that event. Presented jointly by BAFTA and the London Children's Film Festival, the live educational event happened at London's Barbican Centre on Saturday 29th November 2008, and was was attended by about 2,000 fans. The video debuted on the BAFTA website on 15th December 2008.
The event was somewhat akin to a live version of Totally Doctor Who, and even featured one of that show's presenters, Kirsten O'Brien. It allowed the audience to get at least a superficial glimpse of what it was like to do some of the main behind-the-scenes jobs on Doctor Who. Also like Totally, it was quite specifically for children; the Barbican's website warned that "unaccompanied adults will not be admitted".
Amongst the highlights of the event were:
- Russell T Davies demonstrating the writing process by making up a story in one minute from kids' random suggestions
- Neill Gorton showing off a Slitheen prosthetic and a radio-controlled Dalek mutant
- Ben Foster showing how incidental music must match the mood of the scene, and demonstrating how to a character theme can be composed (or leitmotif)
- Danny Hargreaves using practical effects onstage to "blow up" a Cyberman
- Will Cohen discussing the use of CGI in creating monsters onscreen
