Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who the Eighties by David J. Howe Doctor Who Toy History Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who the Eighties by David J. Howe Doctor Who Toy History. This history of Doctor Who toys is subdivided into pages for each decade, beginning here with the 1960s. Links to some of the main toy manufacturers can be found on the left hand menu. New vintage Doctor Who toys and features are added all the time. Those who wish to learn more should consult the excellent Howe's Transcendental Toybox (Telos, 2003) by David J Howe & Arnold T Blumberg or join the Forum. The Early Days. When Doctor Who started back in 1963 the kind of sophisticated merchandising we have today just didn't exist. Nonethless with the growing popularity of the show it wasn't long before the promotional possibilities began to be realised. And the toys just kept getting better. Louis Marx. From their very first introduction in The Daleks (1963), the 'pepper pots' were an instant success, ushering in the era of 'dalekmania'. Toy Daleks first glided into production with the Rolykins Daleks, which came out in the early 60s. All kinds of Rolykins had been previously made, the Dalek version being the latest creation from Marx Toys to roll along on a ball bearing. These Dalek figures were the first miniature toys at around an inch high. The Rolykins Marx Daleks were available in black, silver and red. Read more about Dalek toy history. The first Marx Dalek, and arguably the first Doctor Who figure, was the battery powered 'robot action' Dalek. As well as a flashing head, this early Dalek could, with the aid of its casters, change direction when it bumped into something. This model proved so successful for Marx toys that it was revised and stayed in production well into the 70's. The 60's versions were released in black or silver; 70's versions were in red or yellow. The Marx Daleks were actually used in the series twice to make the Dalek armies look bigger, once in the Second Doctor story Evil of the Daleks (1967) then the Third Doctor story Planet of the Daleks (1973). 1960s Marx Dalek & 1970s Marx Dalek. Marx not only made the first Doctor Who figures but also the first Doctor Who toys. Like the Marx Dr Who and the Daleks bagatelle game from the mid 60's where bonus points could be scored by landing a ball in the Skaro pocket Marx. Selcol. The 1965 Selcol Dr Who Nursery Toy Dalek (blue and silver with red arms) was a 12" figure sold by Woolworths in a clear plastic sleeve with a card header. The Selcol Dalek had a stopper underneath that could be removed to fill the dalek with water or sand. The eye stalk, plunger and weapon arm are all removable. The base states 'Under Licence, Selcol, Remove to Fill with Ballast, Made in England'. Lincoln. Lincoln International cornered the 60s niche market for anti-dalek guns. Dr Who's Anti-Dalek Neutron Exterminator was made by Lincoln International (London) UK Ltd in 1965. The Neutron Exterminator was a cap gun. Lincoln also made a water pistol version of the dalek gun - Dr Who's Anti-Dalek Jet Immobiliser. Click for more about the Anti-Dalek Gun. Dr Who's Anti-Dalek Neutron Exterminator & Anti-Dalek Jet Immobiliser. Complimenting the Neutron Exterminator and Jet Immobiliser was the Lincoln Dr Who's Anti-Dalek Sonic Disintegrator, a blue and white phaser gun in plastic. Cowan de Groot (Codeg) The 1960's Cowan de Groot or Codeg Clockwork Dalek (blue) featured 'realistic action' and wind up key. Like Louis Marx toys the Codeg daleks are highly sought after; tough to find in original box with all non-repro parts. Codeg also released the silver Dalek Money Box Codeg. Cherilea. Epitomising 1960's dalekmania, Cherilea Toys Ltd made the colourful plastic pocket-money toy Swappit Daleks retailing loose at outlets like Woolworths for a shilling. The 3 inch tall Cherilea dalek figures had three moveable and swapable sections which were initially released in light blue, black or silver. Cherilea also released a Mechanoid toy available in the same colours and smaller than the Herts version Cherilea. Cherilea Dalek circa 1965 Thanks Del. In 1965 Chad Valley released the Give A Show Projector with a range of Doctor Who story slides. The mid 60's also saw the release of Doctor Who's Astro Ray Dalek Gun, a battery operated torch and dart gun by Bell. Bell Toys Ltd also released 'Cutta-mastic Doctor Who and the Daleks' which involved cutting sheets of polystyrene into dalek shapes with a heated tool. The larger version (pictured) dates from 1965; a smaller boxed version was released from 1966. Bell Toys Dalek Eraza Board Set contained six wipeable dalek-themed colouring boards.` The Dalek Wonder Slate was a tracing game while Bell's Dalek Oracle was a board game featuring a small plastic magnetic 'pointing' dalek. From 1965 Bell Toys released the Daleks Wonder Slate, a pocket-money toy. In 2010 a mint example sold for £630 on ebay. Herts. From 1965 Herts Plastic Moulders Ltd released a 7" Dalek found in black or silver; the silver version has black appendages, the black Herts Dalek has silver appendages. The Herts Dalek retailed exclusively at Woolworths and came sealed in a printed plastic bag with the warning 'Be- Ware-Earth-Man-I-Am-A-Dalek'. Herts Plastic Moulders Daleks could be pushed along on their small wheeled undercarriages. Herts also released their version of the Mechanoid which was larger than the Cherilea version and had extendable orange arms. The earliest and rarest Dalek Dressing Up Costume is by Scorpion Automotives; stocks of these were very limited due to a fire at the production plant in 1964. The other similar sixties role-play toy was the Berwick Toy Company Dalek Playsuit dating from 1965. Main Page. Welcome to BroaDWcast , a comprehensive online guide to the foreign airdates and worldwide transmissions of classic era Doctor Who . WHAT IS BROADWCAST ? Over the years, the BBC has claimed that " Doctor Who has been seen by 110 million viewers in 60 countries around the world". But what are those 60 countries? When did Doctor Who screen? What stories were broadcast, and what stories weren't? How many stories made their foreign debut in Australia? How many debuted in the United States? And do any of those 110 million viewers have a copy of missing story Marco Polo? BroaDWcast answers those questions - except for the bit about Marco Polo. In these pages, you will find: Profiles on over 80 countries where classic Doctor Who aired Foreign language episode titles Translations of some of the Arabic narrations Checklists of the official BBC Records that have been researched Images of TV listings pages from foreign newspapers and magazines Clicking on the AIRDATES icon on the country profile pages will take you to the airdates summary for that country (N/S = means that the story title is Not Stated in the newspaper listing) The emphasis of BroaDWcast is on terrestrial over cable or satellite broadcasts of the "Classic Era" of Doctor Who - that's the first eight Doctors, from 1963 to 1996. The new series – 2005 to date – will have to be another project for another time. However, Benjamin F Elliott's online guide to THIS WEEK IN DOCTOR WHO is currently archived, and as a place-holder we have compiled our own list of countries known to have aired the new series since 2005.

As with any research of this nature, there are gaps in the information - and perhaps even errors. If you can assist us in any way by filling in any of the gaps, or if you've got additional information, such as foreign newspaper articles, clippings, copies of TV listings, or sales literature that we can use, or if you spot something that is wrong or you just disagree with, please drop us a line at: Some general research tips.

  • The Hinchcliffe/Holmes Era of Doctor Who (1975-77) Matt Hills
    ‘Gothic’ Body Parts in a ‘Postmodern’ Body of Work? The Hinchcliffe/Holmes Era of Doctor Who (1975-77) Matt Hills (1) The names Philip Hinchcliffe and Robert Holmes may not be greatly familiar to many academic readers of this volume, unless, that is, they also happen to be fans of the (1963-1989, 1996, 2005-) BBC TV series Doctor Who. Hinchcliffe was the producer of this series on all episodes originally transmitted in the UK between 25/1/1975 and 2/4/77, while Holmes was script editor on all material broadcast between 28/12/74 and 17/12/77. However, he went un-credited in this role on stories where he was named as writer, due to BBC regulations which forbade script editors to commission from themselves (see Howe and Walker, 1998). In story terms, Philip Hinchcliffe produced ‘The Ark in Space’ through to ‘The Talons of Weng-Chiang’, whilst Holmes script-edited stories running from ‘Robot’ through to ‘The Sun Makers’ (1977). Under Hinchcliffe as producer, Holmes also wrote ‘The Ark in Space’, ‘The Deadly Assassin’ and ‘The Talons of Weng-Chiang’, and effectively wrote, or at least heavily reworked, ‘The Pyramids of Mars’ and ‘The Brain of Morbius’ (on-screen, these were attributed to the pseudonyms Stephen Harris and Robin Bland). Today, Philip Hinchcliffe is a regular contributor to DVD commentaries and features accompanying ‘his’ Doctor Who stories. Robert Holmes passed away on 24th May, 1986: his overall contribution to Doctor Who is the subject of a documentary on the DVD release of the (1985) story ‘The Two Doctors’.

    TRANSMEDIA Boni (ed.) Transmedia, Fans, Industries Fans, Transmedia, World Building World Edited by Marta Boni World Building Transmedia, Fans, Industries World Building Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.

  • NARRATIVA AD INFINITUM La Narrativa Transmedia De Doctor Who
    NARRATIVA AD INFINITUM La narrativa transmedia de Doctor Who | Título de trabajo Narrativa ad infinitum: La narrativa transmedia de Doctor Who | Estudios Comunicación Audiovisual | Tutor/a Dra. Inmaculada Gordillo Álvarez Firma con el visto bueno del tutor | Agradecimientos | La elaboración de este estudio no habría sido posible sin el apoyo de aquellos que me han ayudado a sacarlo adelante, bien con consejos o correcciones, bien con paciencia; pero sobre todo, con la ayuda desinteresada y la confianza que en más de una ocasión ha sido necesaria. Estoy en deuda con Juanma Asencio, mi “portavoz” en la Universidad de Sevilla mientras estaba de intercambio SICUE en la Pompeu Fabra, y quien ha hecho posible la entrega de este documento, entre otros quebraderos de cabeza que le habré causado. Gracias también a Rafa Cabeza, siempre dispuesto a escuchar mis problemas y a darles una solución optimista. Que el triángulo Draper-Olson-Holloway sea infinito donde la serie no pudo serlo. También en deuda con Sofia Izquierdo, cuyo inmenso conocimiento sobre Doctor Who ha sido clave para este trabajo. Agradecerle además sus lecturas desinteresadas y su apoyo en todo momento. Gracias a Raquel Crisóstomo por confiar en mi trabajo incondicionalmente, así como por las charlas tan enriquecedoras en las que las dudas no lo eran tanto; a Cristina Aguilera por estar ahí siempre, apostando por un trabajo que uno mismo olvida valorar; a Manu Montes por ser el apoyo moral que todo SICUE necesita, ese hombro virtual en el que apoyarse (o físico, después de muchas horas de Valencia en Fallas); a Carlos Scolari, por sus pequeñas masterclass ante cualquier duda; y a Alba Rosillo, por sus consejos y ayuda con el diseño gráfico de la presentación.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who the Eyeless by Lance Parkin Theeyeless
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who The Eyeless by Lance Parkin theeyeless. Well, it's Boxing Day, and The Eyeless is officially out in the shops. As promised, my blogging ends here. Thanks for reading, I hoped you enjoyed some insight into the making of the book. As I said in the various entries, there's no one way to write. I'm sure a lot of other writers reading my stuff about 'the process of writing' would have been baffled and bewildered because so little of it was like their own process. If you're an aspiring writer, good luck and the trick is to actually write stuff, not just to want to if only you had the time. This blog's still here and it's not going anywhere . please feel free to post reviews, comments, links to reviews about The Eyeless here and so on. I'll still be here to answer questions. Thanks again, and a Merry Christmas to all you at home. Sunday, 21 December 2008. Death Ray Interview. Tuesday, 16 December 2008. Approved and Proved. OK … so here’s a quick description of the various stages a Doctor Who book goes through once the manuscript has been delivered. This is an author’s eye view, of course. Which is a polite way of saying that, for an author, a lot of this is pretty much invisible – you hand your book to someone, a few weeks after that you get back a list of comments and you don’t do very much with your book in the mean time.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Decalog 3 Consequences by Andy Lane Virgin Decalog
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Decalog 3 Consequences by Andy Lane Virgin Decalog. The Virgin Decalog books were collections of short stories published by Virgin Publishing based on the television series Doctor Who : they gained their name from the fact that each volume contained ten stories (although the last collection contains eleven). Five volumes were published between 1994 and September 1997, although volumes 4 and 5 did not feature the Doctor or any other non-Virgin copyrighted characters. This is because the BBC decided not to renew Virgin's licence to produce original fiction featuring the Doctor or any characters featured in the TV series (Virgin transitioned to featuring characters created for literature over which the BBC had no rights). Following this, the BBC began producing their own Doctor Who fiction, including short stories under the name Short Trips . Contents. The Books Decalog Decalog 2: Lost Property Decalog 3: Consequences Decalog 4: Re-Generations Decalog 5: Wonders See also. The Books. Decalog. The first volume of stories published was Decalog (Virgin, 17 March 1994), edited by Mark Stammers and Stephen James Walker. It contained the following stories: Title Author Doctor/Companion Playback Stephen James Walker Seventh Doctor Fallen Angel Andy Lane Second Doctor, Jamie & Zoe The Duke of Dominoes Marc Platt Fourth Doctor, Sarah Jane Smith The Straw That Broke the Camel's Back Vanessa Bishop Third Doctor, Liz, UNIT Scarab of Death Mark Stammers Fourth Doctor, Sarah Jane Smith The Book of Shadows Jim Mortimore First Doctor, Ian & Barbara Fascination David J.

Tell me what you know, so I can tell you that youre wrong. Gallifrey. The Doctors home planet. For twenty thousand centuries the Gallifreyans have been the most powerful race in the cosmos. They have circumnavigated infinity and eternity, harnessed science and conquered death. They are the Lords of Time, and have used their powers carefully. But now a new force has been unleashed, one that is literally capable of anything. It is enough to give even the Time Lords nightmares. More than that: it is enough to destroy them. It is one of their own. Waiting for them at the end of the universe. Featuring the Eighth Doctor, this adventure celebrates the thirty-fifth anniversary of Doctor Who. Eighteen years can be a long time. Its the space of time that separates William Hartnell in An Unearthly Child from Tom Baker in Logopolis. Its the space of time that separates Sylvester McCoy in Remembrance Of The Daleks from David Tennant in Doomsday. Its also the period of time, give or take a month or two, from when Im writing the review of Lance Parkins The Infinity Doctors.
