"The story of ''Doctor Who'' is the story of the hopes and fears of generations of children - and grown-ups too - from the counter culture 60s to the 90s. Along the way there are shock revelations, melodramatic cliff-hangers and liberal doses of humour (intentional or otherwise); but be warned - there is also heart-ache, disappointment and death. Cancelled in 1989, the rumour mill is now in overdrive eith stories of the Time Lord's possible return." | "The story of ''Doctor Who'' is the story of the hopes and fears of generations of children - and grown-ups too - from the counter culture 60s to the 90s.
