''The Sixties'' is the definitive record of those early years when ''Doctor Who'' developed its unique character. It provides a fascinating insight into a production process very different from the sophisticated studio methods of today and tells something of the political wrangling within the BBC which nearly ended the series before it had properly begun. Actors, writers, directors and crew recall their contributions in a decade which saw the move from primitive one-take studio sets to more elaborate and realistic location filming. The creative and technical processes involved in making ''Doctor Who'' on all aspects of British culture in the sixties. Films and exhibitions are also covered, along with the many toys and games which flooded the maket. | ''The Sixties'' is the definitive record of those early years when ''Doctor Who'' developed its unique character.
